Pacific Rim: King Kong Bundy’s NJPW run, Stardom iPPV news

Editor’s Note: This episode is free for all. No subscription needed!

In 1985, King Kong Bundy was going to be the top foreign heel in New Japan with a long program against Inoki, but then Bundy’s career path changed after he had his first match ever against Hulk Hogan while in Japan.

On the new Pacific Rim Pro Wrestling Podcast, yours truly and Fumi Saito talk about the Japanese career of Bundy and why he only had 70 matches for NJPW.

Plus, Stardom women’s wrestling is coming to iPPV during WrestleMania week. We talk about the stars, founder Rossy Ogawa, what makes it special, what role we’re going to be playing, and where you can find us in NYC that week.

Before the New Japan Cup starts, Fumi picks the talent he thinks will win and the star he thinks will break out by this summer. Plus, we discuss Scott Norton, Billy Robinson, Hayabusa, CIMA, NWO Japan, Hustle!, and more.
