At Pro Wrestling Noah's empty arena TV match, "NOAH New Hope Day 2", Kinya Okada, the expected new hope, underwent the ordeal of a singles match with Mohammed Yone where he was sunk on the mat after being baptized with Yone's "48 Murder Techniques*".

Okada, who has been having increased singles matches and becoming more intense, even in this match showed an aggressive attitude by attacking his senior, with strikes such as his kicking speciality. In the middle of the match, the attacks flowed such as high kicks from Taekwondo, high kicks, side kicks and blockbusters. In the narrow ring, he showed a good fight with a RBI* and a one foot drop kick, but despite the fierce battle, Yone changed the pace with an intense lariat. 

When Yone lifted Okada into the position of the deadly "Kinniku Buster", the viewers shouted "Here comes The Kinniku Buster" as he was dropped on to his back. Okada, who had been sunk into the mat, heard a count of three. 

Among the cheering for the special move such as "The Kinniku Buster is too strong" and "Kinniku Buster has a very high win rate", there were also voices saying that Yone was holding back and had not dropped him out of kindness. 

Although Okada had lost after a good fight, he had lost two consecutive singles at "New Hope" following a previous match with Hajime Ohara. However, his appearance the other day on "Detective! Night Scoop!" in which he settled a thirteen year quarrel with his sister, has received a great deal of attention and has attracted attention among professional wrestling fans. 

Even if he lost, the content of what came out is good, and the viewers sent good luck saying, "Okakin's form is gradually emerging", "He lost, but he did good dropkicks" and "there is room for growth."

Okada continues to challenge single opponents at events in the theme of Noah's new generation. His growth is likely to be a highlight of future competitions.
