Summary

здороваться, comrades! Those PPP boys are back with the first of a new multi-part series. In this episode we look at how a slew of Soviet amateur wrestlers ended up working New Japan's inaugural Tokyo Dome show in 1989: a group of men who paved the way for future grapplers from what would soon become the former USSR to make their mark in puro. Let David and Statto (Daniel being laid low with a severe case of being too damn hot - in every sense) introduce you to the oldest-looking 28-year-olds in human history, adventures in communist e-fedding, Antonio Inoki's wild political career, Statto's second-favourite Salman, and a whole heap of terrifying suplexes from terrifying men. MATCHES: Tatsumi Fujinami vs. Vladimir Berkovich (NJPW, 24 April 1989) Buzz Sawyer vs. Victor Zangiev (NJPW, 24 April 1989) Shinya Hashimoto vs. Victor Zangiev (NJPW, 24 April 1989) Masa Saito vs. Wakha Eveloev (NJPW, 24 April 1989) Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Salman Hashimikov (NJPW, 24 April 1989) Antonio Inoki (c) vs. Shota Chochishvili (WWF World Martial Arts Championship) (NJPW, 24 April 1989)
