The story I think they’re telling with Okada is that his lay back attitude is making him lose, since he’s lost the title he’s lost to White and ZSJ. I feel Okada is going to lose his next few matches and then he’ll shape back into his old self leading to him winning the rest of his matches. But I’m not really breaking news there with that idea.
On a different note, I do hope this is a break out year for Hangman. There is something there with him and I think good showings will make him something special. He’s kind of in a bad spot as he feels like random Bullet Club guy but I think there’s so much more there with him.
