August 10, 20232 yr comment_6009273 That's awesome. Eddie was so fucking happy (and nervous) at their first meeting. Him getting to do this interview is gonna be a complete nerd out, lol.
August 11, 20232 yr comment_6009294 As someone who sunk way too much time in Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 on the N64 back in the day, I marked the fuck out hearing Kawada's theme. All of a sudden I was 19 years old in my bedroom wailing on geeks with Dangerous K all over again.
August 11, 20232 yr comment_6009295 Also wouldn't it be amazing if Eddie's worship of Kawada ends up changing his views on foreigners? It's like those two are like the little kid and the old man from Up.

It's like those two are like the little kid and the old man from Up. Kawada’s view on foreigners must have started to soften already if he has agreed to travel to North America. I don’t know where I read it (it was so long ago) but I had heard Kawada had vowed he would never come back after his “learning excursion” in the 80’s.
August 11, 20232 yr comment_6009297 He did not have a good experience on excursion to the US/Canada and would barely speak of, it. In fairness he spent that time in Texas and Calgary in the 80s , so god knows what horrors he walked in on.
August 11, 20232 yr comment_6009298 Kawada also worked for Lutte Internationale in Montreal during his excursion.
August 11, 20232 yr comment_6009299 Maybe it's just me projecting because I was one of them, but part of me thinks Kawada would probably find it cool that a bunch of American nerds were singing his praises back in the day to the point it's just gospel now to anyone who's a NA based rasslin fan.
