Kazuchika Okada Talks His Best in The World Status – ‘For this era, there can be nobody but me.’

IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada recently spoke to Yahoo Japan on a variety of topics. Japanese wrestling pundit Chris Charlton (@reasonjp) translated some of what New Japan’s ‘Ace’ had to say and it makes for some interesting reading:
