NJPW’s Gabe Kidd Calls WWE Theater, Says AEW Is For People Who Can’t Talk To Girls

One Big Thing

Gabe Kidd, known for his foul mouth, took shots at WWE and AEW while promoting NJPW STRONG Resurgence. In an interview with CBS Los Angeles, Kidd called WWE “theater” and said AEW is for “fat nerds who can’t talk to girls.”

Key Points

• Kidd believes NJPW is “the real stuff” compared to other wrestling companies.
• He will face Eddie Kingston for the NJPW STRONG Openweight Championship in a No Ropes Last Man Standing Match at NJPW STRONG Resurgence.
• After a brief break, Kidd is expected to return to Japan for the Dominion 6.9 event on June 9.

Why It Matters

Kidd’s comments highlight the competitive nature of the wrestling industry and the different styles and audiences each company caters to. His upcoming match against Eddie Kingston at NJPW STRONG Resurgence showcases the intense rivalries within NJPW.

Forbidden Door Pay-Per-View

Following Dominion 6.9, NJPW will collaborate with AEW for the annual Forbidden Door pay-per-view in Long Island, New York. This event will bring together talent from both companies, despite Kidd’s disparaging remarks about AEW’s fanbase.
