NJPW’s Kazuchika Okada attends Raw and Smackdown

New Japan Pro Wrestling megastar Kazuchika Okada attended both Monday Night Raw and Smackdown Live this week and was allowed to stay in the Gorilla Position throughout the shows.

Okada, one of the most gifted professional wrestlers in the world, was shaking hands with everyone before and after they went through the curtain according to rapper Raheem Jarbo, better known as Mega Ran. Mega Ran attended one of the tapings and even posted a photo with Okada. “Watching a legend be that humble and respectful was super inspiring,” he said, adding that he congratulated and wished everyone luck as they made their way in and out.

Finn Balor, who knows Okada from his days in Japan, posted a photo on his Instagram with him after his match on Raw and The Rainmaker sported his Balor Club jacket.

The 29-year-old Japanese star who is the current IWGP Heavyweight Champion and is also known as The Rainmaker was in the country to be part of the NJPW G1 Special in USA shows during the past weekend.
