As PWMania.com previously reported, NJPW Strong Openweight Champion and new ROH World Champion Eddie Kingston recently took to his social media accounts and revealed that due to a back injury and holding two major titles, he will no longer wrestle on the indies.
Top NJPW Star Rocky Romero took to his Twitter (X) account and gave high praises to Kingston, while also revealing that Kingston has been fighting through injuries since last year and that he is a champion.
He stated, “Eddie is a champion. Dude has been fighting through injuries since last year. Knowing Eddie I’m sure it wasn’t an easy decision for him. Let’s support him and give him some space and time heal between his contracted dates. Thanks to Defy for being understanding and working on a new opponent for me. I can’t wait to show out for the Defyance tonight! Let’s fuckin party!”
