Kazuchika Okada doesn’t hate TNA. 

On Sunday, Okada wrestled his first TNA match since his excursion to the company in 2010 and 2011. Following the show, Okada addressed the live crowd at the Palms Casino in Las Vegas.

“Thank you. Many people ask me ‘Why (do) you hate TNA?’ But I don’t hate TNA. Thank you, TNA!” Okada said.  

Fightful’s Joel Pearl posted footage of the segment: 

Okada teamed with the Motor City Machine Guns against The System’s Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, and the New TNA World Champion Moose on the show. Full spoilers from the taping are available here.  

The TNA taping in Las Vegas on Saturday followed Okada wrestling Will Ospreay in the main event of NJPW Battle in the Valley in San Jose the night before. Next up for Okada is Saturday’s New Beginning in Nagoya show. He’s scheduled to team with Hiroshi Tanahashi, Togi Makabe, and Tomohiro Ishii against TMDK’s Zack Sabre Jr, Mikey Nicholls, Shane Haste, and Kosei Fujita.
