“Just to be back in a New Japan Pro Wrestling wrestling ring, it felt great. To hear the fans when they saw me jump into the ring was awesome too. Just in general, to be back here in New Japan is awesome."
“Japan has been like a second home to me for a long, long time, and New Japan’s always been one of the biggest and best promotions out there. And it’s just so good to finally be back and to finally do what I love — and to hear the people be so excited and hear the people enjoy that I’m back was awesome. So it just felt good, man. There’s nothing like being in that New Japan Pro Wrestling ring. Nothing like it.”
