What's with the two guys with Kurt Angle-esque tights?

 

Those would be the Florida Brothers. They originally called themselves Iwasa Gundan in 2004 and their gimmick, more or less, was that they were complete losers who couldn't beat even the weakest of Toryumon's wrestlers (the one, the only Stalker Ichikawa). So they went on "overseas warrior training" which turned out to be set in Florida, and when they returned they had dyed their hair blonde, changed their first names to Michael and Daniel, and revealed their new strategy that they learned in Florida; tricking the referee into thinking that their opponent has done something dastardly enough to justify a DQ finish. They also speak with sort of exaggerated American accents where they put emphasis' on the wrong syllables in words sometimes and throw in English randomly.

 

Other members of the Florida Brothers' entourage include their perennially unlucky masked sidekicks, Johnson and Jackson Florida (both of whom are in the battle royale), and Kensuke Sasaki, who shows up in Dragon Gate once every few months to team with the Brothers.

 

Also, here's the full battle royale via YouTube.
