10 NJPW vs WWE dream matches that fans would love to see

#5 Brock Lesnar vs Kazuchika Okada

It’s only expected that fans would want to see two of the best from the two best promotions in the world face each other.

Kazuchika Okada is no doubt one of the best wrestlers on the planet at the moment. The IWGP Heavyweight Champion has taken on everyone who stepped up to challenge him, and he has put instant classic matches through his reign as champion. That leaves the question, who’s next to challenge the IWGP Champion. He has beaten everyone, and that leaves few challenges.

Brock Lesnar has been on a similar run as Universal Champion. He has beaten everyone who got in his way. His matches are brutal to watch. He mercilessly beats his opponent with a number of German suplexes taking them on a one way trip to ‘suplex city.’

Given how dominant these two have been in their respective promotions, it would only be fitting to have these two men face each other in what would be no less than an instant classic match. But, this match seems far less likely to take place since Brock Lesnar is going to leave WWE after WrestleMania 34.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
