Shingo Takagi Upset About Forbidden Door II, Satoshi Kojima Hurt By CM Punk’s GTS
Los Ingobernables de Japon (Shingo Takagi, Bushi, and Hiromu Takahashi) defeated United Empire (Jeff Cobb, Kyle Fletcher, and TJP) this past Sunday at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door II.
Following the match, Takagi expressed his disappointment in only being booked on the Zero Hour pre-show this year. He said,
“I was able to participate last year, but this year is the pre-show. As a wrestler, I’m honestly disappointed. I’m a man. I’m always waiting for an offer.”
鷹木「去年に引き続き出場できたが、今年はプレショーだ。そこはレスラーとして正直悔しいよ。AEWさんよ、こんなハツラツな40代、世界どこ探してもいねえからな、40代、世界一元気ハツラツな男だ。いつでもオファー待ってるぜ」

Satoshi Kojima lost to CM Punk in the opening round of the Own Hart Cup at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door II.
Kojima later noted that his jaw hurt so much from Punk’s GTS that it was even difficult for him to eat a gift of assorted bread after the match. He tweeted,
“I was very happy to receive the bread as a gift. However, when I received the GTS, my jaw hurt and I could barely eat.”
Kojima further wrote,
“I have a dream. I want to transform into an action figure in America. If it becomes popular overseas, it is not impossible. Please lend me your strength. I want a figure of bread as well. @RingsideC”
It appears that both Ringside Collectibles and Jazwares’ have acknowledged Kojima’s message on Twitter.
