"Yes. Before I retire, I will participate. That's for sure," Claudio told BILD when asked about potentially competing in a G1 Climax tournament.

Claudio made his NJPW debut at NJPW Dominion in June, teaming with Jon Moxley & Shota Umino to take on CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada & Tomohiro Ishii) & Hiroshi Tanahashi for the NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Titles.

Claudio is the reigning ROH World Champion and set to compete in Stadium Stampede at AEW All In.
