Jack Perry: Everyone Is Afraid To Let Me Come Back Or Even Let Me Go
Jack Perry speaks following NJPW 52nd Anniversary event.
Jack Perry returned to the ring at NJPW 52nd Anniversary, defeating Shota Umino in the first round of the New Japan Cup. It was Perry’s first match since AEW All In, where he lost to HOOK and was subsequently suspended for his role in a backstage altercation with CM Punk.
In backstage comments, Perry addressed his return.
“I feel amazing. You want to know why? I haven’t had a wrestling match in six months. Just for a point of reference, through the absolute worst time in my entire life, I took one month, for me. Now, why six months? It ain’t because of me. It’s because other people are afraid. Nobody wants to have the difficult conversations. Everyone is afraid to let me come back, or even let me go, even when I fucking asked for it. I get it. Nobody wants to look in the mirror, so they need somebody to pin up on a cross so they can go about their daily lives and act like nothing ever happened. That’s over now. There are a very select handful of people in the world who still have my back. Tonight, I think I found a few more,” he said.
Perry joined House of Torture at NJPW 52nd Anniversary.
Perry showed up at NJPW Battle in the Valley, attacking Shota and ripping up his AEW contract.
