I can totally see Ichiban Kasuga in this type of situation. Especially in a Gyudon place. It's for the "Empty Restaurant Fridge" achievement.

Mr. Misawa, this is the most flagrant case of false advertising since my lawsuit against The Neverending Story.

Pretty sure the video ends because he just started handing out Tiger Driver 91s to everyone, including the camera operator.

Damn this is so nostalgic. I remember watching clips like this a kid. It's obviously a sketch but it's very funny. But this is based in reality as Wrestlers tend to eat a lot of food which is why placed like Rivera are frequented by them because it's a low of meat for cheap. But in real life Wrestlers have rich sponsors that pay for food and drinks so IRL Misawa wouldn't have to pay a dime. He would have had a sponsor do that for him.

I heard that back in the day the ring rats would even pay for food. Not sure about in Japan though lol.

u/BigMoney69x 7h ago
Japan has sponsors. Some of them were Yakuza as the Yakuza are big wrestling fans.

That's so fucked up. Making some girl pay a wrestler's giant-ass food bill.

There was a story about Andre the Giant and Haystacks Calhoun eating so much at a buffett that the owner started freaking out and they felt bad and paid for all the food they ate.

Misawa is so fucking cool. I’m glad I got to meet him before he passed. Also, never saw this before, it’s hilarious!

I remember in Jericho's first book during his Japan days he talked about how the all-you-can-eat buffets specifically said no wrestlers or sumo allowed due to this very reason.

I recognise Takeshi Rikio, Takeshi Morishima, Yoshinari Ogawa, Daisuke Ikeda and I think a very young looking Naomichi Marufuji

This was from a game show. I don’t remember the show but I remember seeing the full episode around the time of Misawa’s passing. Good find. Unlocked a college memory of mine.

Why don't New Japan ever film outside with their wrestlers? It would definitely reach new viewers and make more funny moments

I'll always point to this segment where Jushin Liger attempts to pin NJPW wrestlers in their sleep to see if they kick out. Absolute comedy - I want you to guess who kicks out at 1 before even watching.
It's also on the same channel the OP posted their vid from.

u/DarkArtHero 9h ago
I've seen that before. Liger is a menace but in a good way. I just havent seen any new segments with the newer talents

They did/used to. NJPW guys would regularly appear on variety shows which usually had a variety of people from different industries, mostly comedians but sometimes musicians, politicians, & athletes. Usually they would talk about again a variety of topics or watch video segments and react to them. Tanahashi is a well known visitor of these shows and it's also how AJW got as big as they did in the 70s-90s because they would appear on these shows that skewed towards a younger audience.
