That was awesome! (clap clap clapclapclap): Super J Cup 1994 still owns 17 years later
Doing yesterday's piece on Hayabusa's Japanese debut at the Super J Cup 1994, I lauded the event as one of the all-time best.
So when I stumbled upon the event in its entirety, I couldn't help but give it an entry all to itself.
Eddie Guerrero, Jushin Liger, Chris Benoit, Great Sasuke, TAKA Michinoku ... so many great names made this one-night tournament unforgettable.
I remember asking my girlfriend for a VHS copy of this for Christmas my senior year of high school. To this day, it remains the coolest present I've ever received.
If you haven't seen it, you must. If you have, watch it again. You know you want to.
Enjoy, Cagesiders.
If you have any ideas for something that made you say "that was awesome!!!" pass it along. Make sure to include either your name or your SBNation handle -- whichever you'd like to be used -- and you'll get a shout you out if your idea is used! Contact me at sergio.hernandez.tx@gmail.com.

Thanks!
Living in future is so insane! I remember all the work I had to do to get my hands on some Puroresu back in the day. And how satisfying it was to have these bootlegs.
Now it’s all on Youtube with decent image quality. This generation is so spoiled!
I loved Taka as a kid. I’ll have to watch this.
