Kota Ibushi isn't a fan of Konosuke Takeshita.
Many fans around the world of wrestling are still reeling from the Double Or Nothing pay-per-view, which took place on Sunday, May 28. At the event, Konosuke Takeshita turned on The Elite and helped the Blackpool Combat Club defeat the group in an Anarchy In The Arena match.
Kota Ibushi, longtime friend and partner of Kenny Omega and The Elite, recently spoke to Dark Puroresu Flowsion about Takeshita's turn at the show. Ibushi didn't hold back on Takeshita, noting that he's a made imitation of him.
“I never thought he was that great. He is a made imitation of me. Also, he never respected me”

Ibushi and Takeshita have faced off against one another on a number of occasions in the past, mainly in tag team matches.
Following the conclusion of the Anarchy In The Arena match, Kenny Omega teased to the live crowd that he had at least one or two friends that can even The Elite's odds against the Blackpool Combat Club. Fans can learn more about Omega's post-show promo by clicking here.
