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 Owen 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.
