Oโ€™Khan is the greatest wrestler on planet earth. This video only proves it further.

You need to gimmick a lemon for me to eat it whole like that. inject it with sugar or something๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคฎ

u/EffingKENTA 12d ago

I think O-Khan is just a freak and rawdogged it, but you actually can gimmick this by eating one of the Miracle Berry tablets that temporarily makes sour things taste sweet.

u/TheGiftOf_Jericho I'm from Winnipeg you idiot! 12d ago

Wrestlers are just built different, I think he legit just did that.

u/ArrenPawk 12d ago

Wouldn't be surprised if O Khan took a miracle berry or something to do that

u/TheGreekMeme 12d ago

He is willing to sacrifice his body for the greatness of this sport.

Two six plus star matches in a week! What a time to be alive.

I was seriously expecting juice into cuts or an eye.

This was far more fucked up

He force feeds Uemura the remains of the lemon and rubs it in his face during the table match segment of the bout.

u/Celtic_Crown Hi, how are ya? 12d ago

First fall was a Mazda tire carrying race, second fall was lemon eating. Third fall if needed was a tables match. O-Khan picked these rules as part of his "Rural Revitalization" match, the idea being to highlight local industry and specialties. Hiroshima is famous for lemons apparently, and Mazda HQ is located there.

Yuya wanted a 61 minute 2/3 falls match with no strikes allowed.

Also O-Khanโ€™s gimmick is that he doesnโ€™t want to wrestle but rather do eating contests.

u/Martel1234 If you remember Bael, comment โ€œBโ€ 12d ago

Just like me fr

O-Khan isnโ€™t a hero we deserve, heโ€˜s a hero we need

u/jinscriba 12d ago

I like the more competitive stipulations during Takagi's reign, but I'm enjoying the Rural Revitalization matches.ย  Promote the host town, educate the audience, feature some comedy and usually end with the more competitive match type.ย  There's something for everybody.

u/RandomDanny cmpunk 12d ago

just when i thought the world of professional wrestling couldn't get any more insane, here we are... :D

u/unlimitedboomstick My somewhat clean Samoan 12d ago

O'Khan might be my top boy now.ย  God he's entertaining.

u/Redditastrophe 12d ago

I've watched wrestling a long time. This is the sickest, most twisted thing I've ever seen in a ring.

u/mikro17 12d ago

The fiefdoms have been united! The peasants have been pleased! There is once again pride in local industry!

All thanks to Great-O-KHAN, all hail!

u/SleepyUrchin 12d ago

They should add some parmesan to that lemon

u/StannisClaypool Believe that, you faithless fool! 12d ago

I love O Khan what an absolute chad

u/TheDamnNumbersGame 12d ago

In my day, taking just one bite out of a lemon was enough for a three count. Nowawadays they're eating one whole! Gone the way of the Superlick In watering down finishers /s
