What should AJPW do next?

[Rikidozan]

Ok, so new public President of All Japan Pro Wrestling Keiji Mutoh has said a number of times he'd like to work with Mitsuhara Misawa and Pro Wrestling NOAH. If you were in Mutoh's place, what would you do next?
Strike up a working relationship with Misawa and NOAH, or maybe make some sort of deal with his good friend Shinya Hashimoto and Zero-One. Or perhaps try and sign a talent-trading agreement with NJPW or bring in some Toryumon workers? etc etc etc

What would you do next?

With Mutoh wanting to reform the Three Muskateers for the possibility of the big mix promotion show in November - Chono has said he will reunitie IF Mutoh appears on the Spiral Dome Show card!

If agreements are made, and things go according to what I would like...

I see Chono beating Laurer thanks to outside intereference from Mutoh! Annoyed that Mutoh interfered, Chono will face him at the top of the card - the match will go to a no contest with a few other wrestlers getting involved. This will all build up to the joint show that may be in the future.

This is all very dependant on the relevant sides agreeing. In an ideal world the extra match would go to a no contest thanks to intereference from Misawa and Hashimoto!

Where this leaves AJPW after the big show I am not sure.

Mixing it up with NOAH could be good for AJPW as NOAH have been getting fantastic TV ratings these last few weeks - however I am still a bit cautious with the whole "lets' all work together for the good of Japanerse Wrestling" ethois that seems to be being thrown around. As much as the one show could be interesting, long term I think I'd prefer promotions have little deals with maybe one or two other promotrions rather than all doing things together.

No matter how things go, the climate in Japan as far as wrestling goes at the moment, is very very intriguing!

Then again, that could all be a bit out of reach at the moment, this from Stuart at Strong Style Spirit:

"All Japan President Keiji Muto said today that talks between Masahiro Chono, Shinya Hashimoto, Mitsuharu Misawa and himself about working together for the "Wrestle-1" show on 11/17 at Yokohama Arena are premature. Muto went on to say that All Japan, New Japan, NOAH, & ZERO-ONE are about to start on tours and that the four Presidents need to concentrate on their businesses, but when the time is right, the negotiations will begin.
