NJPW star Zack Sabre Jr. recently spoke with the company on a number of topics including the fans calling him old.
Sabre Jr. said, “I’m not the Japanese young punk, but I’m a British young punk. I might have been in this game 20 years, I’m just getting started. This is gonna be my first G1. Let me give you a little fact. You know the human body, every seven to ten years, repairs every cell? I think it’s 15 years, skeletal bones are repaired. But I’m vegan, so my immune system is through the roof. So my cells repair between two and five years, so then that’s like a third less than the average person.”
“So if you put me at 36, I’m at least a third younger than the rest of the population. So I’m actually sort of in my 20s. But then also, I’m the best Japanese technical wrestler in the world, plus vegan, I mean, that keeps me youthful. Look at my skin. So I think I’m sort of back around my debut age. So I’m actually 16, so I’m actually younger than everyone else in this tournament. So if one more of you bastards calls me old, I’m gonna rip your f***ing arms off.”
