Fans can expect big things from Nic Nemeth in this post-WWE chapter of his career, according to two-time WWE Hall of Famer Booker T.
Nemeth was among those released from WWE in September of last year as part of the first wave of cuts following the launch of TKO Group Holdings.
On a recent edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker T spoke about Nemeth’s debut for New Japan Pro Wrestling at Wrestle Kingdom 18. He said,
“Like a cat, man. Always gonna land on his feet. He’s good at what he does…He’d been waiting on this about ten years.
“Every wrestler wants to have that Japan moment. [Nic]’s got a wrestling background so I don’t think he’s shy to combat.”
Nemeth will compete against David Finlay at NJPW ‘The New Beginning’ in Sapporo on February 23. The pair brawled during Wrestle Kingdom 18.
Nemeth debuted for TNA Wrestling at Hard to Kill 2024. The ‘Wanted Man’ confronted new TNA World Champion Moose in the closing moments of the show.
