Shane Haste Confirms New Deal With NJPW, Talks Difference Between NJPW And WWE

NJPW star Shane Haste spoke with WrestleMobs on a number of topics including how he has signed a new deal with the company.

Haste said, “Yeah, with other options out there and whatnot, I don’t know. I love Japan. New Japan treats me so well. Seeing how other friends were getting treated at other companies, it just didn’t make things seem very appealing to me, compared to just how well New Japan look after me, how accommodating they are, and just the trajectory that TMDK is going at the moment there, it’s like why would I want to leave?”

On the biggest difference between NJPW and WWE:

“It’s just so chill… we do our wrestling thing, and then we can just hang out. Everyone’s normal. No one’s trying to steal anyone’s job. The freedom and the fun of it all… It’s just easier when you have your mates to bounce off of.”
