Pro wrestling veteran and former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Jay White, who recently lost a Loser Leaves Japan Match to Hikuleo signifying that his time in NJPW is over, spoke with Sports Illustrated on a number of topics such as how anything is possible now that his time in NJPW has ended as well as how he could possibly show up in promotions like IMPACT Wrestling, AEW or even the WWE.
Jay White said:
“So much is possible. Impact, AEW, WWE—we’ll see. I’m at peace with it. I don’t know if there is much more I could have done. I don’t feel like I left a bunch of boxes unchecked. I’ve been living it, so it can be hard to appreciate it in the moment, but as I move on, I’ve started to look back at the weight some of it holds. As time goes on, I hope people appreciate it even more. To me, I was doing what I was meant to be doing.”
Jay White also spoke about how he always believed in Hikuleo and how the two of them are tied to each other forever since his moment came against him.
Jay White said:
“Now I’m looking at what’s next. I can’t go back to Japan, but there is nothing that says I can’t compete at the shows in the United States. Hikuleo was everything I always knew he was. I’ve always believed in him. I’m proud of him, and his moment came against me, so now we’re tied to each other forever.”
