yeah that crowd was electric
Indeed, but again Japanese wrestling fans love their Southern/-esque Wrestlers. I think it is because their style, King's Road, is based on that old Southern Style. And I remember reading somewhere that Jay was hesitate about using the J-Driller in Japan because of its close association with Misawa.

that does make sense, especially that, correct me if I am wrong, but Japanese crowds really like tag team wrestling especially the 80s southern style as you mentioned. Shame FTR never toured Japan. Stupid Covid

Yeah, they do like that 80s Southern and even Midwest style, the reason why The Steiners and such were so over. Yeah, if FTR toured Japan, especially NOAH or AJPW, then they would be loved heavliy.
