Background[edit]
On December 9, 2005, the first Indy Summit was held at Korakuen Hall to bring together various promotions of the independent circuit in order to produce a unique joint show. The idea came from Eiji Tosaka, who was the Big Japan Pro Wrestling General Manager at the time. Following the success of the first event, a second edition was scheduled for December 31, 2006. The event was broadcast on Samurai! TV and Gaora (via the Puro-Kaku King mobile app).
Storylines[edit]
Indy Summit 2006 featured eight professional wrestling matches that resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3]
