“I think with the last time we spoke, I probably said something along the lines of, I just want to go out there and show what I can do, and I feel like over these past few months, I've had the capability to do that. I think that we're gonna be looking at even more opportunity coming this Saturday when I wrestle Yota. I mean, I couldn't ask for a better opportunity, right? The IWGP heavyweight champion. I'm looking at this match like kind of like a job interview, right? And, what a way to, what a way to try to start it out.”
