Over the past year, Wheeler Yuta has seen quite the run in All Elite Wrestling.
The current ROH Pure Champion was a recent guest on the “DEFYANT ONES” podcast to discuss his time in the company so far, as well as his match with Penta El Zero Miedo on the January 25th, 2022 episode of AEW Dark: Elevation. He said,
“I’m trying to think of some of the earlier matches but kind of more fresh in my mind, I think about AEW stuff. Like I had this match with Penta when I was still with the Best Friends before all of the Blackpool Combat Club stuff and that was really the first time that I’d say I felt comfortable like in AEW. Like, okay, this is what I was doing on the independents, these are the kind of matches that I can have.”
He added, “Then that sort of snowballed, that was I think a month or two before the Blackpool Combat Club stuff started to roll, so that was a really good confidence booster for me. From then on, it just kind of snowballed and I got to have some really good matches with some really good people.”
