Would you know if 12,807 fans is what they were expecting or not?

[OldSchoolFan]

Couldn't tell yah. I just C/P'd that stuff from some other site so it was posted here heh.

[Hisaharu Tanabe]

This card was produced by Keiji Mutoh (All Japan president) and Kazuyoshi Ishii (Seido Kaikan president/K-1 producer) but was actually promoted by All Japan.

Satake wrestled as "SATA...yarn". Whatever that means...

[DANGEROUS DAN]

How is this suppose to raise All Japan For them to become the second origanization to have their top stars lose to Iishi's shooters? At least Randleman was 'nice' enough to out over Hase and Kojima. Coleman would have for the right price, but that price is high (see PRIDE 1 FOR proof).

The problem is the fact that Ishii helped Muta secure a deal with Fuji TV for production of a broadcast show for All-Japan. So far I have seen nothing of it, aside from a stupid proposal to have the show be a variety show instead of a sports-oriented show, so on that aspect Ishii is calling the shots. And now there's going to be a Wrestle-2... Someone stop these two idiots!!

oka i live in ohio can some one tell me how i can watch wrestling from japan im tired of buying tapes to see whats going on

[Muiyan]

Tough luck, buddy.

check ebay.com!

This show did a 8.4 rating much better than the normal of 5.0 for that timeslot. I don't know what that means but it sounds pretty good by the way the highest quarter was 12.0 during the Muta-Sapp match.

[terrier mask]

Every point is like 1 million, and some thousand people watching the show. So like 8 million, and like 6 thousand people watched the show. Hope that helps. I don't like the fact that the show was very WWE-ish, but when I get the chance, I will get the tape though. And by the way, don't you love that name APEMAN NIGO? I think that is such a stupidly cool name!!!!

[kkeller]

If I'm not mistaken Nigo is the name of the "Bathing Ape" guy so I like it for that reason. It must be nice having a wrestler's gimmick named after you.
