Nexus Reunion Update, Who Got Darren Young In NJPW (Patreon)

Fred Rosser, formerly Darren Young, told us that Rocky Romero led to him getting in to New Japan Pro Wrestling. I spoke to him a year ago, and he hadn't yet wrestled in 2019. Shortly after, Lance Archer invited him to a New Japan show, and Rosser wanted to see how everything looked and felt to decide if he wanted to try to give it a go. After seeing the show, he thought that he could, but admitted that the style had intimidated him in the past.

He was contacted early in the year by WWE for the Nexus reunion, before the pandemic stopped it. He said WWE took care of him in booking him for the Bump, and would sign with WWE if they offered him another deal and doesn't have anything negative to say about them, but he's not going to wait around. His goal right now is to sign a full-time deal with NJPW and wants to wrestle Yuji Nagata.
