Why did big wrestlers fuck off to Japan for a few weeks here and there during runs in the 90's?

because if you can’t promo or talk, the japs wouldn’t know any difference as long as you’re a hoss you could get over

Probably working between contracts. Easy money because Gaijins were a spectacle in Japan too. Also you don’t have to talk or cut promos and if you do you can say whatever the fuck you want.

While business was down in America, Japan was still doing good so wrestlers followed the money

I mean, for the really big names, WCW had a working relationship with NJPW which is why you would see Flair in the G1 and Macho Man in the dome
