In recent months, NJPW Strong Openweight Champion Gabe Kidd has been feuding with former AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, and they will face each other at NJPW x AEW Wrestle Dynasty. Kidd has previously criticized the working relationship between NJPW and AEW.
In an interview that NJPW posted on their YouTube channel, Gabe Kidd noted that he didn’t care if AEW wanted to sign him. He dismissed the idea of competing for the company and sitting in catering. Kidd also noted that he had no problem with telling Tony Khan what’s what.
“I don’t give a shit if AEW want to sign me. What, so I can go and turn up to TV, be Tony’s new toy? Go on Dynamite, have a couple of matches and then sit and catering for 23 weeks doing fuck all, flying to Toledo, Ohio, to do what? A show in front of a crowd that have seen five hours of wrestling already? I have no interest in that whatsoever. Wrestling to me, I’m a professional, but wrestling means more to me than these guys, and I think it’s about time that someone with New Japan stepped up and has some fucking balls. We are getting our pants pulled down and dogged by the rest of the wrestling world because of being professional. So maybe it is time to be a little bit unprofessional. Maybe it is time to talk a bit of shit, and if they have anything to say about it, can come and chat to me. I have no problem pulling Tony Khan into our office and telling him what’s what. I have no problem reading him his rights and telling him what a fucking idiot he is. So that’s that,” Kidd said.
