TONY WHY ARE WE SCREAMING YOU HAVE A MICROPHONE 😂
BEECAAUSEE ITTS GREEEATT to beee heeere tonnigghtt andd wee haave aa greeat shhooww AEW is doiing beeteer than eveer
Bc he wants to be edgy like Mr McMahon
Tony Khan knocked into the table and knocked the picture of Inoki over
I went: 😱😱
And Rocky with the save. Whew 😅😅
This was really nice. I love how Tony shows so much appreciation to wrestlers and pioneers of the wrestling industry.
No one knew tha chant lol
NJPW wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Inoki who founded the company back in January of 1972 so I thank Inoki for that.
Yea, and its not like ANYONE else has ever honored Inoki, or gave him the praise he deserves.
Thank God Tony Khan did that so people could know who Inoki is.
Without TK doing this, Inoki would have faded off into obscurity.
Rip the Legend
LEGENDARY. It was a privilege to be there and chant for INOKI 🙏
Who is inoki
@@haider7866He was the founder on New Japan Pro Wrestling. This was on the one-year anniversary of his death.
until you are not really sure wtf his famous chant is. like this year when tony calls the crowd to chant antonio inoki's famous chant, and nobody knows wtf it is
Antonio inoki is a true living legend he deserves to be celebrated for all the things he has done for pro wrestling Tony Khan did the right thing🎉
Living legend? Bro, he dead😮
he may have been passed away but at least he's being remembered as a living legend in wrestling
Living legend would mean he’s alive. But I get what you mean, his spirit lives on.
I'll never forget Antonio Inoki vs The Great Antonio. What a shoot that was! 😮
Nice to see aew pay tribute to antonio inoki with aew wrestledream but I’m pretty disappointed they cut out the “father of the year” christian cage part of this segment.
FACTS
This is the first time I’ve seen you not say FACTS. I agree with what you said.
I was looking for that part too!
Inoki and Baba paved the way for guys like Misawa, Nakamura, Tanahashi, Okada, Naito, etc
One good thing I can say about Tony Khan is that he cares about people. He has compassion and goes out of his way to help others. 👏👏👏
zzzzzzzzzzzz
The wrong people!
@@travelingman5146 😂
People hate on Tony but he is truly a big fan of the world of wrestling, he keeps up on what is going on and the people that are important in the business!
Crowd didn’t know “Ichi! Ni! San! Daaaa!!!” Which was Inoki’s famous line.
But it’s great to see that in US soil.
He tried to do it again this year and embarrassed himself. I don't think he should do it again, just put it on a banner
"The place was so quiet I could hear a black hole turning in outer space." 🤣😂
@@above.average.gaming.natio3026 Corny!
😂😂😂😂😂 ty jim cornette
Here after listening to Corny too 😂
Tony may not be the best speaker but every time he’s on the mic he flows like an excited twelve year old; you can’t fake that genuineness. 🤝
yeah he may have flaws but having a boss that thanks you and shows his appreciation for your work infront of people is rare and for that respect to Tony
@@markbacaron8753 People call him a mark acting like it's a bad thing to have a boss who loves the business he's involved in.
I never understood why being mark for wrestling is considered a bad thing. I'm a mark and I really don't care what anyone thinks. Also 2 more things. I would love to have a boss like Tony Kahn, my boss is a complete dick head ( I'm self employed). 2nd thing is. ADAM COPELAND AKA EDGE IS FUCKING ELITE. HELL YEAH😂😂😂😂😂.
RESPECT to Tony and AEW🗾! Compare the respect shown here to racist pos vince at Stamford who historically goes out of his way to bury Japanese talent, don't forget he went out of his way to remove Inoki as a world champion from "official canon" after he took over from his father because he despised Japanese people.
Thank you AEW for giving Antonio Inoki the respect he deserves and shame on vince
Probably the amount of coke tbf
In the words of the immortal Rick James....."Cocaine is a hell of a drug."
Maybe but you broke and Tony Khan rich and getting richer
His heart is in the right place but he needs to let sommelier do these things coz he is the worst on the mic this was really embarrassing can’t wait 2 hear what my cult leader has 2 say about this 😂😂
Someone else not sommelier 😂😂
Because of you comment Tony feared for his life 😆
cutting to christian was WILD
They did it for a reason. It will be awesome.
I really do appreciate Tony Khan for respecting all legends
Yea, bc without TK, no one would have ever known who Inoki was or gave him any kind of credit for anything.
Thank God for TK.
@@Steven-mk4ggI hope ur joking and ur being sarcastic
@gamerb3061
Nope, 100% real with that statement.
No sane person can deny that, without the humble genius of the Master Promoter tony Khan, even the idea of Antonio Inoki would fade silently and swiftly into irrelevance.
Thank the wrestling Gods for our savior, The Immortal Tony Khan.
Hopefully, that one made it a little more obvious, I know things like sarcasm are often difficult to convey in text.
@@Steven-mk4gg greatest boss ever
He was more than just my inspiration he was the motivation of my lifestyle to keep on do and be better also learned and moved on may you still be at peace you meant all of us and your spirit will be with us for life.
Rest In Peace Antonio Inoki 🙏🙏🙏 Prayers for the family 🙏🙏💖 God Bless 🙏
This guy might not be a great booker but he is a very kind and generous man. Love his passion
Ochi he ah naa. Empty Seats
RIP legend.This is beautiful tribute to him.He would love this tribute to him.😓❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐💐
R.I.P
@@scottdavis9135 😓🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐💐❤️❤️❤️
That was genuinely gracious of AEW.
Also, why do I get the feeling that the picture frame falling is going to end up on a certain UA-cam series? 🤔😂
Rocky Romero with the save of the year. 😅
Yeah TK knocking the picture over
@@MatthewSmith-nt7rj He can be so awkward. 🤣
@@Tranceplant82Tony Khan been partying for days 😎 he must have been sooo Lit he everything went smoothly on the ppv though 👍🔥
Just when you think Tony couldn't be any more awkward.
Great Tony Khan who dedicated this fantastic event to the living legend Antonio Inoki R.I.P. Antonio Inoki ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
R.I.P. the living legend 🤣🤣🤣
Oh he's alive and well alright... no wait hold on now ... siiiighhhh!!! Jim cornette voice 😂
@@JerryAttrick-c4s HAAAAWWW
@lordnaz666 don't make me get my ray cons out now pal! 🤣🤣
Man, everything positive happened on my birthday! (1st October)
We got a nice tribute to a Japanese legend.
Adam Copeland made his debut.
But best of all, I got a birthday cake that was decorated around the outside with KitKats! 👍🏻
Meanwhile Christian Cage is there. Brooding about dead parents.
That was a perfect cut
Let's not forget who made this show happen, Daddy's money
So?
Tony Khan is my favorite cartoon character 😂
The gifted that keeps on giving 😂
Good lord this was weird. Tony khan eyes look like going to pop out
Seing christian in the background I was literally terrified I thought christian would come out and give Inoki grand children life lesson as they lost his grandfather
Thanks guys
Christian at the end 😂😂😂
Fair play Toney for doing this and respecting the pioneers of the business! Inoki was a fearless god of wrestling who done so much in and out of the ring. Inoke bom ba ye.
I love that TK honours the legends and appriciates the history of wrestling. But he does need to tone down his mic work lol
Great tribute but, awe dude!? Where’s the Christian cameo?
Dude, why he's yelling into the microphone? It was working perfectly
This was absolutely beautiful seeing Tony Khan paying tribute to and honoring the late legendary Antonio Inoki, I truly appreciate & celebrate moments like this. R.I.P. Antonio Inoki. ICHI! NI! SAN! DAAAA!!🎉 🎀💐🎗🎀💐🎗💐🎀💐🎗💐🎊🙏🏽🙏🏽
Inoki is the 1st and only wrestler to fight in North Korea
Kollision in Korea
Against Ric Flair
AEW IS THE BEST💪💪💪💪
😂😂😂
Why is the arena empty?
Pro wrestling uniting people and generations together
I just luv TONY KHAN he's soo cute &has a Big heart ❤🇬🇺💞👏✨💜💫
aw hell nah you're simping for creepy khan
Tony khan really doesnt know how to be human lol
RIP 🙏
Man you gotta love Christian Cage 😂
DEAR GOD GIVE US BACK ANTONIO INOKI AND WILL GIVE U DANIEL VIDOT !!!!!
AEW the best wrestling company ever? YES!
LOL
@@XavierGage Cope.
2:13 Tony knocked over Inoki 😂
Tony was Lit 😎 that day
This
Was
Pathetic
02:12 B-B-B-BOTCH
❤ dream
Who else cringed for a sec when inoki’s picture fell over I thought tk was gonna break it by just leaning on the table
You know christan is going to feud with them boys over their dead grandfather.
stop it already, you bring them up last year, this year you bring them up again
I’ll never forget when Hulk Hogan knocked Inoki’s arse off the apron and won the IWGP championship
What's wrong with you
Qué suerte que Tony es un gran fan del Wrestling. Y además un gran conocedor y entendido. Puede y quiere hacer muchas cosas por el Wrestling.
Rip who in haven with mummed Ali
A lot of empty seats to go with their empty hearts.
Ha.
Rocky is inoki student?
Antônio was at my house for the last time in 2017 because he gave a talk held at an event that I had never heard of (Bunkyo), but I watched it on the internet, I think it's a political thing. After the lecture ended, he slapped the boy who attended the lecture. lol 🇧🇷
2:15 TONY KHAN 🤣🤣🤣
Lmfao.. comedy gold
i watch him guest star in the movie the bad news bears goes japan on starz when i was a teenager
Fun facts: When Anoki had his own promotion he would book himself as world champion for years and he was known to go off script and actually try to hurt his opponents.
That's so based
Well, that was awkward. Lol
Tony Khan vs CM punk match🔥🔥😂
In a Lunge match
INOKI BOM BA YE, INOKI BOM BA YE
R.I.P ANTONIO
ICHI, NI, DAAA !!
Lots of empty seats. Should've done this when the building was packed.
It was done before the show like it's done on Japanese tradition it's mostly for respect wise than get ratings or views for it on the internet it's disrespectful
Doc Gallows approved 👍🏻
Dude didn’t blink once ☃️
Jesus Christ it looks empty
It's before the preshow a hour before the show the place the area was packed
Tony is so weird 😂😂😂
You take the cake on being the weirdest in every situation
@@detmorales9151 😆 🤣 😂 U Mad
Cool moment
Gosh Tony could learn some camera work
Such a legend passed away 🌱
RESPECT to Tony and AEW🗾! Compare the respect shown here to racist pos vince at Stamford who historically goes out of his way to bury Japanese talent.
He went out of his way to remove Inoki as a world champion from official canon when he took over running the company from his father and either uses them as evil caricature heels or weak pathetic jobbers (Kai En Tai , Yoshi Tastu ) . So unless you are a juiced up hulk or a Samoan you almost have zero chance at the big belt(for all the marks who say Yokozuna was world champion, he was portrayed by a Samoan).
AEW on the other hand gives everyone a chance to go over and all wrestlers treated equally.
Thank you AEW for giving Antonio Inoki the respect he deserves and shame on vince and his sports entertainment
Why the 🤬 is he screaming 😂? This man is clearly not comfortable talking on a microphone 😂😂. Jesus, he's awkward asF 😂.
This comment section is amazing
Was he the owner of NJPW the guy that died
At a empty almost arena and no one gave a shit 😂 you'd hear someone coughing in the crowd that's how boring it was 😂😂😂
Inoki would’ve stretched Tony Khan
2:13 CRINGE!
Fear for your life watching this
Presentation should have been done during the show when all people were seated
I agree
Does Tony Khan ever blink?
At then end too much coke tony 😂
Tony is not good for OnAir roles
Better than Triple H
@@allstarcom0615 no better then Vinnie 😂
@@Marco_ZZZZZ At least he's not a rapist like Vinnie. Additionally, Vinnie has been TERRIBLE in recent years. That stunner from Austin at Mania was disastrous.
Tony is not on coke and he's great for on air roles .. you're just jealous of Tony
ICHI! NI! SAN! DA!
I was sent here for an awkward chant, has it been edited out!?
4:46 they edited out the original chant though. It's only the last one 😂
What a Joke - Tony with a Mic 😂😂😂 4 Years AEW , and Tony Can do s Great Job on TV with s Mic !
Shame on You Tony
Nope not a joke and Tony did great on the mic and that was a great dedication something you can do. So shame on you and keep being jealous of Tony
Shame about that picture
Christian 👀
Empty
Pre-show, Einstein.
Your head is empty.
@@Tranceplant82 I think CM Punk would say "an empty-headed df."
*"Tony-chan! Prease no more! Prease stop!"*
Dude's picture even took a bump 🤣🤣🤣 Inoki spinning in his grave from cringe rn 😂
😂😂😂😂
Cringe.
WHERES CHRISTIAN?
just ring the bell 10 times and stfu...
