>>14547993The inaugural tournament "ALL TOGETHER" of the Japan Pro Wrestling Federation was held at Japan Budokan on the 6th.
Six organizations participated in this tournament, which will commemorate the inauguration of the Japan Pro Wrestling Federation: New Japan, Noah, DDT, Dai Japan Pro Wrestling, Dragon Gate, and Stardom. It was held as a charity event to support the reconstruction of the Noto Peninsula, but the venue was conspicuously empty and only 4,583 people attended.
Taichi, who won the sixth game of the day, mentioned the crowd at the venue. "The whole wrestling world is getting together and how many people are in it today, so you don't have to force yourself to do it, right? Charity can be done in other ways." "The whole group is coming, isn't it? Everyone's faces will be crushed, this one. Think about it for a moment. Is this the power of professional wrestling as a whole? Wasn't there someone who did it in New Japan Pro Wrestling? I don't know about this, but if you ask me to come out again, I'll do. You should think about it a little more
This will be the fourth time the AT has been held since the Ryogoku Kokugikan tournament in June last year. The first tournament, held in August 2011 as the East Japan Reconstruction Support Tournament, attracted 17,000 people at the Japan Budokan (super full house), and 58,273,560 yen in sales of tickets, PPV, related goods, etc. were donated to the Japan Red Cross Society.
This was the first time since the first tournament that the tournament was held in a sacred place. The number of participating organizations doubled from three (New Japan, Noah, and All Japan), but the crowd fell to less than one-third, confronting the world of professional wrestling with a harsh reality.
