New AJPW Triple Crown Champion


The Great Muta is now the IWGP Heavyweight Champion and the AJPW Triple Crown World Heavyweight Champion. This is very good to see. Muta was one of the first Japanese wrestlers that I was exposed to, thanks to NWA, around 1989-1990. His matches with Sting were classics. Shame on WCW for treating him like hell, the last time he was there.

Keiji Mutoh is one of the all-time greats and it is very good to see him walking around with the two top titles in Japan. It would be awesome, though not very likely, if he could win the NOAH GHC and declare himself the King of Japan.

For anyone not familiar with his work, watch this:
