Wrestlers who challenged for New Japan Championships

Wrestlers who challenged for New Japan Championships

After having done two articles regarding New Japan's champions, I decided to conclude my 50th Anniversary celebration of New Japan by going another route. In the first article, we looked at wrestlers most fans knew but either forgot or didn't know won a championship. In the second, we looked at forgotten champions that most don't remember. Now, we'll look at names you should know of that competed for New Japan championships but came up short. You be surprised at the names that have come close but couldn't close the deal as far as winning New Japan gold.

Note: I don't own the pictures. I found them on Google.
