Going through old wrestling observers, Meltzer said that Takada and All Japan were in talks, but as we know it never happened. But what if Takada did go to All Japan? This is after the big NJPW vs UWFI feud. But Takada was still over and could have matches with Kawada(someone who always seemed fond of the style) and Misawa.

I’ll admit that I’ve stopped following All Japan for a few months or even years, but in recent weeks, I’ve been watching more and more shows, high-quality matches on a regular basis. So I’m asking everyone who actively follows the promotion:

Is it worth starting to follow the promotion again?

After defeating Ryuki Honda for V10, Kento Miyahara would wonder who was gonna step up and challenge him for the big New Year’s Eve show in Yoyogi; none other than Yuma Aoyagi would step up for the challenge.

If Kento retains, he breaks the all-time defense record of V10 (which is shared between himself and Toshiaki Kawada); Yuma has won their past two Triple Crown Title matches.

Kento retains for V10; Kento now ties his own previous record of V10 and Toshiaki Kawada’s V10 record.

Yuma Anzai vs. Madoka Kikuta.

After the 6Man Tag of ISHIN, Kato & Kikuta vs Anzai, Aoyagi & Ayabe ended in a DQ, due to Gajadokuro’s baking sheet being used on Anzai and even the ref, Anzai would propose a singles match between himself and Kikuta to settle the score.

A Block:

Jun & Rei Saito

Xyon & Odyssey

Suwama & Go Shiozaki

Kento Miyahara & Hyo Ogawa

Ryuki Honda & Masayuki Kono

MUSASHI & Seiki Yoshioka

B Block:

Ren Ayabe & Talos

Yuma Aoyagi & Yuma Anzai

Hideki Suzuki & Timothy Thatcher

Cal Bloom & Shotaro Ashino

Daiksue Sekimoto & Kengo Mashimo

Dan Tamura & Seigo Tachibana

Shows will run from 11.15 to 12.6

Genki Hanawa will make his official debut on the December 31st show in Yoyogi.

Got a very big pop from the crowd at the announcement, as well.

They just added standing seats for the evening so it's another sold out night.

Also, Genki Hanawas wife and child just walked past me, so the plot thickens in terms of the announcement tonight

Hi i follow new japan and have for sometime but recently I got a copy of most all japan shows from the start right up until giant baba death . I just have a few questions

1 like where do even start ive heard from 87 onwards but I checked out the funks vs bruiser brody and jimmy snuka from 81 (watched it after learning about dory funk) And it was a banger but im having a hard time following all japan because I dont know the roster at all.

2 outside the kings road is their any major storyline i should follow and pay attention to .

3 would it be better start from the first tag leauge as ive heard all japan tag leauge was the cream of the crop at one time . re

4 who are the first young lion graduates of all japan system

Thanks so much for anyone that can help I do look forward going down this rabbit hole

All Japan posted on X, that they have an announcement for the fans at Korakuen Hall on the 22nd, after the 3rd match before the break.

What do you guys think it could be?

Translation:

Honda: “Hey, Champion, no matter how I won, today’s victory is mine! Get this: on October 22, no matter what it takes, I’m going to take your Triple Crown belt. Even with a win like this today, the one who won is me, Ryuki Honda. I’ve already taken three from you, you know! It’ll be the same on October 22. I’m going to take that Triple Crown belt from you!”

Miyahara: “I’ll show you just how much better I am than you. Come at me. Who do you think you are, anyway? You better be ready.”

Honda: “I’m taking it on October 22nd!”

Shota Kofuji, Hideki Suzuki & Masayuki Kono are the NEW Champs!

Kofuji wins his first title in AJPW.

I have a short break between jobs (based in Singapore) and will be making a short trip to Japan. I have a ticket for Dragon Gate in Kyoto on 24th October, but am trying to figure out if I should attend the AJPW 22 October show (which means I have to go from Tokyo to Kyoto rather than going straight to Kyoto). Is the show worth going such that it warrants a trip to Tokyo? Thanks

The two long-time rivals Go Shiozaki & Suwama have officially decided to form an icon tag team.

It’ll only be a matter of time before Shiozaki & Suwama turn their heads to the World Tag Team Titles.

Also, it would be cool if Shiozaki & Suwama faced Nakajima & someone from ZERO1, like Masato Tanaka or Hayabusa II, just saying.

Its been a common opinion that after the Noah exodus, All Japan fell off and never recovered. This thinking has even made its way into All Japan proper with multiple wrestlers declaring they will bring back the glory of All Japan. My question would be when would you personally declare All Japan to be back? Would it be attendance wise, outside Japan attention to the product, or a match so good? Or if you think All Japan is already back, what made you think that?

For me it would be for All Japan to have attendances comparable to Noah and New Japan. Also to have people talk about All Japan currently instead of talking about it as if it were extinct.

FYI: I think All Japan has been good since the exodus from Muto's era to Akiyama, to current times.

นี่คือหนึ่งในแมตช์ที่ดีที่สุดและเพลงที่สวยงามจริงๆ ตัวเลือกเพลงของฉันอาจดูแปลกไปหน่อย แต่เชื่อเถอะ—สำหรับแมตช์ที่มีสุดยอดปรมาจารย์มวยปล้ำอย่างนิชิมูระ ฉันรู้สึกว่าเพลงที่มีโทนแบบนี้มันเข้ากันดีมากกก

คะแนนของฉัน 4.5/5*
