Former NJPW Star and pro wrestling veteran Kota Ibushi spoke to Dark Puroresu Flowsion on a number of topics such as how money is something that isn’t really important and how it is unnecessary, but what is far more necessary and important to him is to be in a place that fully understands him and he will have a future in.

Kota Ibushi said:

“About money, I think it’s very much unnecessary, but for me the things I care about and what’s necessary [for me] are more important. So I don’t want to be in a match without meaning. There aren’t a lot of matches without meaning, but I think I’ll show up in places in the future that truly and fully understand me.”

Kota Ibushi also spoke about the possibility of joining All Elite Wrestling.

Kota Ibushi said:

“A lot of my best friends are in AEW. My younger peers in Japan are also growing up [there?]. Nonetheless, I don’t think of going to AEW immediately. I want to have a ‘school’ in Japan. Once that’s been worked out, I think I’lI talk with AEW.”
