From a Tokyo Sports article, former NJPW wrestler and Judo champion Naoya Ogawa praised fellow judoka Aaron Wolf's debut at Wrestle Kingdom, and also applauded EVIL for guiding the match.
"The match was interesting. It wasn't the strong style of New Japan matches I know, where you go head-to-head", Ogawa said. "EVIL dominated the match. He's a great wrestler. He even did the airplane pose", which is a move that Ogawa did in his first NJPW match ever, a victory against Shinya Hashimoto in April 1997.
But Ogawa felt Wolf need to do better with his gym work. "It's his physique, after all. It's been six months since he was announced as a member of the team, so I wish he'd toned up a bit more. All the young lions in New Japan have amazing six-pack abs. I hope he aims to have something like that".
