Toxxic 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2004 Watched a Zero-One tape yesterday and for the briefest of moments it had an advert for an upcoming TAKA Michinoku match. I was just wondering why the TAKA bit was in western capitals and the rest in Japanese writing? Same for CW Anderson. And can anybody tell me why some wrestlers have one name all in captials (like NOSAWA)? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2004 First off, CW Anderson has ALWAYS had "CW" both capitalized. I'm thinking it stands for something, but I don't know what. I never truly got the all caps, but I think it has something to do with being heel. But, like I said, I dunno. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Black Tiger Report post Posted January 23, 2004 the letters in all caps like TAKA and DICK TOGO is meant to be just artistic. Kind of like how WWE uses the Dudley Boyz and the Hardy Boyz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dace59 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2004 IIRC, it's normally a heel thing (but not all the time) and because it looks cool to the Japanese. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2004 I had heard it had to do with the arrogance of being a heel. I mean, they make them write their name all in capital letters. That is kinda arrogant, if you think about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dace59 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2004 It does indeed. Heidenreich = Dace Night (scared face, hardcore man of many big nasty moves. O'Haire = Janus (7'2 psychotic monster with a dark past.) Rhyno = Danny Willians (Dynimite Kids + Misawa + Kawada, write's like it too) </shamless plug for the fed> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toxxic 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2004 I'm intrigued by the SWF. Not sure what it is. But when I try and click on the link, it tells me the page cannot be displayed. Repeatedly. *Gary Oldman voice from Fifth Element* Anyone care to explain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
