British wrestling legend Kendo Nagasaki has given Reform UK a resounding "NO."❌ The 84-year-old appears to have cut ties with LDN Wrestling after the promotion's owner and one of its top wrestlers posed for photographs with Reform UK MP Andrew Rosindell. Nagasaki, who became the oldest male wrestler in history when he appeared for LDN last November, made his position clear on his YouTube channel and did not mince his words. His objection goes beyond a difference of opinion. As an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community, Nagasaki argues that introducing what he describes as "ultra-right-wing" politics into wrestling is both inappropriate and harmful - and he is equally clear about who benefits from these arrangements. "When Hulk Hogan got up on the stage with Donald Trump, who got the benefit? Was it Trump or Hogan? It was Trump. And in this case, the person who gets the benefit of being wrapped around that belt with our Jordan is this MP. They [LDN] don't get any benefit from it at all. They [politicians] don't want to be brought into the wrestling business. But they brought the wrestling business into that. He's the one that gets all the benefit." His assistant Roz went further, detailing Rosindell's voting record before labelling Reform the "Degradation Party." Nagasaki was clearly inspired by Joan Crawford when he ended the video, sending out a message to LDN: "Don't fuck with me, gentlemen. It's not my first day at the rodeo."

Jim Cornette needs to be the first inductee announced for the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2027. His brilliance and impact on professional wrestling is one of one. Let’s get him immortalized in wrestling history forever while he’s still with us and able to deliver a speech with his wit and countless hours of stories.
