FUNK'S CORNER: LOOKING AT TWO NEW CHAMPIONS IN JAPAN

By Dory Funk Jr. on 5/1/2008 12:22 PM
Funk's Corner - Two New Champions in Japan - Great Muta and Suwama

Funk's Corner - With Keiji Muto's recent victory over Shinsuke Nakamura (4/27 in Osaka) and Suwama's recent victory over Kensuke Sasaki (4/29 at the Aichi Perfectural Gymnasium), All Japan Pro Wrestling now has the two most important Japanese wrestling championship belts under their banner, the Triple Crown Championship (Suwama) and New Japan Pro Wrestling's IWGP Championship (Keiji Mutoh).
 
The credibility of these two championships and the popularity of Muto (Known in America as Great Muta) and Suwama's wrestling background (Chuo University Amateur Wrestler) - Same University as Jumbo Tsuruta) will have a big influence in the popularity of All Japan Pro Wrestling.
 
Great Muta teams with Dory Funk Jr. and Osamu Nishimura in a Six Man Tag Team Match against the Voodoo Murders on !BANG! TV at http://www.dory-funk.com.
