New All Asia tournament

[Luds]

All Japan announced that 6 teams will compete in a League to determine the new All Asia Tag Champions. the teams are

Tomoaki Honma & Kazushi Miyamoto
Hideki Hosaka & Kuroge Wagyuta
Shigeo Okumura & Nobukazu Hirai
Kohei Sato & Hirotaka Yokoi
Kintaro Kanemura & Tetsuhiro Kuroda

as much I would love to see Kanemura and Kuroda win the belts... I highly doubt it, their just not All-Japan material, but then again they do need to go in a new direction.

Turmeric Storm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still stand by the suggestion that the All Asian belt should be unofficially the Junior Tag Titles. The All Japan roster is just two week in the heavyweight department to support a third heavyweight title. Hayashi and Yang would be perfect.

I think Okumura and Hirai will get it, Honma and Miyamoto are young and lack size while O-H needs it more to become accepted as the next people to be pushed to the Double Cup. (Araya is already there as Kawada's partner, he just needs to get the belts.)

I agree with Peru-Yakuza on this. Both for the fact that Okumura & Hirai need it more than the others, and for the fact that Araya is there right now, he's a top heavyweight... Well he;s a heavyweight that SHOULD GET PUSHED. Read that Mutoh?

At least this Tag league has been booked nicely. I hate it when there's only a team or two that have a shot...

I must admit, for once Muta (or Fuchi or whoever) has seemingly given a chance to people who are both good workers and charismatic.
