During an interview with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated published this past week – Okada listed CM Punk as someone he would love to share the ring with.
Okada told S.I.
“Danielson and Punk would make for some incredible matches. A lot of those dream match scenarios are about getting excited for the possibilities, and once the match is done, it’s done. So it is important to keep that excitement and anticipation, I think. Still, if we wait too long, they’ll both retire eventually, so I want to face them both while they’re still active.”

The interview was quickly picked up by All Elite Wrestling Superstar CM Punk who quickly sent details of a “when and where” to meet to make the match happen with a Making It Rain – GIF in reference to Okada’s nickname ‘The Rainmaker’

I am sure there are many dream matches lined up for 2022 and hopefully if world wide restrictions ease more exciting match up’s can been booked
