Some of my favorite matches in the company's history are from that era, despite it being their lowest point.
Do you have any specific matches that you’d love to rep off the top of your head? I’m unfamiliar with this period beyond the general vibe of New Japan struggling under Inokiism and the general outlines of direction you talked about.
