The big ones are

New Japan Pro-Wrestling
All Japan Pro Wrestling
Pro Wrestling NOAH
Inoki G-Nome(spelling) Federation

There is one or two more big 'ish ones. Masato Tanaka wrestles for one of them I believe.

I know New Japan Pro Wrestling has agreements with Pro Wrestling NOAH and some other Japanese wrestling promotions, TNA, AAA, CMLL and do inter promotional matches on occasions.
I saw one of Matato's recient matches and WOW, I bearly recognized him (in a good way). He use to be kinda pudgy in ECW but now he's cut and ripped. What would be considered a major promotion in Japan. Most of us consider a major promotion in America one that has a national weekly TV show, has monthly PPVs is that the same in Japan?
