This past Monday’s Road to the New Beginning 2025 event in Tokyo, Japan featured El Phantasmo defeating Jeff Cobb to retain the NJPW World Television Championship.
Following the match, Cobb gave his thoughts in a post-match press conference about his loss to El Phantasmo and the future of his career in NJPW and the potential idea of leaving for a new company.
“Nothing to say. Nothing to say. Tonight, the better man won. El Phantasmo, you changed since the first time you came to New Japan. You were a little Bullet Club bitch. Now, you’re a grown man. Friends left you, you didn’t cry about it. You just put your nose to the ground and grinded and took my television championship. So where does that leave Jeff Cobb? It seems I can’t win when all the marbles are down. G1, New Japan Cup. Long gone are the days when I went 8-0 in the G1. Now I can’t even break .500. Where does that leave Jeff Cobb? Maybe it’s time to take my bags and go somewhere else. I don’t know. I don’t know.”
Cobb has been working for NJPW since November of 2017.
