IMO, the obvious choice would be Nagata. The two of them could have a great little submission battle (Nagata Lock vs. Ankle lock).
Angle in Japan, though, is crazy. He suffered a concussion in his most recent match with Joe, and now he wants to wrestle an even stiffer style with the NJPW boys. I doubt he'll make it out of '07 with the use of his legs.

I think there are several variations of the Nagata Lock. One version is a type of reverse figure-four leglock & another version is a type of Crippler Crossface. I could be wrong though...

New Japan Yuji Nagata Koji Kanemoto Shinsuke Nakamura Masahiro Chono Jushin "Thunder" Lyger Hiroyoshi Tenzan
Other Japanese wrestlers I'd like to see Angle wrestle Toshiaki Kawada Kenta Kobashi Keiji Muto/The Great Muta Kikutaro (Kikutaro's imitations of Angle's mannerisms and the inevitable Kurt lookalike mask with huge ears = comedy gold ;D )

I personally think KENTA would be the perfect choice. He's young and in great shape, so he could bounce around for Angle, and ...
... wow, who would have thought that the time would come where I'd be looking for guys who could 'bounce around' for Angle so he wouldn't hurt himself?

I'm really wanting to see Angle/Kanemoto BATTLE OF THE ANKLELOCKS!
Angle/Nagata is also a must, Angle/Nakamura would be cool, Angle/Nakanishi would be awesome.
Hell I'm down for Angle/Tomko just because Tomko works VERY stiff over there.
Angle/Liger would be cool too
Another possibility with All Japan wrestlers:
Mutoh, Kojima, Taiyo Kea (who Joe is a lot like, except Kea is in good shape), TAKA Michinoku, and Shuji Kondo

Remember when the report came out that said Angle is beginning to treat it like it's real? What happens if one of the NJPW guys goes too stiff on him? You think we have a full blown shoot? I'd say it's more likely than not at this point.

10 years ago this would have been awesome!!! Now..Meh. The choices are pretty lame in comparison. It all depends on what he's being brought in as.
As an Attraction - Nagata
To build a younger guy - Tanahasi

I am struck by the thought of how awesome it would be if TNA decided to bring in Sugiura from NOAH as Angle's protege...it's unlikely as hell, but would kick ass.
