New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Lio Rush was recently in conversation with “MuscleManMalcolm” and was asked about who he’d want to face at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2. The former WWE Cruiserweight Champion expressed his desire to compete against Dante Martin at the event. He said,
“That’s a heavy question because there’s so many guys that are currently on the roster that I wanted to wrestle, but never have and was so close to wrestling. Yeah, that’s incredibly hard. I feel like me being a part of that event in itself would be pretty cool, so, who knows. Anybody, anybody really. There’s a ton of guys on that roster that I’d love to wrestle. In a perfect world, it would have been cool to wrestle Dante [Martin] but I know he just had that injury. Praying for him, huge prayers and respect to Dante, I saw that injury and it’s pretty nasty.”
