(BIG JAPAN) Takuya Nomura interview - June 2018

NOMURA: I do not care for Suzuki.
I think he is strong, and that is amazing, but the connection is a little warped. Because I am also warped, there is the sensation that the two of us do not blend with each other. I guess I am stubborn.
I am also free of restraint, which may be useless unless you are in a position to sink your teeth into something, in my opinion I thought that it would "differ", if I used verbal abuse.

Q: Is not Moon Vulcan a rival team?

NOMURA: When you wrestle with him, he cannot move when he is down, and that is when you use the breakthrough blows. I am thinking of getting the victory by three counts, but I want to make him give up and and in a way that all the fans see it. As for the win, well, in this match I want him to tap out or knock him out.

Q: What is your difference in style?

NOMURA: Six months or so ago, maybe a little bit longer, I was lost, and I do not intend to be like that now, I think people watching could see it and wonder if I was perplexed. To the audience, any sense that I am lost will not be conveyed, I don't want to have matches that mean that I cannot grow, this time it will be a match that will be a branching point for me.     

Q: Your group has not yet won against the seniors?

NOMURA: When you feel weak, you won't reach that point, so you have to think about it. When I get tired, I go to bed (in typical fashion). It is hard to put together a career. I think variously on these things when I am practicing.
(He then talks about UWF, but it doesn't translate well, I think he is saying something like he admires UWF and he wants to be like them, but he does not have clear enough philosophy about it ).
However, it is easy to do it (in such style) in Big Japan, which is why I entered in the first place because I had the belief that "I could do it."
Each idea of wrestling is different, which is what I want to tell you. I don't want to say what I don't think. For example, when you think of standing facing your opponent. I really want to say it then, but when I am in the ring I really want to say the truth about what I think. When you watch wrestling, everyone is different. Its like UWF, I like Maeda, and I have many thoughts about it. When I think about it, it gets bigger and my head hurts, and I will forget to sleep. It was like the first time that Kaito Kiyomiya came back from abroad, and Noah and Big Japan were in Hokkaido and we had constant entertainment (I think he means they were socializing day and night). (At this point he mentions a match that he saw Kiyomiya in and thought was good). He seems like a future ace.

Q: Did you think of anything else?

NOMURA: In the past it was of winning, and how everyone rises to it right? After a while when you do wake up, there is no one around, even if you look. Everyone gets up, they walk on the right path, but I entered and presented my own thing. There are times when I think I have chosen a strange path. I get the feeling in that title match with Suzuki. The point I am trying to make is that I want it to be exciting, but I am sorry, winning is my top priority. You do not know unless you try.
