Saturday night was a big night for New Japan Pro Wrestling as the company presented the G1 Special from Long Beach, CA. There were a lot of eyes on NJPW last night, and a WWE Hall of Famer was in the house for the event. Steve Austin stopped by to watch some wrestling action, and he met up with the IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada.

Okada defended his IWGP Heavyweight Championship against current ROH World Champion Cody Rhodes during night 1 of the G1 Special, and he was able to defeat Cody to retain his title.

Steve Austin wasn’t the only celebrity watching the G1 Special on Saturday night, as Roseanne Barr also took to Twitter to praise the show. She posted a clip of her reaction to Kenny Omega’s match and she appears to be an Omega fan.

UFC Hall of Famer Stephan Bonnar is making the jump to professional wrestling, and on this week’s episode of Still Real Radio we’re talking all about it. Bonnar is teaming up with Phil Baroni to form a tag team called The Real Shooters and they’ll be wrestling their first match in just a few weeks.
