This is another good video from the same guy who did one about Misawa and NOAH. In this video he talks about now New Japan went through a dark period when Inoki-ism was running wild. If you don't know what Inoki-ism is it the idea that real fighters like MMA and such would put on shoot matches with pro wrestlers. As well it touches on Brock and his time over in New Japan, and I will not make any comments about it since I am sure most know how I feel about them, but I say I am glad to know he was doing the same in WWE that was in New Japan. Anyways, enjoy the video and feel free to comment.
