NJPW star El Phantasmo, who made his return to the company at Sundayโs Road to Tokyo Dome show after being out of action for two months due to a tumor, spoke with the company on a number of topics including his highly-anticipated return.
El Phantasmo said, โYou know, it has been a long time since Iโve been in Korakuen Hall. As a matter of fact, the last time I was here was in the G1 against Takeshita, and itโs even hard to wrap my brain around how different life was back then. But right now, I am back. I am back in New Japan Pro-Wrestling. Tomorrow, Korakuen Hall. I am back in the Tokyo Dome. I am back. There is no chance in hell I was gonna miss the Tokyo Dome.โ
On never doubting he would be back:
โAs I sat at home in Canada, I didnโt for a second think that I was ever not gonna be back in New Japan. My fighting spirit is stronger than ever.โ
