Interviews: Kenny Omega, Dick Togo

November 3, 2011

There are two pretty good interviews that appeared online today. Kenny Omega is this week’s guest on the Art Of Wrestling podcast, hosted by the one and only Colt Cabana. The episode can be heard over at We Love Colt website and will also be available on iTunes tonight.

The other interview features Dick Togo and it was filmed during his recent trip to England. Togo talks about his retirement show in Japan, his time wrestling in Australia and Europe afterwards, his match with Fit Finlay and more. Unfortunately there is some heavy background noise at parts of the interview but hopefully it will not distract you too much. The interview is split into 4 videos and was done in Japanese but there is the option of English subtitles if you click on the CC section of each video. Credit goes to YujinWrestling for the interview. Enjoy.
