Loss Posted October 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Gene Kiniski, Bruno Sammartino and The Destroyer come to the ring to pay tribute to Baba in the Tokyo Dome. Then Motoko enters the ring with a pair of Baba's boots and lays them in the center of the ring where the bell is tolled ten times. The legends step outside the ring, along with the current AJ roster, who look on while wearing track suits. Destroyer then takes the boots and gives them back to Motoko. This was a fitting tribute.

Tim Evans Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I think they booked a match between Kiniski/Bruno vs Destroyer/Baba. The three legends cut interviews including Destroyer in perfect Japanese. Touching tribute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Classy tribute with some big gaijin names making the trip. I again love the hierarchy the All Japan roster has when it comes to lining up to pay respect The image of Mokota in the dugout with Baba's boots was a lasting one.
