Giant Baba Memorial show on 2/5/05

An updated list of participants have been announced for next year's big All Japan tribute show to the late founder of the company, Shohei "Giant" Baba, which will take place at the Nippon Budokan Hall.

All Japan: Keiji Muto, Toshiaki Kawada, Hiroshi Hase, Satoshi Kojima, Taiyo Kea, Masanobu Fuchi, Kaz Hayashi and more
Freelancers: Genichiro Tenryu, Yuto Aijima, Kensuke Sasaki, Takao Omori, Tarzan Goto, Shigeo Okumura
Michinoku Pro: Jinsei Shinzaki
Dragon Gate: Masaaki Mochizuki, Susumu Yokosuka, Darkness Dragon, Genki Horiguchi, Ryo Saito, Dragon Kid, Yasushi Kanda
Johnny Ace (WWE): Rodney Mack, Chuck Palumbo
Ceremony guests: Stan Hansen, The Destroyer, Yoshihiro Takayama, Seiji Sakaguchi, Hayabusa

The big surprise edition is obviously the Johnny Ace/WWE representatives, Rodney Mack and Chuck Palumbo, who have absolutely ZERO history in Japan and have NEVER set foot in an All Japan ring. Heck, they aren't even employed by WWE anymore.
