(NOAH) An overflowing love for pro wrestling, about Mitsuharu Misawa, and the behind the scenes story of the production of "VOYAGE". Funky Kato interview - Part 1
11th October 2024 Proresu Today Note, the interview discussed something other than Noah initially so I have cut out that. Q: The most noteworthy point for "PRO WRESTLING TODAY" is "VOYAGE", which Pro Wrestling Noah always plays in the venue before the first match starts. FUNKY KATO: This is a good song (laugh) No, I think it's a really good song. Q: I think so. After reading "Unfinished Voice", and listening to "VOYAGE" again, I thought that Mitsuharu Misawa, the founder of Pro Wrestling Noah, would surely be happy. FUNKY KATO: That's nice. I had my own thoughts about dedicating it to Misawa-san. Q: When I hear "VOYAGE", I can picture the scene when Noah was founded. After leaving All Japan, Misawa launched Pro Wrestling Noah, named after Noah's Ark, with show names "DEPARTURE" and "GREAT VOYAGE". The concept of the promotion, of everyone setting out on the open sea, is woven into "VOYAGE".
