JR on Okada & Tanahashi in WWE
As noted, Jim Ross recently spoke with Sports Illustrated’s Extra Mustard , and below is what Ross had to say about NJPW stars Kazuchika Okada and Hiroshi Tanahashi in WWE:
“Okada and Tanahashi have great skill levels. They would be main event guys in anybody’s territory, even WWE. They’re both skilled enough to be a main eventer in that company or anywhere else. You just have a feel for greatness, and when I first called Steamboat-Flair back in ’89, and Rock-Austin in WWE, there is just a feel for how it looks, the texture of it, the buzz it creates for the audience, and those guys have that.”
