BattlARTS - Shoot Style Wrestling

[Deleted]

Here's all the basic information for this particular promotion:

Quick second note: When I picked the roster, I went with guys who I know have shooting experience, would assume could pull off this kind of style, or guys who have a reputation for being a legitimately tough guy. So if some guys (I'm going to guess Muraco and Tiger Mask) look out of place, that's why. They either would fit the part (Muraco) or have worked in a shoot style promotion (Tiger Mask).

ROSTER:
Antonio Inoki (2-0)
Brent Albright (2-1)
Dan "The Beast" Severn (2-0)
Danny Hodge (3-1)
The Destroyer (2-1)
Don Leo Jonathan (0-0)
Don Muraco (2-0)
Ed "Strangler" Lewis (1-0)

Nikolai Volkoff (1-1)
Nobuhiko Takada (1-0)
Rikidozan (0-0)
Steve Williams (1-2)
Tiger Mask (0-2)
Tom Prichard (1-2)
