>>120136391. New Japan's willingness and obsession with sending whoever at anytime to random shows thanks to Ohbari not wanting to let his obvious failure with the US branch completely die
2. Small indy with taped regional TV is different from national TV with PPV, and Tony & Rocky have absolutely no clue how to present ANY of these people as major stars for TV
Tony's also severely desperate for his smark brownie points which causes him to book erratic shit with no plan that does nothing to help business. Okada in AEW? Ok cool. Plan it out with VTRs to hype him up and give him a big star to run a program with? Naaaaah have Orange Cassidy ring him up for a random tag match 4 days in advance because some guys looked at him funny one time. And because Japanese promotions love being BDSM'd and sodomized by US groups (WCW, TNA and AEW just for New Japan alone), they'll just go along with it.
