I've heard that A-Train has become a major star while wrestling in Japan. I haven't seen any of his work from over there, but I always thousght he was a good big man. Can anyone tell me how he has been?

Missed yea it could been better. But the improvement of Train and Tomko maybe not. Sure everyone would love to see Angle take on the major names in Japan but who knows it could happen. I would liked to see Angle on one on one with his partner.

This is a big opportunity for Albert, as he's actually taken seriously in Japan.

Can anyone tell me how he has been? he's been hailed as The New Vader/Bam Bam meaning he is the TOP big man in Japan. Tomko has also been really awesome in New Japan. This will be good because Angle has worked with both of these guys while in WWE and TNA, so he is familiar with them. Eventually New Japan will put him in a program, but putting all the Gaijins together in one match won't be a waste. |

Also, Goldust as "Gold Dustin" is wrestling on 2/17 for AJPW teaming with Hakushi to take on The Great MUTA and TAJIRI. Now that should be awesome!

I hope something will happen in the tag match so that Angle & Nagata lose do to a miscommunication between the two. Then they could have a big post-match scuffle, which will set up Angle vs. Nagata in the near future.

Sounds like a good match. I heard that Tomko and Bernard were mega stars in Japan, Bernard moreso then Tomko. I'd love to see this match.

Ahh, Japan. Your cartoons may seem very dorky and your taste in sex is very questionable, but your effect on the wrestling community makes us love you.
