Not being disrespectful or anything..... but did i just saw a bald spot on liger on 1:39? :(

[kyotanahashi]

no that was his hand. but it seems he has a receding hairline from the way his mask have a padding right on top of the dome with only side opening where his hair would hang down

Koji Kanemoto is my ideal wrestler . He has it all . Great vid Kyotanahashi (as always) . Music is a bit pansy, but fitting one to use I guess, as I think alot of footage was from G1 Climax (?) . I guess it's supposed to evoke the emotions too, in celebration of Koji being rewarded for his years of dedication in New Japan, by making good showings against the top stars in the heavyweight division (?) .

[kyotanahashi]

the music he actually used in G1 climx 2006...its only fitting

I understand you like New Japan pro wrestling

and that you saw the opening to the 1/04/07 Dome Show OP. I was wondering if you know the song on that video and who was the singer. I you don't know just say that you don't know please. Thank You

[kyotanahashi]

nope

[WaywardBrigand]

Not bad for a guy who has been wrestling for almost 20 years.

Awesome video.

Kanemoto is one of the best in NJPW

[MarioMetroidFan]

What a beautiful video! Thank you very much! Koji is one of my favorites!

[MarioMetroidFan]

@beta1258 Hahaha Fuckin' awesome comment! Kanemoto kicks the shit out of his opponents and he has a background in Kickboxing and Judo. Tell him to his face that his kicks are fake.

ALOT of WWE/WWF wrestlers have worked in Japan over the years (since forever) . The list is huge . I'm surprised you're a fan of Puro Resu and haven't come across this, BobbyCalvin .
