Top star Gabe Kidd has no interest in signing with AEW. He doesn't like Tony Khan's company because he believes the All Elite Wrestling head has a roster full of incompetent wrestlers.
The 27-year-old star is signed to New Japan Pro Wrestling. He is the reigning Strong Openweight Champion and is in his first reign with the belt. Kidd has been with the promotion since 2020.
In a recent interview released by NJPW on their YouTube channel, Bullet Club War Dogs member Gabe Kidd went on an explosive non-PG rant against the Jacksonville-based promotion. He highlighted that the stars in Tony Khan's locker room are weak and moody, which makes them unworthy of being called wrestlers.
"This business is full of pu**ies, little b*m s*ckers. All the people in his company queuing outside Tony Khan's office, 'Oh I can't do that. Oh, I can't do this.' You're a bunch of f**king egotistical nerds is what you are, You've never got any pu**y. It's embarrassing. The whole thing is embarrassing. I don't want anything to do with AEW."

He added that he would never sign with All Elite Wrestling because it would lead his career to dwindle.
"This is my plan if New Japan wants to take it to the next level and regain the top spot as the top wrestling company, [they need to tell] f**k off AEW because they're just embarrassing nerds that aren't helping us. They take, take, take, don't give anything back. So, f**k them. I don't give a sh*t if AEW wants to sign me. What? So I can go and turn up to TV be Tony's new toy, go on Dynamite have a couple of matches, and then sit and eat catering for 23 weeks doing f**k all." [From 5:05 to 6:01]

The brewing rivalry between NJPW's Gabe Kidd and AEW's Kenny Omega
Earlier this year, Kenny Omega addressed his return and stated that he wished to make his comeback at WrestleDynasty at the Tokyo Dome in Japan against some young talent at NJPW.
Following their announcement, he got involved in a backstage fight with Gabe Kidd. The two stars are now set to face each other on January 5 at the cross-promotional PPV. In the past few weeks, former Kid Danger has been very vocal about his aversion to Omega on social media.
