Guest BoboBrazil Report post Posted June 12, 2003 Suzuki was a major rugby football star before joining New Japan, representing his country and competing at club level in Great Britain. He was initiated into New Japan in April, 1999, amidst much hype, and was instantly billed as a future superstar before even debuting. After a few months on an overseas learning excursion, he debuted in a high profile match at the Tokyo Dome on 1/4/00, facing Manabu Nakanishi. He quickly established himself as the top young lion in New Japan, convincingly winning the 2000 Young Lions Cup, and defeating a man three years his senior, Shinya Makabe, in the final on 5/5/00. In just his first year as a wrestler, he competed in the prestigious G1 Climax, and despite no wins, gained vital experience. In mid-2001, he formed an upstart team called Kings of the Hill with fellow young lion, Hiroshi Tanahashi, the two slowly working their way up the ranks. A little over three years after he debuted, on 1/16/03, Kenzo handed in his resignation to New Japan, deciding to join his mentor, Riki Choshu, in his new World Japan promotion. One of Japan's tallest wrestlers, Kenzo is an upcoming young star due to his size, strength, and impressive agility. I love when these Japanese guys come in.
