Hiroshi Tanahashi : Post match highlight from 'SAKURA GENESIS 2018’ Apr 1 2018 [English subs]

[@user-bl2zw2ph9i]

この2人は本当にアツい… 面白くないっていってるのは最近好きになられた方かな…？ 是非一からみていただきたい…

[@tellder1]

Love it how Tanahashi is what you could call a hero and Okada, though a good guy, cocky af.

[@HellwingX1]

"He looks very stylish" & "He's so cool". Also, the earth is round

[@KatchouroBlade]

Man, how much does Vince wish he could get away with getting Michael Cole to say that about Roman Reigns every week.

[@PLUX4]

Okada: "Of course I'm not saying that, bastard." LOL

[@Sarabheswaran7010]

6:51

[@jaleesagreene6800]

Tanahashi's hair is on fleek. He has so much natural charisma and swag.

[@nelkam5543]

Even after almost 2 years since their last bout, Tanahashi vs Okada still gets my blood pumping with excitement! This will likely be the match to truly settle their program once and for all.

[@user-lq3jb6vf4r]

なんかこの2人信頼しあってるって感じがして好きだなぁ

[@myworld-ty7tw]

してねーだろ

[@Rui_Stormysea]

[@exunderscorejai]

I love the Japanese crowds. They're so much more genuine and appreciative.

[@emiliohernvndez]

One of the best rivalries in all of modern pro wrestling and dare I see of all time

[@amrwrestler4525]

I hav been waiting 4 the return of the fued between Okada n Tanahashi. Tanahashi the real ACE!

[@motomiya4309]

オカダやっぱマイク上手くなったね

[@nickbas2487]

I watched this yesterday without subs and it was an amazing promo. Watching it now, wow, Okada is The Man

[@rohitvk_9752]

Time for showbuckle to get down to business again 😅😅

[@JC-ef8me]

Proud Metalhead_29 Can't wait 😂

[@BlackWind90]

Yeah, somewhere in the world Showbuckle is going "oh crap....here we go again...."

[@DESPICABLEVIDEO]

Showbuckles videos are so great for explaining the stories of new japan!

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

I love that channel

[@Vercingetorix.Fantasia]

# OuttaNoWhere we all do

[@libosen]

Tanahashi is one stylish man

[@kimwaddell4218]

When I watch these guys wrestle no matter who they face my mind is completely is completely blown away.

[@freakzeke6404]

It's up to The Ace now. The rain can't be made to shower New Japan forever or a century.

[@YuutoHiroshige]

Nathan Okada hasn’t face “Heavyweight” Ibushi one on one in a title match yet.

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

Nathan Naito can

[@Vercingetorix.Fantasia]

# OuttaNoWhere naito will next wk

[@JavierRodriguez17565]

Freak Zeke ibushi will beat okada at dominion, Mark my words

[@NFrk97]

Dominant, you say? I think a certain Wrestler may disagree with you on that.

[@Kouenji_God]

もう一度！！ GO ACE !!!

[@tyson1fan487]

Okada is so good! No wonder they didn't give omega the title.. He's on another level and what I love about njpw is to see guys like Sabre Jr getting heavyweight championship matches! In WWE he's cruiser weights maybe nxt champ? But then look how loaded WWE is! All brands.. Even UK guys!

[@BlackWind90]

It's actually very interesting, history tells that Okada often loses when he gets too cocky....especially in his matches with Tanahashi he mostly lost when he looked overconfident or too emotional....that wil sure play into the match, whatever the outcome is....but once again, great storytelling, it was so greatly done up until this point that it was actually hard to find a way to write a new chapter in the story...the record works greatly into this one, as Okada came in and stopped Tanahashi at eleven title defenses and no one gave him a chance and now Tanahashi comes in to stop Okada at eleven and most fans are not giving HIM a chance....everything is coming full circle and as much as Okada winning seems to be the obvious choice, this is Tanahashi we're talking about so you really, REALLY never know.

[@radusocol2613]

Tana's right, the roles have changed. Now he's the one that has to stop Okada.

[@MJfp6lx]

Super Roman vs Super Cena vs Super Okada. Infinite kick out at 2 match.

[@schippko1039]

Omega Styles Cena vs reigns wasnt filled with that much closefalls tbh

[@DragonHeart613]

One of Pro Wrestling's greatest rivalries in any promotion worldwide is reborn at last!!! C'mon Tanahashi-san, beat Okada & call yourself the champ one more time!!! GO ACE GO :)

[@user-ud9nj2vc1w]

[@user-kh6yo7gy9f]

AsT7〆ララ 言ってるよ

[@bitw2001]

YES! One of the best feuds in NJPW for the longest time renewed once again

[@The1AndOnlyGoldenboy]

Hiroshi Tanahashi is how you book a "white meat babyface", as the term goes. The guy is just so genuinely nice in everything he does, it's difficult to really hate him. Some other companies could stand to learn this lesson.

[@countrylife04]

the coin sound at the start of Okada's music is so badass 💸💸💸💸💸

[@July9326]

Tanahashi rocking that speak to the manager haircut

[@arvindshastry1178]

Hiroshi Tanahashi is the John Cena of New Japan pro wrestling

[@user-es3po1tr5p]

Okada vs.Tanahashi: The Rivalry Renewed

[@benruiz1009]

LETS GO! THE SAGA WILL GO ON AND THESE TWO GREATS WILL BATTLE ONCE AGAIN.

[@masteroffailurable]

Yeah!! finally they are gonna have a match again! I have been waiting for them to fight again after Okada transcend into another level 😆 pretty much only Tanahashi can match up so well with Okada its like they know what the other are going to do next lol.

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

Tana is probably the only one who can match up to Okada so well

[@lukakai5932]

It took him 1 minutes to changes his clothes...lol

[@masteroffailurable]

He looks very stylish XD

[@ksrnpsrn]

It takes so long to do his hair every time.

[@user-ie7ii9cs5n]

一瞬棚橋可愛く見えた(笑) やっと見れる！ 棚橋対オカダ!！

[@Sarcopagusmonster]

When it rains it pours! Okada forever

[@TheVampireLucinda]

I love this so much.

[@patricksavage242]

I just realized two things: 1. The only one Okada hasn't beaten in his current reign is Tanahashi. 2. The Dominion is where is his current reign started two years ago. So when he beats Tanahashi, he's not only breaking the record for title defenses against the guy who set the previous record but he'll also be a champion for two years.

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

Patrick Savage He hasn't fought Ibushi yet

[@edgarjimenez7771]

# OuttaNoWhere technically he has but not defended the title

[@YuutoHiroshige]

Luis Luna being the Junior heavyweight champion at the time. Now Ibushi is a Heavyweight, he is by far the only believable challenger after Okada would most likely beat Tanahashi.

[@KatchouroBlade]

Company men like Yujiro or Taichi have a better chance of winning the belt than Ibushi. Don't underestimate how high NJPW are on Jay White. He's their boy and he's already gone over Omega. Back when he joined Chaos he sowed seeds that he wanted to take on Okada eventually. I think he'll be the guy to end Okada's reign, then that brings Naito and Omega back into the title contention scene.

[@edgarjimenez7771]

YuutoHiroshige but Okada did beat Ibushi

[@lostapwbm2790]

And the circle is now complete. Okada is the seemingly unbeatable, cocky champion. Tanahashi is the underdog.

[@user-tv4uo6pk7g]

棚橋かっこよすぎ

[@Rnzzy]

One more great match in a fantastic rivalry. Tanahashi will obviously lose so it'll make Okada's record breaking win all the more poetic. We all know that Kenny will eventually beat Okada for the championship. It's just a matter of time.

[@rainmakerXuzair]

This is awesome!!!

[@hk-yn6zp]

やっぱりオカダのたたずまいは凄いなぁ 尊敬まで至る

[@user-pm4ru6ty9e]

内藤がダメ、ケニーがダメ。。。 もう棚橋が最後の砦やなぁ。

[@thesupervader400]

It's gonna be epic, I mixed on who I want to win, Okada is probaly the best face of Pro Wrestling right now, but I want to see Hiroshi Tanahashi get one more run at the top before he turns 40.

[@user-uy1gb8sp7j]

単刀直入に言う…… カッケーよ！！！

[@Biosynthnut]

That belt has gone to his head. His loss will be epic. If..if The Ace can win.

[@roadster7]

IWGPは遠いぞがなつかしいw

[@JC-ef8me]

Can't wait to see Okada's 100th challenger

[@beaujacobs8294]

Does anybody else think Tanahashi is the human embodiment of a lion, Still my favourite

[@YutonP-0321]

すっかりチャンピオンやな マイクパフォーマンスも成長したなぁ

[@user-rl3yq1be2t]

カプチーノ難民 ほんとにな、

[@user-gu5sz5ur3d]

あと1回棚橋の時代が来るから！

[@rabisingh2029]

One more match! Hell yeah.

[@sadiah92]

Tanahashi is just amazing.

[@iaminsanity2238]

That'll be another good match, and if it is his last match in New Japan, that will be a great send-off

[@Beastly_911]

Okada’s confidence is going to get the best of him.

[@angelomarasigan4347]

Damn. Tanahashi's hair grows fast.

[@user-mj2ud2uz7e]

棚橋内藤ぐらいの最高のシナリオ！どっち勝ってもおもしろい

[@bellsboy]

WWE and Vince McMannequin take note, THIS is how you book and create a renewal of a great feud but this time the stakes are higher than the last time they met for the IWGP title 4 years ago.

[@hiroshitanahashi963]

See you soon, Okada. It is my time for breaking your streak. There is place for the one and only ACE, and that guy is me.

[@jspees88]

When Tanahashi got to V11, it was Okada that beat him in his next defense. Only fitting that Tanahashi gets to try and end Okada's reign.

[@user-ox5bk7sz7g]

変わってないwww 棚橋かってくれぇぇ！ PS 棚橋vs中邑がもう一度みたいです

[@cogitoergosum344]

これは熱い！ 結果はどうなってもこれは泣ける試合だ

[@user-gy7pg2qj6p]

棚橋かっこいいな

[@YKTS15]

Give Tanahashi one more run with the title

[@Gawdzillest]

Blitzify pshh

[@kuroshinko427]

Tanahashi is pretty banged up and I'm not sure if he's up for another title reign.

[@JC-ef8me]

Blitzify I would love one last run before tanahashi retires

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

Blitzify One more time before retirement

[@nochill4818]

Blitzify I feel like one more small run, then naito should come into the picture, should be a 3 way match, okada, tanahashi, and naito

[@yourfriendlyneighborhoodsm4708]

Chills

[@greenstary.t1415]

please bring back the old attire okada

[@Bobbo993]

So he survived Omega ×2 , Suzuki , Naito , Evil , Sanada , Fale , ZSJ , Cody , Shibata and you telling me he's gonna lose to broken , banged up Tana ! No way

[@ralpheykenveloso3211]

God fucking damn it.. why am i only seeing this now???? I have 3 years of catching up to do...

[@repekyo7344]

この頃のオカダと外道がちょうどいいヒール感があって好きだなー てかこれ5年前なの？ つい最近の事かと思うくらいびっくり😂

[@user-fs6ss9yv3t]

tbh, I want to see Okada defend the IWGP World Championship in his 100th title defense. how many wrestlers win their belts only to lose it again and again and again?

[@user-dd8fg1kb3z]

棚橋オカダもいいけど…外道っちのマイクパフォーマンスほんますごい

Love the casual "bastard" dropped in there

[@user-uv6pp1xv7n]

ホンマめちゃくちゃ好きこの動画♥棚橋さんの世界中どこ探しても次の挑戦者俺しか居ないじゃん めちゃくちゃかっこよ過ぎて新幹線の中でめちゃくちゃ興奮したの覚えてる❓イヤホンしながら聴いてた

[@Kabra2012]

The one risk with a dominant champ is the predictability - it becomes hard to invest in a wrestler who you know will always win. It will eventually rob their future matches of any real drama. I'm not a fan of playing hot potato with a belt, but even Okada's skill level can't compensate for a predictable outcome

[@Luisknowstooons]

Will Okada summit his legacy to beat tanahashi’s championship title defense record by beating the man who made the record???? OR Will tanahashi for the last time in his career defeat okada and end his title winning streak to be IWGP champion to make sure his record is still safe and to make sure everyone still knows that he’s the ACE of NJPW *WE WILL FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGONBALL Z*

[@soniccrp417]

Let’s book it!!!

[@ridleyroid9060]

hol' up, how did i miss this? I swear to goodness gracious i watched till the very end of the show, including Gedou's promo, what?

会場の「GO！ACE！！」コールが棚橋に対するファンの期待を表している

[@arlenedevera2369]

Okada and Tanahashi💯 go,go,go!

[@rajasoomro1792]

Okada's championship reing should end by Omega already dragged it a bit super long

[@namenotfound34]

Hey New Japan get wireless mics the cables flapping around makes it seem low rent, like some outlaw bullshit from the early 00s, you know it's little things like this make a big difference in the presentation

[@solameencuentro]

NameNotFound fuck it! They have the best wrestlers, the best matches and the best rising company in the world!!!

[@dawgofrick3]

I didn't know how much I wanted Tanahashi to stop Okada until this clip. Now I'm totally fine if Tanahashi, not Omega, is the one to stop Okada.

[@shuntasano2024]

いい試合を期待してます

[@MaronkingstonOngaude]

Can nobody beat this man

[@adarsh5647]

Well , ibushi still hasn't challenged him ...

[@edgarjimenez7771]

The Joker he lost to okada

[@tomchien4212]

Luis Luna Not for the belt and as the heavyweight.

[@edgarjimenez7771]

Tom Chien Okada beat him at 45th anniversary show

[@martincherryanthias]

Luis Luna Luis Luna The anniversary Match was not a title Match. And I can tell you who has faced Okada in this current reign. They have been: Marufuji, Omega (twice), Suzuki, Shibata, Fale, Cody, Evil, Naito, Sanada and Sabre Jr. Those are the eleven defenses. Kota has not challenged for the title yet.

[@edgarjimenez7771]

gorgonargkanwulf rafiuqsa yeah but Okada still beat Ibushi

[@user-ow2pe8wi5h]

このカード待ってた！むっちゃ楽しみ！

[@ReligiousFanboy]

i'm excited

[@danielsonarcher580]

That because if u watch Zack matches in new japan cup he didn’t use same submission on Okada that beaten naito ibushi sanada an tanahashi has no one noticed that it shame I thought Zack should been the one but looks like these 2 again be good fight 🙂
