"What came first was Maeda, the U.W.F., he was saying if they couldn’t keep banded together, then the U.W.F. would break up. And then (Yoji) Anjo, Anjo and (Shigeo) Miyato, those two said that they wouldn’t go along with Maeda’s thinking. Maeda said that even if one person left, the U.W.F. wouldn’t be able to continue as it was, and so he announced to dissolve it. With Maeda saying he was going to break the U.W.F. up, then Takada said that if Maeda said that, if Maeda was talking about a breakup, then the U.W.F. is impossible. Then, with all the young fighters worried about what they were going to do, I got a call from Fujiwara. He said he was going to be building a new organization and asked for my help. So, Suzuki and I went to meet him, and we decided to go to him with some of the other athletes. And so we invited some of the other guys, but they all wanted the U.W.F. name, so they said they couldn’t go to Fujiwara’s new organization. So, from the start, it was just the three of us, myself, Suzuki and (Takaku) Fuke, us three alone went to join Fujiwara. And the rest of the guys all went to UWF-International. They built that with Takada. So, we were asked, Suzuki and I, by Fujiwara to help him, and that’s why we went to Fujiwara-Gumi. When we were invited by him, Maeda and Takada, RINGS and UWF International had not been decided at that point, so at that point in time, going with Fujiwara’s organization was the quickest way to go. We wanted to have matches as soon as possible, so Fujiwara’s new organization was the place to go."
"Ladies and gentlemen, the road to success is made of blood, sweat, and tears. The first steps have been made and a lot of hard work lays ahead of us, but with the spirit that Fujiwara Gumi has, we can face the future with confidence. I hope that we can give wrestling back the honor that it deserves, so that it can be done in the same respect as boxing, which it once has. It's time to give the public what they paid for and not take their money in false pretenses of impersonating professional wrestling. Thank you."
"This is where we start doing more of the shoots. It’s not a full shoot, it’s a shoot where you carry guys a certain distance and then you beat them, but it’s not a give me finish. "
