Ross welcomes Jeff Cobb to the show.
Ross asks Cobb what or who influenced him to get involved in the wrestling business. Cobb informs that when he was a young kid he was a big fan of Hulk Hogan. He said his prayers and bought the Hogan multivitamins, and Hogan’s larger than life character really appealed to him at that time.
Cobb informs that working for NJPW has been above and beyond anything he could have imagined. Before he started working there he heard great things about the company and the country, but the fans, company, and employees are all great, and he can’t express just how happy he is working for NJPW right now.

Ross asks Cobb what makes the NJPW locker room so great. Cobb informs that everyone’s on the same page, and everything is done for the greater good of the company as a whole. Of everyone on the NJPW roster, he’d love to work with Kenny Omega, Okada and/or Naito in the future.
Cobb notes that he’s really enjoyed his time working for ROH as well. He points out that the locker room is great and Joe Koff has been very good to him. Ross notes that ROH seems to bridge the gap between old school and new school and Cobb agrees entirely, adding that any type of wrestling fan should be able to enjoy ROH’s product.
