TAPE #59  HISTORY OF THE IWGP JR. HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE PART 1 (VG-G QUALITY) [3 disks]
Any cruiser weight division you have ever heard of pales in comparison to the most prestigious title in the history of lightweight wrestling. 
This tape Chronicles the history of this title back to the Jr. titles in the WWF and NWA.  The early focus is on the major players in the 
Japanese Lt. Heavyweight style.  Namely Tatsumi Fujinami before he joined the heavyweight ranks and perhaps the greatest lightweight 
of all time:  the original TIGER MASK.  From there, the tape explores the origin of the IWGP Jr. title and many of its first champions. 
including Hiroshi Hase, Nobuhiko Takada, Owen Hart, Shiro Koshinaka, and Keichii Yamada who would later go on to be known as
Jushin "Thunder" Liger and hold the title more often than any other wrestler.

TAPE #60  HISTORY OF THE IWGP JR. HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE PART 2(VG-G QUALITY) [3 disks]
Part 2 in the IWGP Jr. series and by far my favorite tape as far as aerial wrestling goes, this tape has some of the greatest Lightweight
matches OF ALL TIME.  Included on this tape is the evolution of the great Jushin Liger, the "Pegasus Kid" Chris Benoit, El Samurai,
Koji Kanemoto, Shinjiro Otani,and the only meeting between Liger and SABU!  This tape also chronicles not only the IWGP Jr. title
from 1988 to the present, but focuses also on the WCW lightweight title, and the J*CROWN championship as well. You may notice that
the majority of this tape focuses on Liger, but The matches shown here are nothing like the mediocre stuff you've seen of him in WCW. 
The matches on this tape are head and shoulders above anything that he has done in America, and truly show why he is one of the best 
modern Lightweights wrestling today.
