5 Top Indy Stars Who Won't be Signing with WWE Anytime Soon

#3 Kazuchika Okada

The Rainmaker, Kazuchika Okada is regarded as one of the best professional wrestlers alive. All 4 of his matches with Kenny Omega received a rating of 6 or higher (the highest being 7) on the Dave Meltzer scale. Okada’s 720 day reign as the IWGP Heavyweight Champion is the longest in company’s history. Okada is also the highest paid wrestler in NJPW earning nearly as much as a top star of WWE. Moreover, Okada can also reach the finals of G1 Climax 28 if EVIL defeats Jay White and Okada defeats Tanahashi. If Okada reaches the final, we can expect to see another Scale-breaker bout between Okada and Omega.

Taking all of the above points into consideration, there’s no need for Okada to leave NJPW for WWE. Okada is a millionaire and isn’t bounded or limited by the creative department. Almost all of his matches are appreciated. There’s no need for Okada to join WWE right now and although he has achieved almost everything in NJPW, there are still many untold stories to tell for the Rainmaker.
