Could Kensuke Sasaki draw in SoCal?

[Jay Cal]

He's been in Hawaii now for a while. He's wrestling Indys in Japan and if he continues wrestling in Hawaii he's only an 4 hour plane ride away. Would anyone pay to see him? Could he draw? I mean wouldn't Frankie Kazarian vs. Kensuke Sasaki be interesting? Or what about Samoa Joe vs. Kensuke Sasaki? That's the match I'd love to see. I don't know why, but I love to see Joe beat up the Japanesse.

Has anyone else had the same thought or is this a pretty much mute point?

Who?

[SOCALSTRONGSTYLE]

I a huge kensuki sasaki mark.I for one would love to see him in so cal.Other than fans of puro and old wcw not alot of people wouldnt know who he is.His match vs kawada in 2002 is one of my all-time favorites.

[SOCALSTRONGSTYLE]

Oops double negative.I meant that not many people would know him outside wcw and puro fans.

[SoCal Tom Walters]

I would of liked to see Sasaki if it was still like 1995.

id go see him but i dont know if he would draw big

[DJChopstix]

I don't think it would be a big draw, but I think that it would make for interesting match-ups.

And Jay Cal...why must you hate Japanese? Why do you derive pleasure from watching Samoa Joe beat up on Japanese? An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind...Thank you.......and come again...

I would love to see Joe or Dragon fight with him, as long as he is as stiff as he used to be.

I'd like to see this angle work out. That Kensuke would beat Frankie or whoever the PWG Champion at the time. Then Joe could cut an awesome promo like he did on Masato Tanaka in Zero One, in the Fire Festival Tournament. Then the next PWG show, Joe could take on Kensuke and after a very stiff match, Joe could walk away with champion. Maybe PWG could work something out where there title could be defened in the Japanese Indy Scene, because I guess that is where Kensuke is getting a lot of his work right now. If the angle played out long enough, maybe some PWG regulars could get some exposure in Japan.

I'm not sure if it's legal to be a wrestling fan and quote Gandhi...

Sasaki wouldn't draw anyone. He's an upper carder, but not a main event draw in Japan (despite about a half dozen tries to make him a superstar). And he's not a "workrate fan" type of wrestler, so I dunno who he'd attract to shows in SoCal.
