NJPW‘s Rocky Romero talked with The Orlando Sentinel about the different mentalities in New Japan and WWE. Here are the highlights:
On NJPW not being about “selfishness”:
“We’re not about selfishness. It’s different with WWE. They’re telling wrestlers to reach for the brass ring and compete with each other for top spots. The Japanese mentality is to work together to make the ship run better. It’s been instilled in me for a long time and now I’m passing it on to Sho and Yoh [of Roppongi 3K] to guide them, let them learn from mistakes and make them the best.”

On willing to help younger talent:
“I wasn’t looking for it, but I guess I’m a leader now. New Japan has the system of senpai and kohai – rookie and veteran, something like that – and I’m always willing to help younger talent.”
