"Did you guys see the 3-way between Unpronouncable For me personally....its not easy. I depend on Puro Spirit and Strong Style to help follow along. I think NJPW would catch on more in the states if the shows had an english commentary team like WWE has a Spanish one. If is isn't WWE people won't care about it regardless of whether or not the announcing is in English.

People care about TNA, ROH, Chikara, etc. Obviously, not remotely in the same numbers....but it wasnt THAT long ago that people cared about WCW.

To the casual wrestling fan none of those companies even exist. One time two kids at a CHIKARA show who sat near me wanted to know when HBK and Mysterio were going to come out. The casual fan really only recognizes that the WWE is what wrestling is. If people saw ROH or NJPW on tv after a few minutes they would wonder who the these guys are and change the channel.

But not all WWE fans are casual....not even a majority of WWE fans are not aware of other promotions. Many of the WWE fans are very aware of indys, TNA, etc. They may not watch it consistantly....but they are aware. They also love to goto live events. Many a times at TNA shows...you will find fans who will ask those HBK or Mysterio questions. They just like wrestling and want to watch.

The picture below it of Devitt and Taguchi is from that program. Anyone familar with Shockwave The Robot? Check out this match vs. Mecca Mummy. I have him booked for my fed in May.
