#2 Kenny Omega
While this is always going to be a fun debate, most people within the wrestling community can agree that Omega and Okada had arguably the best rivalry in New Japan history, and are the standout picks for #1 and #2 on this list. Whether you like the theatrics and athleticism that Omega brings or the pure striking and psychology of Okada, there's no denying their greatness, but today, we have Omega being edged out for #1.
Kenny is still an incredible performer, and the list of fantastic matches the Best Bout Machine has had over the past 3 years are as long as anyone in the business, and with AEW's beginning on the horizon, he will keep that going. Wrestling is all about getting fans to react, and whether that's through his breathtaking aerial offence or his sometimes over the top personality, Omega lays it all on the line every time he steps foot inside the ring, and it's garnered him universal respect from wrestling fans around the world.
