【Okada Kazuchika Player Profile】
Born on November 8, 1987. 6th World Heavyweight Champion (as of March 8 (Wed))
In February 2012, he defeated Hiroshi Tanahashi and became the youngest (at the age of 24) to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. Since then, he has continued to have a remarkable career and is known as the "Rainmaker" in the world of professional wrestling, bringing in money wherever he goes. That is Okada Kazuchika.
The entrance scene where the Rainmaker doll with your own face dances is the most glamorous in New Japan Pro Wrestling.
A high drop kick with a strong impact and a one-hit kill Rainmaker, backed by a 191cm tall and outstanding physical ability, is a must-see. With a handsome face and a unique presence, his fights have captured the hearts of female fans who were not interested in pro wrestling, making him a driving force behind the "Puroresu Joshi" boom.
Appears in many dramas, variety shows, and events.
