The Young Bucks have high praise for their friend, AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada.
All Elite Wrestling‘s Matthew and Nicholas Jackson recently sat down with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated. When asked about the transformation that Okada has undergone since arriving in the company, Matthew couldn’t put his friend over enough for stepping outside his comfort zone.
“Okada has come to AEW and completely stepped out of his comfort zone,” Matthew Jackson said. “I couldn’t be prouder to see him trying new things and learning a new style. He’s a movie star with perfect timing, an unbelievable sense of humor, and he just so happens to be the greatest wrestler alive.
“I can tell you while he doesn’t exactly prefer being in these types of matches, he’s certainly having a damn good time. It would’ve been so easy to just come here and rely on the things he’s already known for. I’m so proud of him and his versatility.”
Nicholas Jackson also made it clear how much fun they’ve been having working with Okada this year and believes there’s no one better than The Rainmaker.
“Okada is the best,” Nicholas Jackson said. “He is performing so great and adapting to new matches he’s never been in as well as I’ve seen anyone be able to do it on the fly. It’s been so much fun working with him these last several months. There’s no one better.”
