Of course. He is easily my all-time favorite. Words fall short of the inspiration Misawa has given me. I do my best to not have a bitch attitude. I do that for Misawa. It’s how children must have felt when John Cena said “never give up” and took it to heart. If I want to honor Misawa, I have to show fighting spirit in daily life, so I that’s what I try to do.

It was rough but I knew I wasn't seriously injured, they took me to the hospital anyways and I had to wear a neck brace for a week. I took a step I guess.

I don't know, Hero was huge on the indies but never really parleyed it into a TV career outside of his NXT run. I think he would've gotten decently over in TNA around that time.

When a lot of people say king's road they're referring to the style of 90s all japan and early NOAH. Basically 80s mid south/crockette match structure, but when it gets to the finish instead of guys finding strength to kick out of a series of roll ups and flash pins it's all knock moves, mainly "sheer drop" suplexes (head drops) and power bomb variations.
But the way King's road was used in Japan was to describe the era of the early 90s when All Japan's main event scene moved away from Jumbo Tsuruta to the four pillars.

I have to disagree here. King's Road matches are notoriously different to the standard american territory structure. In general, the americans have always focused on generating the most crowd reaction, and thus, feature the most clear psychology.
On the other hand, i've noticed that japanese audiences like to see wrestlers going toe to toe, they like to be amazed by what happens in the ring. I think that's why both the Jr. Heavyweight style and the King's Road style thrived there
