Gabe Kidd sends a heated message to Takami Ohbari.
At the NJPW World Tag League Event on December 6, Bullet Club War Dogs (Gabe Kid and Alex Coughlin) beat TMDK (Shane Haste and Mikey Nicholls) to advance to the semifinals.
In their post-match comments, Kidd sent a message to NJPW President Takami Ohbari and expressed his confidence that the Bullet Club War Dogs would be winning the whole thing, not the talent Ohbari "wanted" to see emerge victorious.
"Listen the fuck up. Are you paying attention now? Have you got it? Hey, Ohbari, all them fucks, all them little fucks that you’ve invested in, you want Shota to win? No. You want Kaito to win? No. Narita, Tsuji, Uemura, fuck them all. We just won A Block. Do you not recognize that? Do you not see that? Do you not fucking understand? We are next up. We’re in the main event spot. Fuck them lot," Kidd said.
Coughlin responded by stating that it did not matter who won B Block, as he vowed that he and Kidd were going all the way to the finals. He also pointed out that the last year has been a remarkable one for Bullet Club War Dogs.
"So, we know who won today. So I guess that just means we gotta watch tomorrow to see whose ass we’re gonna kick the next day, and then go all the way to the finals. It doesn’t fucking matter. Like he said, War Dog Tag League, 2023. Last year compared to this year, what a difference. Am I right? What a fucking difference," Coughlin said.
Kidd then looked forward to Wrestle Kingdom 18 and pointed out that his stablemates had prominent spots up and down the card. He predicted that David Finlay would win the gold, regardless of what NJPW wanted to call it.
"Too right. Tokyo Dome, IWGP Tag Team Champions. Clark Connors, Drilla Moloney, IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions, and David Finlay, whatever fucking belt that is. He’s the got it. US, UK, we don’t give a fuck," Kidd said.
Kidd also sent a message to Ohbari on Twitter/X, as he asked him whether he had woken up yet. Kidd claimed that the Bullet Club War Dogs were the "future of your precious company). (Translation via DeepL)
