I can't find the video where Kenny speaks Japanese in his promo for the first time, he shocked the crowd after making them believe he only spoke English. Can someone post it?

Are you referring to the 2016 G1? Because that one always gets brought up but it actually wasn’t the first time. First time was after he beat Tanahashi at New Beginning 2016

I think it was with Bullet Club, with Bad Luck Fale holding a flag. Sorry I don't know the exact event

>To be precise, Kenny was fluent in Japanese for a long time and the crowd knew it. He used to cut promos in the language in DDT and during his initial stints as a face in the Junior division in NJPW (around 2010). In Gedo’s view, Gaijins should always speak in English to piss off the locals because natives don’t naturally speak foreign languages. Regarding this exact promo, actually, the crowd was pleased and surprised to welcome back Japanese speaking Kenny because they have been waiting for this moment "forever" (as soon as he joined the company in 2015) and he was a full-blown heel.

My bad, anon. You have my apologies.
You have to put it in old Reddit for the video to show up. I swear I wasn't trying to be a dick.
Props to you for doing good thing.

He became IWGP heavyweight champion, had the greatest match of all time and then created the company that took down WWE.

Outside his proper heel run AEW Kenny has been very mopey and stare out of a window type personality. I guess he was a bit MIA in the last year of New Japan too but i don't like current Kenny. He's a shit addition to the tv shows because everything has to b le deep and low energy.
