With reports swirling that Jeff Cobb could be on his way to WWE, the powerhouse wrestler finally addressed the speculation—but in true Cobb fashion, he did it on his own terms.

Amid rumors that WWE is closing in on signing him, Cobb has kept busy wrestling in Japan for NJPW, where he’s been tearing through the New Japan Cup. But today, he finally responded to the speculation on social media—sort of.

“I know I’ve been radio silent about the current situation, and I can’t say everything about it, but I can say a little bit, so here it goes……..” he wrote, before completely swerving the conversation.

“Yes, it is 100% true, Shota is still a cosplay loser and I’m on my way to NJ Cup finals to put a whooping on LIJ. Watch LIVE on http://NJPWWorld.com.”
