Taiji Ishimori Looking For More Than Revenge
In a recent interview with NJPW, Bullet Club’s Taiji Ishimori was asked if he wanted revenge for losing to KUSHIDA in 2016’s Super-J Cup.
Ishimori: I kind of want revenge, but more than that, I want to show that Bullet Club’s Taiji Ishimori is a different beast. When it comes to power and speed, I blow KUSHIDA and Hiromu away.
