Top NJPW Star Rocky Romero spoke with Fightful on a number of topics such as IMPACT EVP Scott D’Amore being a man of his word and being super influential and the reason why New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) is once again back on AXS TV following their departure from the network in early 2020.

Rocky Romero said:

“Scott D’Amore has been nothing but a man of his word when it comes to dealing with New Japan and also being super influential and being the reason why New Japan is back on AXS. That’s all Scott’s work. He’s been great. Obviously, both companies can help each other. They are of similar size, and our demographics might be a little bit different, but I think there is enough space to help each other.”

Rocky Romero also spoke about how NJPW and IMPACT Wrestling brings different types of fans to AXS TV, but both promotions can work together and bring a lot of excitement to the fans.

Rocky Romero said:

“New Japan bring a certain type of fan, IMPACT brings a certain type of fan to AXS, and 2023 should really be, especially with fans being able to cheer in Japan, the show is going to get exciting for fans. AXS is going to be a really important part of that and working with IMPACT.”
