I did some average match length stats, but basically everyone is around 14 minutes +/- 3 minutes with Taiyo Kea, Kaz Hayashi, Suwama, Keiji Muto, Satoshi Kojima, Manabu Soya, Minoru Suzuki, Toshiaki Kawada on the longer end of the scale and Nobukazu Hirai, Ryuji Hijikatam, Nobutaka Araya, MAZADA, Masayuki Kono, Minoru and Joe Doering on the shorter end.

As always, if you spot any name dups, please let me know so I can update the records. (Thanks Eivion!!)

EDIT: Fixed name dups = AHII/SUGI; Kikutas Jack/Kikutaro/Ebessan/Ebetosan/Ebetaro/Kikubonotaro/Kiku Angle/Killer Kiku/Kikubonotaro/Kikucaras/Kikuberg/Kiku-kiku-kiku/Teriyaki Taro; Raijin Akira/SUSHI.

"Main Event" is always a tricky term because it implies an understanding of the landscape of a company (which feuds were the attractions; who was being pushed; which belts meant the most, etc). Since I'm not too familiar with AJPW, I'm going to offer a different statistic which may be similar enough to get to the heart of the question - records for wrestlers who were last on the card.

As for attendance draws, it's a screwy metric. You've got a few big shows that really distort things, and the rest of the time after AJPW really began it's decline, it's almost more location driven than person driven as for what the attendance is.

But for the sake of investigation, I did look at wrestlers who had 5+ "main events" (last match on the card) in a given year among at least four different years. That analysis provided this list:
Genichiro Tenryu: 3,146 avg attendance on shows = 5 years (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004)
Toshiaki Kawada: 2,776 avg attendance on shows = 7 years (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007)
