David Finlay Says NJPW Rings Have Turned Him Into A Ring Snob

David Finlay is something of a ring snob.

The son of Fit has competed in a wide array of professional wrestling rings, in America and abroad, but it's the rings in New Japan that he prefers the most.

That's what Finlay recently told Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp when asked how he would compare New Japan's rings to other rings across the world.

"I think New Japan probably has the best ring. That's my favorite ring to be in. Like it's turned me into a ring snob, honestly. But I also started out wrestling on roadside shows. So I've been in terrible rings and it kind of doesn't make a difference, but it is nice to be in a New Japan ring. I've been in some rings on some shows and it's like, ‘I don't know if it's going to hold up.’ It's always nice when there's an added level of structural danger in a match," Finlay said.

Who doesn't love an added level of structural damage?

Finlay talked about a variety of different subjects during his Fightful interview, including his chemistry with Zack Sabre Jr., becoming the leader of the Bullet Club, and more.
