Thanks for the recommendations and taking the time to write that up for me. I will check them out. All I really know about AJPW is hearing about some of the different name American wrestlers when they wrestled matches there a few decades and knowing Giant Baba started it, so look forward to learning about it and familiarizing myself with its history.
Nice piece. I discovered NOAH a few years ago and the enjoy watching the shows a lot due to the general hard hitting physical style throughout. However, I'm not very versed yet on the history of the promotion and background of the various top names over the NOAH's history. I liked how you gave some background in the beginning on the two wrestlers, and the match description was well down and gave a good feel for the action.
Thanks so much! I appreaciate your comment. If you're interested in the history of NOAH, a lot of it is tied to All Japan Pro-Wrestling. There are some great pieces of content that delve deep into both AJPW and NOAH. Some of them include:
1. Walking The King's Road - A brilliant series by Joseph Montecillo
5. Wrestling Colin's video on Mitsuharu Misawa (The founder of Pro Wrestling NOAH): will clue you up on NOAH quite quickly. An absolutely magnificent and well-compiled doumentary
