Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted April 14, 2004 It's been driving me nuts since I saw they won the titles. I have absolutely no clue who either are. I know Kaz used to do the Shiryu thing but there's no way they have him with both tag titles under two identities. Kosuke is a totally mystery to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vermilion 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2004 I'm not positive but it looks like Satoshi Kojima in a half Sasuke mask. It even has orange and black as it's colors, so yeah, most likely Kojima. EDIT: That guy on the left looks like Kaz to me. Same build and everything. "no way they have him with both tag titles under two identities" This is Keiji Mutoh booking still right?

DCMaximo 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 The team of the Great Kosuke and Shiryu are indeed better known as Satoshi Kojima and Kaz Hayashi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted April 15, 2004 So Kaz and Kojima have the World Tag Titles and then have the All Asia Titles under masks......... ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Black Tiger Report post Posted April 15, 2004 Shiryu was Kaz Hayashi's name when he wrestled in Michinoku Pro under the mask very early in his career, and Kosuke is Kojima's take off on The Great Muta. Of course Mutoh is booking this, haven't you been reading what RickyChoysu and I have been saying about the Carnival booking? Never confuse Mutoh's booking with logic. Funny fact: When Shiryu and Kosuke won the titles, they nominated Hayashi and Kojima as their first challengers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted April 15, 2004 This is really making my brain hurt. This seems out there, even for Mutoh booking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SinToxic 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 Hey I rather have them hold the tag belts rather than any of these guys Awesome/Buchana/Jamal. They fight twice on the same card sometimes and still put on great matches, I'm happy about Kaz being used this way. Even Taka didnt get this far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
