Bronson Reed reflects on beating Kazuchika Okada.
Reed previously had a successful tenure in NXT, and he won the NXT North American Championship, but WWE released him in a wave of cuts in August 2021. He then had a prominent run with NJPW and IMPACT Wrestling. Under the name JONAH, he faced a number of stars in both promotions, including Josh Alexander, PCO, Jeff Cobb, and more.
JONAH competed in the G1 Climax 32 and scored a major victory when he defeated Kazuchika Okada on the thirteenth night of action). Okada is one of NJPW's top stars, as he is a former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion and a five-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion.
Reed took to Twitter on August 7 and reflected on defeating Okada on the one-yera anniversary of the match. He stated that all he needs is to be given the opportunity, and he can slay any golden goose.
