Gabe Kidd Has A Chip On His Shoulder
Show notes
Gabe Kidd traces his wild road from Nottingham and the British wrestling scene to the New Japan Dojo, NJPW, the Death Riders and AEW! He explains why he stayed in Japan when the world shut down, what it was really like living and training in the New Japan Dojo, doing up to 1,000 squats a day, and how frustration with his place in NJPW fueled the attitude that changed his career. Gabe breaks down forcing his way into the G1, making his match with Kenny Omega happen, what that Tokyo Dome showdown meant to him, and why he ultimately decided it was time to leave New Japan and sign with AEW. He also opens up about suffering a psychotic break, being hospitalized, and the role wrestling played during one of the lowest periods of his life. Plus, Gabe shares how Jon Moxley brought him into the Death Riders, why he calls the group “family,” what Mox has taught him, and why Gabe Kidd believes the EW World Championship is in his future. And he shares his memories of his friend Benjamin Satterley (aka PAC).
