Gabe Kidd Bashes AEW & WWE On Daytime News

Gabe Kidd takes aim at AEW & WWE fans live on the news

Gabe Kidd has developed a habit for running his mouth and saying anything that comes to his mind without any form of filter, which has led to him becoming one of the most entertaining and captivating performers in the entire professional wrestling world today. Kidd was chosen to represent New Japan Pro Wrestling in an appearance on KCAL News to promote the upcoming NJPW Resurgence 2024 show which takes place later tonight in Ontario, California at the Toyota Arena. 

When asked about why fans should tune in to NJPW, Kidd took the chance to take some big shots towards the other major promotions. 

"I'll put it in very simple terms. If you like theater, go watch WWE. If you're a fat nerd who can't talk to girls, go watch AEW. If you want to watch the real stuff, New Japan Pro-Wrestling is where it's at."

Kidd is set to do battle with AEW’s Eddie Kingston at the show, battling for the NJPW Strong Openweight Championship in a No Ropes Last Man Standing match.
