Regarding Muta in WWE:
He doesnt need to. He is head honcho in AJPW. Ultimo Dragon on the other hand is the reason there is something called Dragon Gate today as many of the big names (Dragon Kid and CIMA being the most notable) from that company are understudies of his

Yeah I know dudes big time but he hasn't been relevant over here with a mainstream audience in quite some time. People that follow wrestling close know him but the youngsters now have no reference point.

Point taken. But people ought to know though

That's the conclusion I came to. One time I saw a match when he held that shit for damn near half the match...

Jushin "thunder" Liger & Ultimo Dragon are my favs but the most known are probably Muta or Tajiri.

Can't Forget about Masa Chono.

Louisiana Crude

The Great Muta

The Great Muta could wrestle his ass off too.

His feuds with a young Sting were the truth.

twizza 77

Muta was beast with the Mist. Chono is a close 2nd, that match he had Barry Windham was a classic.

Disciplined InSight

The Great Muta

Muta wins this one hands down.
