Gabe Kidd shares his thoughts on CM Punk.
Gabe Kidd has risen through the ranks in NJPW, and he has had a breakout run in recent months. He beat Eddie Kingston to win the NJPW Strong Openweight Championship at NJPW Resurgence. During his rise, he has often taken shots at stars in both AEW and WWE.
Speaking on Unlikely with Adrian Hernandez, Gabe Kidd shared his thoughts on American wrestling.
“I don’t give a shit. I couldn’t give less of a shit, to be honest. I wrestle in Japan. My business is in Japan. Why would I waste time thinking about what they’re doing? I call their guys out for fun. I get drunk, hop on Twitter, I call their guys out for fun. They’re at the back of my mind. I don’t give a fuck about them. What I will say is that if they ever come to Japan, I will demolish and embarrass every single one of them. I don’t care who it is. I don’t care, tag team, singles, anything. MJF, Danny Garcia, Ospreay, any of those little rats. FTR, you want to hop on a tag, let’s do it. I’m here, active, and so is Jake Lee. So are all the [Bullet Club War] Dogs. We’re running pro wrestling right now. So stay in your own lane. Stick to doing your little in-ring promos on TV. Twats," Kidd said.
Later in the interview, Kidd played a name game where he was asked to briefly comment on various wrestlers. In one highlight, Hernandez brought up CM Punk.
"Fuck CM Punk [laughs]," Kidd said.
Kidd previously said that he would beat up The Rock. Check out his comments here.
Kidd will defend his NJPW Strong Openweight Championship against Lio Rush at NJPW Capital Collision. Fightful will have coverage of the show as it airs on August 30th.
