□Comment
"I am Kazuchika Okada from New Japan Pro-Wrestling!
I will be attending the J-League opening match!
The first soccer match I ever watched live was at Ajinomoto Stadium 13 years ago! FC Tokyo vs Kyoto Sanga F.C.!
I still remember the excitement of that time!
I will also watch the game with everyone at the stadium, so let's cheer together!
"It's raining money for FC Tokyo!"

【Okada Kazuchika Player Profile】
Born on November 8, 1987.
After defeating Hiroshi Tanahashi in February 2012, Kazuchika Okada became the second youngest (at the time, 24 years old) to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. Since then, he has continued to have remarkable success and is known as the "Rainmaker" in the world of professional wrestling, bringing financial success wherever he goes.
Wrapped in a golden gown, the Rainmaker doll with his face imprinted on it dances and twirls in the entrance scene, showcasing the unparalleled splendor of New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
Backed by a well-built physique of 191cm and exceptional athleticism, his high-impact dropkicks and devastating Rainmaker are a must-see. With his handsome appearance and unique presence, his battles have captured the hearts of women who were not interested in professional wrestling, making him a driving force behind the "Puroresu Girls" boom.
He also appears in dramas, variety shows, and events.
