“Here we are after 2months of rehab, reflecting, and regrouping. Back once again. This time its unfamiliar territory. No more being spoon-fed by the WWE. Now itâs time to experience wrestling a little differently.
First stop, Japan!! This is my 1st time here and working for an outside the WWE promotion. Iâm here to work for the legendary Antonio Inoki in his new IGF promotion. Very excited, a little nervous, but thatâs normal.
The flight was about 11hrs from LAX to Tokyo. Couldnât sleep much so I watched a documentary on Alcatraz and Death Valley California. With still 4 hours left over, I played the original Super Mario Brothers for the 1st time since it came out probably!! It was fun, but King Koopa have some unfinished business on the way back home lol!
Moving onâ¦when I arrived in Japan, I was greeted by Simon Inoki who I had met for the 1st time 3 days prior at the Japanese consulate in Los Angeles. Booker T was also there that day. We all talked and bs’d about the businessâ¦.Fun times!
Unfortunately, Booker didnât make it to Japan this time, but hopefully next time. Heâs awesome, & a class act! Not to mention, a familiar face down here would have been nice…..”
