Hers's a taste of SOAP OPERA of pro-wresling promoters can make your head spin with sheeeeee-it like this wrote:Hoshu vs. everyone else in Japan.
Choshu's group is the only true big-league men's group in Japan with their own autonomy. Every other big-league men's group is now connected as if someone wrote a script based on Kevin Bacon's 6-degrees-of-separation. Let's take a look at the connections...
New Japan - tied up with K-1, PRIDE, Pancrase, and to a limited extent with NOAH.
All Japan - tied up with K-1, PRIDE, and ZERO-ONE.
NOAH - tied up with New Japan and ZERO-ONE.
ZERO-ONE - tied up between NOAH & All Japan as a bridge group, helped by New Japan staff for booking buildings.
Choshu - cooperation with guys from All Japan, but not with All Japan itself.

I saw a show where they walked up and down Takeshita-doori in Harajuku asking black dudes to do Bob Sapp impressions. Haha. I am surprised they made it out of there alive. Just like the "gaigo gakuin" on karakuri tv, Bob Sapp is promoting stereotyping of foreigners in Japan, but that gives him a lot of power. If he uses it right, he can actually help us out.

...'Pride' is much better. They wanted to expand the audience of K-1 to the States? It came across as a joke.
