Eddie Kingston isn't done yet.
Kingston has been sidelined since May 2024, as he underwent leg surgery after he suffered an injury at NJPW Resurgence. He is currently on the road to recovery.
Cezar Bononi shared a new video in which he trained with Eddie Kingston. In one highlight, Bononi said that he wanted to see Kingston return to the ring.
“I will. I never doubted that I’ll come back. No, I got more shit to do. Being the top guy in the business is still a goal. Everybody wants to do the Tokyo Dome, which I get, I want to do that too. Somehow I want to do Budokan. If I do Budokan, I’m retiring. My favorite match ever was in the Budokan. I got more shit I gotta do before I call it. You know me, once I’m done, [I’ll be in the] middle of nowhere. I don’t want to be nowhere near the business. I just got more shit I gotta do. I never doubted coming back. It’s just the work I know I have to put in, and it’s like ugh, fuck, you know what I mean? [Laughs] When the surgery first happened, I was like, yeah, I could take breaks. But now the goal I want to hit, it’s like I can’t. I don’t have time," Kingston said.
Kingston previously said that he plans to get away from wrestling once he retires. Check out his comments here.
