Jay White: The Sessions with Renee Paquette
The Bullet Club comes to The Sessions with “Switchblade” Jay White! Before New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Windy City Riot show, Jay chats with Renee about one of the more usual in-ring careers out there, including how a radio contest sent him down the path of pro wrestling. Plus, find out who he trained with, who his dream match is, whether he is, in fact, #AllElite, and the one thing he isn’t willing to discuss on a pod.

I’ve been a wrestling fan for almost 50 years, and Jay is one of the most convincing heels I’ve ever witnessed. As well as being an amazing wrestler, he’s got that rock-star energy. He’s gonna go down as one of the greats.

I predict this dude is gonna break out outside the wrestling industry. He has that look and charisma to where Hollywood would come calling.

So we can only breathe with the Switchblade in his indefinite era, because he happened to win an all expenses covered WM trip, because he happened to hear about a gauntlet for it on the radio? Goddamn... Some things are just 'it was meant to be'. Love this guy! TOO SWEET!
I LOVE that he's always somewhat in character anytime he's doing interviews. Jay White will take over the world, only a matter of time!

I remember seeing him first on a ROH-show where he wrestled I think it was a young Will Ospreay. I've been a fan of both of them ever since and man has it been a fun ride! Jay and Will are the future of NJPW Gajin-peformers, especially Jay White! This man is a generational talent who will transcend the Pro Wrestling Industry, mark my words! Hopefully he has a lengthy title-reign and put on some bangers starting this Sunday at Forbidden Door! BREATHE WITH THE SWITCHBLADE
i love it this is so wholesome when those two are talking about worst nightmare when performing
And NEW IWGP World heavyweight champion! BREATHE with the switchblade!
49:50 he reveals why Tama Tonga got kicked out of Bullet Club. Tama wasn’t going outside of Japan to grow Bullet Club. Whereas Jay White was willing to go outside of Japan with Bullet Club attached to him which makes it grow. Pretty smart and it makes Tama’s career less pressuring. Makes me wonder why Tama wasn’t willing to go outside Japan.

he sounds like the type of guy who would give the WWE a shot, as thats what he grew up on. he doesn't come across as a mark for the business or someone who grew up watching tapes and following the japanese scene. i hope he stays with NJPW, but wouldn't be surprised if he one day decided to give the WWE a go. hopefully he isn't in their cross hairs, as they seem to be fully invested with getting guys and girls and bringing them through NXT.
