Kazuchika Okada comments on the end of his NJPW contract.
As previously announced, five-time world champion Kazuchika Okada will leave NJPW following the expiration of his contract on January 31. Okada is set to finish up with the company with some final dates in February, but he will be a free agent following the end of January.
Okada took to Twitter/X and commented on the end of his contract on January 31. He thanked everyone for their support and noted that he looked forward to his last few matches with the company.
The statement is as follows (Translation via DeepL):
Thank you for your support for 17 years of New Japan Pro-Wrestling!
Thank you very much!
I laughed, got angry, cried, and it was great!
I look forward to the remaining three matches as a freelancer!
