Pacific Rim: Okada leaves NJPW, remembering Killer Khan

Pacific Rim: Okada leaves NJPW, remembering Killer Khan

Fumi Saito/Jim Valley

The Pacific Rim Pro Wrestling Podcast is back.

I get Fumi Saito’s thoughts on Kazuchika Okada leaving New Japan Pro Wrestling and he offered his insight on the dynamics and relationships behind the scenes in the company and speculates on the future of “The Rainmaker.”

Also, who can step up and fill the void left by his absence? 

We then remember Fumi’s friend Killer Khan. We go from Khan’s start in sumo, how he got his name, breaking Andre The Giant’s leg, his relationships with Hulk Hogan and Riki Choshu, and much more.
