Posted July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688561 On January 4th, 1984 New Japan will host its first Super Show.... NJPW Battle Invasion Global Attack Wrestling Dream!!! January 4, 1984 NJPWバトル侵略グローバル攻撃レスリングドリーム！ The current foreign wrestlers signed up are... The Cobra - Stampede Davey Boy Smith - Stampede Dynamite Kid - Stampede Bret Hart - Stampede Bad News Allen – World Class Dusty Rhodes - Florida Buddy Rose – Pacific Northwest / All Star Black Tiger - England Abdullah the Butcher Yoshiaki Yatsu These wrestlers will already be on tour for the big show. I am looking to make this a 6 hour extravaganza celebrating world peace and cooperation among nations. If you want to host a match on the show, you can send 2 to 4 wrestlers for the big show and tell me the finish and title you want on the line. If you want to send a wrestler or tag team to be featured against Japanese talent, that would also be appreciated. No need to rush but I want the final card finalized for promotion by the beginning of December.
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688562 I can send you Saito and Ron Starr. Don't even think about David Von Erich though, I can't afford moving that timeline up any.
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688563 Andre and Bob Backlund will be at this show. World peace and cooperation deal smacks of Johnny Powers too, so he might come if he's not deemed too old.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688565 I can send you Saito and Ron Starr. Don't even think about David Von Erich though, I can't afford moving that timeline up any. Hah! David gets sent to the other company anyway.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688566 I love the response in 5 minutes to this! Remember, you don't have to just send wrestlers, you can send matchups!!!
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688567 My guy can be used as required. No jobs for Andre. Johnny Powers to be presented as a legend of New Japan known for his many match ups with Inoki over the years, but can still job.
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688568 Don't really care what you do with Saito or Ron Starr as long as they aren't matched up with any talent sent from a promotion that cut ties with me. If you do that, Saito is under orders to break some bones.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688569 I am thinking a WWF International heavyweight Title Match between Backlund and Fujinami. I wouldn't job Andre.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688570 Don't really care what you do with Saito or Ron Starr as long as they aren't matched up with any talent sent from a promotion that cut ties with me. If you do that, Saito is under orders to break some bones. Saito will be involved with an Ishin Gundan multi man tag. I will have a solid match for Ron Starr.
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688571 JCP will send Tonga Kid and Brad Rheingans. They can be used as a tag team or singles wrestlers against New Japan talent. If as a team, win or lose it doesn't matter with Rheingans taking the fall on a loss. As singles Rheingans can lose, but I'd prefer Kid to get a win.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688573 Rheingans is loyal to Baba. Inoki will happily welcome Tonga Kid to represent the Pacific Island of Tonga.
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688577 Sounds good. I knew Rheingans did some NJPW later on, but forgot he was firmly AJPW at this point.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688579 From your roster, Flair & Gordy were also firmly All Japan.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688717 Big thumbs up to everyone who has helped out so far!!! Thanks to those who volunteered talent and who I begged for talent!!! Still waiting for a few more confirmations. I will also need some lower level midcarders / JTTS at some point for a 20 man battle royal to complete the show. Basically guys who you could see winning the battle royal but would not shock you at all if they were thrown over. Thanks!!!!
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688731 I can send El Gran Apollo for the battle royal if Inoki will promise to just send him back to San Antonio instead of having his legs broken if he decides to start being a jackass in the locker room.
July 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5688733 I cannot guarantee the safety of Apollo but have no problem throwing him in the battle royal.
July 29, 201510 yr comment_5688743 I'll just send Mike Masters (Rocky Jones) then. He's been to Japan a few times already and knows how to behave over there.
July 31, 201510 yr Author comment_5689104 I put Ron Starr vs. El Gran Apollo in a prelim match. They are out of the Battle Royal. I need 6 more guys for the Battle Royal. Once I get the list of guys, I will determine who wins based on name and use in home promotion.
July 31, 201510 yr Author comment_5689106 These are the guys I know are working the show. Everyone has been super kind in loaning out talent!!! Guys in bold are guys who are part of the tour proper. If you see any problems, let me know so I can work it out before I lock it in. Hulk Hogan (AWA) Johnny Powers, Andre the Giant & Bob Backlund (WWF) Buddy Rose & Killer Khan (All Star) Hercules Ayala, Abdullah Tamba, Sgt. Slaughter, Bob Sweetan, Invaders I & III (WWC) Greg Valentine (MLW) Dusty Rhodes (Florida) Randy Savage (ICW) Masked Superstar (WWA) Adrian Adonis (GCW) Dick Murdoch (Mid South) Bad News Allen (World Class) Tonga Kid (JCP) Dutch Mantell, Bobby Eaton & Tom Pritchard (Southeastern) Bret Hart, The Cobra, Davey Boy Smith & Dynamite Kid (Stampede) Mike Masters, Ron Starr & El Gran Apollo (Southwest) Abdullah the Butcher (Sudan) Black Tiger (England)
July 31, 201510 yr Author comment_5689275 OK, I have everyone lined up for the Battle Royal and as of now, the card is set and ready to go.
July 31, 201510 yr comment_5689276 Can someone post this to YouTube? That's how this thing works, right?
July 31, 201510 yr Author comment_5689277 The four tape VHS & Beta set will be released in June 1984. It will be about 20,000 Yen.
