In a recent one-on-one with Adrian Hernandez, Gabe Kidd, who currently holds the NJPW STRONG Openweight Champion title, shared about his latest stints in AEW.
Kidd confessed, “I went there, I got paid, and I slapped up a bunch of AEW wrestlers. I mean, what more could I want from that? It was very easy for me. There’s some good talent there, some good talent there, and a bunch of f*ing nerds, but listen, I’m Gabe Kidd. I’m war ready, I’m the madman. So it was light work. Come in, slap ‘em about, get paid, and dip, just like I did in NOAH.”
In the AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door 2024 preliminary show, Kidd formed a tag team with Roderick Strong. They faced off in a four-way tag team showdown against The Kings of the Black Throne, Tomohiro Ishii and Kyle O’Reilly, and Private Party. However, The Kings of the Black Throne emerged victorious from the showdown.
