I know AJPW have had some questionable imports in the past who have put in some better than expected performances- but Kronic- surely they are completey unredeemable?

Well actually I'm not sure I'd disagree.
Not many guys in the US fit in over there, and generally the guys who do are the bigger stiffer working guys.
Mike Barton for instance.
Now Kronik had like one match in WWE and it sucked. But then I think they'll be ok in Japan.
Now I've said that they'll probably suck and prove me wrong, but I think you'll be surprised

Clarke and Adams are bloody awful, Motoko must be taking lessons from Monkeyman Russo.

Plus, if you think Kronik as AJPW tag champs is bad, just remember Hogan was the first ever IWGP Heavyweight champion....now that's terrible.
Hogan's Running Forearm Of Unimaginable Pain is the definition of stiffness. Take THAT, Mr Hansen.
Anyway, nothing like Wrath and Krush to bring in the fans. Plus, it keeps them away from US TV, which can only be a good thing. Good luck to the both of them, they'll need it when they want to no sell some kicks from Kawada.

Kronic when compared to the Road Warriors in their prime as AJPW champs is just laughable- Adams has gone down hill ever since his Crush days lol!!!

Its shocking indeed finding Kronik are in Japan, the team are worthless wrestlers and they proved that when they was in WWE last September.
Abysmal team indeed........
I didnt think Kronik were that bad in WCW :)

Yeah I thought they were ok in WCW for what they were, basically a power team with big moves, which they had. They had some good matches with some of the more talented teams like the Mamalukes, and The Perfect Event.
WWF didn't know what to do with them really, other than give them to the Undertaker so he could bury another couple of careers that were starting to get over in WCW.
I'm not saying they'll be great, but I think given a chance they could prove ok.
I go back to my mention of Mike Barton earlier. He doesn't look out of place over in Japan, sure he's far from outstanding but he's worth a place out there, and Kronik are capable of proving the same. Bryan Clarke is actually quite under rated I think, and whilst Adams isn't so good, he's also not that bad.

Hey, if Scott Norton can be a huge star in Japan then Kronik should do pretty well!
