I've heard of this guy, isn't he the one that had about 8 ***** matches?

Either way, RIP, as it's always sad to see a legend leave us.

I never watched Japanese wrestling, and I've never seen one of his matches, but I know who he is, and I've heard his name quite a few times. It's always sad to see a wrestler die, and especially like this.


RIP

It was nearly 10 minutes of CPR in the ring :/. I'm not genius, but I would think they'd have liked to have gotten him into an ambulance sooner, and CPR may not have been good on his chest with a heart attack.

Sucks. RIP!

And word to the above about Sean Taylor! :(

I don't think it would have mattered. Judging by the footage i've seen, he looked deceased in the ring. One of the medics I believe was about to stop before he was told to continue.

I'm not too familiar with Japan's wrestling circuit though it's terrible what happened to that poor guy. Did Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase's father die in the ring too years ago?

Yeah, Iron Mike DiBiase died of a heart attack in the ring due to build up of cholesterol.

^They've restricted video of the backdrop, all they have is him being attended to after the match was halted.

Just the aftermath, I haven't seen a vid of the backdrop yet.
and you will keep waiting for to see it for your whole life as they wont show it at all.
Is it true that he calls the suplex he used the 'Death Landing'?
ppffft, the best name for it would be tbh.

I remember watching a cartoon about the tiger mask wrestler. (very old cartoon) and then when I saw him wearing that mask and outfit just exactly the same as the cartoon figure; I realised that he was a legend a long time ago.
