Cain Velasquez recently spoke with Sporting News about a wide range of pro-wrestling and MMA related topics.
During the interview, he was asked about attending a recent New Japan Pro Wrestling show in San Francisco to have discussions with the company about wrestling there in the future.
“New Japan is an organization that I’d love to wrestle for. But I don’t believe that I want to stick with one organization. I want to be wrestling for different organizations. For me, this sport is so new, and I want to learn as much as I can and wrestle as much as I can.”
