- At Death Before Dishonor XV, Minoru Suzuki will face Cody Rhodes for the ROH World Championship and it will be his first match in the U.S. in 25 years. Suzuki recently spoke with NJPW about the G1 tournament, how there are too many champions, and fans giving praise to wrestlers who lose a match.
"Look, New Japan, and New Japan fans, you're full of BS admiration and fake praise," Suzuki said. "You see a guy who just lost in the ring, getting a round of applause. 'Oh wow, great match, clap, clap, clap.' Patting losers on the back, acting emotional. What a load of crap! It's the winners that make headlines. It's the winners you end up talking about. Don't be hypocritical. Don't pretend I'm wrong. I'm right! Everybody's special? Everybody's great? Don't make me laugh. In a dog eat dog world, what marks you out as special? It's simple. Winning. That's it."
