Zack Sabre Jr. takes some shots at Ren Narita and House of Torture.
At NJPW New Japan Cup Night Five, Zack Sabre Jr. and Mikey Nicholls & Zack Sabre Jr defeated Shoma Kato and Boltin Oleg. In doing so, he gained momentum ahead of his tournament match with Ren Narita, who defeated Taichi to advance to the next round.
In his post-match comments, Zack Sabre Jr. shared his thoughts on the New Japan Cup and his looming clash with Ren Narita.
“It’s not even started for me yet. There were two things that I was really looking forward to. Sadistically, a TMDK battle between Mikey Nicholls would have been very interesting in the New Japan Cup. I faced Shane Haste in the G1. That can’t happen. The other match that I was most excited about was finally facing my Dangerous Tekkers tag team partner, still one of my closest friends in Japan, Taichi. I think that would have been an incredible bout. Instead, we’ve got the Caravan of Twats, the Gazebo of Cunts. The House of, it’s not torture, is it? [Nicholls asks who’s they’re torturing] I mean, it’s undeniable, it’s the audience. Ren-Ren, do you want revenge from the Tokyo Dome a year ago, when I became the first New Japan World Television Champion, joined TMDK, and had a magnificent bloody year? This year’s getting better because I’m gonna win the New Japan Cup for the third time and finally get the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. First step, Ren, is taking you and your gaggle of buffoons down," Sabre Jr. said.
