href="/wiki/Professional_wrestling_promotion" class="mw-redirect" title="Professional wrestling promotion">promotion</a> established on October 21, 1972, when <a href="/wiki/Giant_Baba" title="Giant Baba">Giant Baba</a> split away from the <a href="/wiki/Japanese_Wrestling_Association" class="mw-redirect" title="Japanese Wrestling Association">Japanese Wrestling Association</a> and created his own promotion. Many wrestlers had left with Baba, with many more joining the following year when JWA folded. From the mid-1970s, All Japan was firmly established as the largest promotion in Japan. As the 1990s began, aging stars gave way to a younger generation including <a href="/wiki/Mitsuharu_Misawa" title="Mitsuharu Misawa">Mitsuharu Misawa</a>, <a href="/wiki/Steve_Williams_(wrestler)" title="Steve Williams (wrestler)">"Dr. Death" Steve Williams</a>, <a href="/wiki/Kenta_Kobashi" title="Kenta Kobashi">Kenta Kobashi</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gary_Albright" title="Gary Albright">Gary Albright</a>, <a href="/wiki/Toshiaki_Kawada" title="Toshiaki Kawada">Toshiaki Kawada</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mike_Polchlopek" class="mw-redirect" title="Mike Polchlopek">Mike Barton (Bart Gunn)</a>, <a href="/wiki/Akira_Taue" title="Akira Taue">Akira Taue</a> and <a href="/wiki/Jun_Akiyama" title="Jun Akiyama">Jun Akiyama</a>, leading to perhaps AJPW's most profitable period in the 1990s. </p><p>In 1999, Giant Baba died and the promotion was run by Motoko Baba. Misawa was named president but left in 2000 after disagreements with Motoko. Misawa created <a href="/wiki/Pro_Wrestling_Noah" title="Pro Wrestling Noah">Pro Wrestling Noah</a> and every single native wrestler besides <a href="/wiki/Masanobu_Fuchi" title="Masanobu Fuchi">Masanobu Fuchi</a> and <a href="/wiki/Toshiaki_Kawada" title="Toshiaki Kawada">Toshiaki Kawada</a> left All Japan. This led to a loss of All Japan's TV deal and a period of hardship for the company. In 2001, they entered a cross-promotion agreement with <a href="/wiki/New_Japan_Pro-Wrestling" title="New Japan Pro-Wrestling">New Japan Pro-Wrestling</a> which proved very successful, allowing All Japan to remain one of the larger promotions in the country, although now firmly behind NJPW. </p><p>In January 2002, <a href="/wiki/Keiji_Muto" title="Keiji Muto">Keiji Muto</a> defected to All Japan, and was officially appointed as its new president that September. He would then acquire the rights to the company and Baba family stock by early 2003, when another exodus of gaijin wrestlers began, most notably <a href="/wiki/Steve_Williams_(wrestler)" title="Steve Williams (wrestler)">Steve Williams</a>, <a href="/wiki/KroniK" title="KroniK">KroniK</a> (<a href="/wiki/Brian_Adams_(wrestler)" title="Brian Adams (wrestler)">Brian Adams</a> and <a href="/wiki/Bryan_Clark" title="Bryan Clark">Bryan Clark</a>), <a href="/wiki/Bill_Goldberg" title="Bill Goldberg">Bill Goldberg</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mike_Rotunda" title="Mike Rotunda">Mike Rotunda</a>. Not long after <a href="/wiki/George_Hines" class="mw-redirect" title="George Hines">George Hines</a> and <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Smith_(wrestler)" title="Johnny Smith (wrestler)">Johnny Smith</a> also left. </p><p>By mid-2005, All Japan's attendance had dropped and the promotion seemed to be in trouble again but by 2007 had new sponsors and seemed to have recovered. After Misawa and most of the other wrestlers left the promotion, there was a lull in developing new stars until the likes of <a href="/wiki/Kai_(wrestler)" title="Kai (wrestler)">KAI</a>, <a href="/wiki/Suwama" title="Suwama">Suwama</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ryota_Hama" title="Ryota Hama">Hama</a> and <a href="/wiki/Tetsuya_Bushi" class="mw-redirect" title="Tetsuya Bushi">T28</a> debuted from the mid-2000s onward and helped restrengthen the company. </p><p>With established stars such as <a href="/wiki/Keiji_Muto" title="Keiji Muto">Keiji Muto</a>, <a href="/wiki/Satoshi_Kojima" title="Satoshi Kojima">Satoshi Kojima</a>, <a href="/wiki/John_Tenta" title="John Tenta">John "Earthquake" Tenta</a>, <a href="/wiki/Masakatsu_Funaki" title="Masakatsu Funaki">Masakatsu Funaki</a>, <a href="/wiki/D%27Lo_Brown" title="D'Lo Brown">D'Lo Brown</a> and <a href="/wiki/Minoru_Suzuki" title="Minoru Suzuki">Minoru Suzuki</a> anchoring the promotion, the younger wrestlers were given time to grow and by 2010 were set to help lead All Japan. While still without a great TV deal, All Japan has operated consistently since 1972, making it the second-longest running promotion in Japan. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div
