Rocky Romero recently appeared as a guest on the Wrestling Perspective podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During his appearance on the popular pro wrestling program, the NJPW star spoke about the working relationship between the promotion and All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and more.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview.
On Jon Moxley being the centerpiece of the two companies coming together: "The idea of the whole thing, it really goes down to KENTA and Moxley, and how Moxley is basically the center-piece of all this. He really is. As much as you want to say Kenny [Omega] is, but I really feel like Mox is because IMPACT even coming to AEW was to work with Moxley. Obviously, alongside Kenny. Then KENTA coming to AEW, showing up on Dynamite, really for one reason and one reason only, and that because Moxley is the IWGP US Heavyweight Champion."
On this collaboration being huge because no one was expecting it: "This thing kind of got put together, you know, we got the okay from Moxley to come to New Japan Strong which is every Friday night… That’s kinda where it all started, not knowing that KENTA was going to be on AEW. That came kind of later and quickly got put together. Everybody seemed to be excited to work together because they knew it was going to be, promotion wise, it’s going to be f***ing mega huge because nobody was expecting it."
