Mutoh still a draw in 2021.

Damn Pandemicstill waiting for that Suzuki vs Cassidy match
Getting back into digging through the AJPW Archive. There's a tag match on 1/14/86 that is supposed to be Jumbo/Tenryu vs Choshu/Ishikawa. Jumbo and Tenryu attack Choshu before the bell and he's taken out a bloody mess and has to be replaced by Yatsu in the match. This is effectively a double turn for all involved (at least when paired with each other). Choshu then begins working DDP style taped ribs for the rest of the tour and next tour, and the follow up matches are wild hateful brawls where fans are cheering for Ishin Gundan attacking Jumbo before the bell.
Grumpy ass Jumbo is definitely starting to fully form in this feud and you can see him developing the stiff lariats and boots he'd torture Kikuchi with in the Misawa feud with some of Choshu's underlings. The AJPW stable dynamics from mid 80s to I guess peak NOAH are so great and it's insane to me that no other company has really taken on that basic but richly effective template. NJ has their groups and 6 mans and all that shyt, but those are lazy matches where everyone takes things easy and they are just build up for singles matches instead of marquee matches in themselves. With AJPW, the tags and six mans to build up singles matches are I would say in a lot of cases better than the singles matches themselves.
It just sucks how tags and 6 man tags are treated both in puro and US. You never see big stars in teams and younger guys really getting a chance to shine and grow and become stars themselves as they move up the chain in the stables and shyt. You think of all the legends that came out of this booking system: Jumbo teaming with Baba, Tenryu/Misawa/Taue teaming with Jumbo, Kawada/Kobashi teaming with Misawa, Jun Akiyama teaming with Kobashi, Kensuke Sasaki with Choshu, KENTA/Marufuji doing it with Misawa and Kobashi in NOAH. The lineage just kind of dies off around 2006 with Go and Nakajima as young pups and it sucks.
