NJPW Strong Openweight Champion Gabe Kidd spoke with the company about several topics, including his desire to face Kenny Omega in a rematch when the time is right.
Kidd said, “I’ll give him credit, he isn’t the phony I thought he was or that I said he was before, he is the best of the best and that’s who I deserve to be in the ring with, he got me, but I do want round two. When the time is right, I do, and you know it’ll be harder a second time. Tokyo Dome was his first match back, his first step back into the wrestling ring, a second time and he’ll be more confident, he’ll have been wrestling consistently. There’s no doubt, I could feel and you can see watching the match back that he was nervous in there, it’s a credit to him as a wrestler that he was able to beat me, because I was 100%, it’s given me things to work on and that’s what I’m doing with my coaches, so next time we face off I’ll be 100% better than the 100% I was then.”
