Sakuraba won his first wrestling belt yesterday and gave a shoutout to his best friend and NJPW legend YOSHI-HASHI, who also broke his own curse.

He was quietly dropped from NJ and I didn't even realize til months later. Just like TAKA Michinoku.

Even though he spent most of his life in MMA, I still find it kind of weird that Sakuraba didn't win a belt until now. So much so that I started to search for some new guy named Sakuraba that I might have missed before scrolling down.

Oh, and as for Naito's new reign and the end of the EVIL era...

@Jmare007 Just because we've averted disaster doesn't mean we're out of the woods yet. You can never be too sure with Gedo these days. :ufdup:

nah idk who that is he wrestle like anybody i fw?

He's a very unique hybrid. A lot of his offense is based on stomping people's limbs and then working on it with different holds and unique ways of either keep hitting/stomping or locking in a submission move. Good striking too.

I've sadly haven't been able to see much of his work in the past year+ but I'd always thought he was one the most underrated talents on the plant and the best black wrestler alive, at least from 16'-19'. I've never understood how the fukk he never got a bigger chance in the companies he's worked with nor why he has never been able to burst out of the deep indy scene he's been in.

This is only a glimpse

Man I was just thinking what bad timing it was for Shota to go on excursion to the UK.

I assume he's been gettting no ring time at all over there.

He'd be useful to have in Japan now due the smaller roster.
