Reigning NJPW Strong Openweight Champion Gabe Kidd appeared in a digital exclusive following his Wrestle Dynasty match with top AEW star Kenny Omega to talk about a number of topics, including NJPW President Hiroshi Tanahashi getting emotional and crying at the end of the match.

Kidd said, “He knows. He knows what I’ve been through, what it’s like living in the dojo, what it’s like being lonely in a foreign country. And he knows I’m one of a kind. People can say whatever they want, but there’s no one who embodies this company better than me. No one.”
