Juice Robinson On His Growth From NXT To New Japan
Juice Robinson recently spoke with Justin Barrasso for Sports Illustrated Extra Mustard’s Week In Wrestling; you can read a few highlights below:
“If you rewind my career back to NXT when I was CJ Parker, I came out there with a bunch of colors in my hair and a bunch of colors in my gear, I danced, I was flamboyant, over-the-top, and they ate me alive and booed the s— out of me,” said Robinson. “I hadn’t proven myself to them. I didn’t show them I was a good worker. Now fast-forward to 2018. I have the confidence, I’ve proved to Japan that I love this and I’m going to wrestle my ass off for as long as I can here. I’m being myself and I’m not playing a character, and I think people can relate to that.
Now American fans are starting to see my work again. All of a sudden, they’re saying, ‘Juice Robinson? He doesn’t suck anymore.’ I love wrestling so much there was no way I wouldn’t be good at it. Otherwise, I’d die trying.”
