Zack Sabre Jr. is currently signed to New Japan Pro Wrestling and has been making big moves with the promotion.
In the past, Sabre Jr. briefly competed under WWE when he took part in the Cruiserweight Classic Tournament.
With Suzuki-gun officially disbanding after NJPW's final show of 2022, Sabre Jr. explained why he chose to sign with the Japanese-based promotion over WWE. The 35-year-old claimed that Minoru Suzuki played a vital role in his decision.
"Six years ago I had the choice between WWE and New Japan. I chose New Japan because Minoru Suzuki invited me into Suzuki-gun. It's more than a team, it's family. Today isn't just the end of Suzuki-gun, today's the end of Dangerous Tekkers."
Suzuki previously confirmed that Suzuki-gun will officially disband starting in 2023. At the NJPW World Tag League Finals, the veteran wrestler made the major announcement.
On the final NJPW show of 2022, Suzuki-gun featured in a huge 8-man tag team match, as the members of the group went head-to-head against each other as part of two separate teams.
