Modern wrestling if you're not WWE is all about cross promotion. NJPW have hit their ceiling in their home market and need to branch out to the West but Strong fucking sucks. Best they could hope for is a western fed putting their guys on western TV and hoping it pays off with subs to World. It must be working even a little or they wouldn't keep doing it.

Got to wonder how the Vets feel about their title, which is very rarely defended as part of their PPV strategy, getting meaningless defences against boring guys in AEW. Like what would have happened if Hobbs beat Mox? He'd go live in Japan? He'd appear on Strong? AEW treated their world title worse than their own International title.

Are you pretending NOAH has some kind of prestigious, unblemished line of champions?

Hell NJPW too

Wagner Jr is actually one of NOAH's best hands right now. I'm not thrilled with Davey but at least so far he hasn't tried to go into business for himself like Nakajima.

To me this will always be the most egregious example of a guy that would be jobbing on Heat going to Japan and being a main event heel. Like holy hell, this dude sucked

You're not wrong but you can at least see what they were going for. They wanted a new Stan Hansen.

But that's kind of my problem with it too, he was such a shameless Stan Hansen tribute act
