C'mon now, NOAH has been a lost cause since Misawa died. They have tried everything to right the ship but have failed time and time again. "Carrying" them is NOT a positive when you look at the state that company is in.
They can't draw shyt in any building aside from Korakuen Hall (and even in there they can't get a sellout most of the time). KENTA being their n°1 Jr Heavyweight didn't mean shyt, and his push to the Heavyweight division didn't mean shyt either.
Yes, he is still over with fans and he can still have a great match from time to time (specially against big guys) but the quality level in NOAH has taken a hit in the last 2 years and KENTA hasn't escaped that.
Yeah, but I'm just saying that he was the best native entity there. I'm not refuting anything you just said, but of all the crap there, KENTA was kind of head and shoulders above most of them.
I mean, there's no reason at all that your champion should be totally overshadowed by Minoru Suzuki in a title match. I mean, it's Suzuki, but note that this didn't happen to Tanahashi this year.
