Gabe Kidd
Gabriel Michael McMenamin (born 24 April 1997) is an English professional wrestler. He is signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where he performs under the ring name Gabe Kidd. He is a member of the Bullet Club and its War Dogs sub-group, and is a former one-time IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion. He is also a former Strong Openweight Champion and Strong Openweight Tag Team Champion. He also makes appearances for partner promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Ring of Honor (ROH).
McMenamin made his debut in 2011 under the name Kid Danger and at that time, he wrestled under a mask to conceal his age.
In 2013, McMenamin switched to the name of Gabriel Kidd.
On 29 April 2017, Kidd won the WCPW Internet Championship, one of the titles of WhatCulture Pro Wrestling, in a triple threat match involving defending champion Cody Rhodes and Joe Hendry. He lost the title to Zack Sabre Jr. on 21 September. On 2 June 2019, Kidd lost to Hendry in a "Loser Leaves Town" match, after which he left Defiant Wrestling.
On 29 June, at a Revolution Pro Wrestling event, Kidd teamed with Kenneth Halfpenny and Shaun Jackson where they defeated Brendan White, NJPW young lions Clark Connors and Karl Fredericks. Katsuyori Shibata, was so impressed with Kidd and he went on to recommend him to NJPW officials, leading Kidd to be signed by NJPW.
On 25 January 2020, Kidd made his debut at New Japan Pro-Wrestling. Later the same year, he entered the New Japan Cup and lost to Taiji Ishimori in the first round on 17 June.
On 20 November 2022, at Historic X-Over, Kidd teamed with LA Dojo stablemates, Clark Connors, Kevin Knight and Alex Coughlin to defeat Kosei Fujita, Oskar Leube, Ryohei Oiwa and Yuto Nakashima. A few days later, Coghlin and Kidd teamed together in the World Tag League, where they finished bottom of their block with just 2 points.
On 4 June 2023, at Dominion, Coughlin and Kidd, branded as Bullet Club War Dogs attacked Bishamon (Hirooki Goto and Yoshi-Hashi), following their victory of capturing both the IWGP Tag Team Championship and the Strong Openweight Tag Team Championships, signalling their challenge for both titles, officially turning both men heel for the first time. The duo later accompanied Bullet Club leader, David Finlay to the ring in Bullet Club shirts, officially joining the stable. On 4 July, night 1 of NJPW Independence Day, Kidd (now under the shortened name Gabe Kidd) and Coughlin defeated Bishamon to win the Strong Openweight Tag Team Championships, marking both men’s first NJPW championships. Later in the month, Kidd participated in the G1 Climax making his tournament debut and competing in the A Block. Before the tournament, at the press conference Kidd attacked fellow A Block participants, Yota Tsuji and Kaito Kiyomiya, causing him to be removed from the conference prematurely. In the tournament, Kidd finished with 5 points, failing to advance to the quarterfinal round. On 9 October at Destruction in Ryōgoku, Kidd and Coughlin lost the Strong Openweight Tag Team Titles to Guerrillas of Destiny (El Phantasmo and Hikuleo), ending their reign at 97 days.
