[B][SIZE="4"]WLW Roster:[/SIZE][/B] [INDENT][center][SIZE="4"]Main Eventers[/SIZE] [img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/AwesomeThunder.jpg[/img] [b]Awesome Thunder[/b][/center] Profile: Yosuke Narita is a veteran Japanese worker, who is highly respected for the level of performances he has achieved over his career, and for being one of the driving forces behind the rise of WLW. He spent his early career traveling, learning his skills in places like Mexico, Canada and Great Britain. After returning to Japan as a better worker, he became best known for his alter ego Awesome Thunder, a character who has dominated WLW and racked up a record six Universal championships. Signature Moves: Thunder Shock (Swanton Bomb) Title History: 6-Time World Level Universal [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/BaireiYasujiro.jpg[/img] [b]Bairei Yasujiro[/b][/center] Profile: Bairei Yasujiro is a sensational Japanese wrestler, renowned for his high-risk, daredevil moves. He spent his early career traveling the world to pick up skills, working for promotions from Germany to Mexico. During his time in Mexico he even became a big star for MPWF, holding their main title during 1993. He would sometimes work occasional dates for BHOTWG during this time. In 2006, he decided to settle down in Japan, and surprisingly chose to work for World Level Wrestling. Signature Moves: Yasujiro Suplex Title History: Campeon de Herencia de Mundo MPWF, World Level Universal (Current) [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/DarkEagle.jpg[/img] [b]Dark EAGLE[/b][/center] Profile: Dark EAGLE is a veteran of the Super Junior scene in Japan; making his professional debut in 1985, he has recently passed the twenty year mark in his career. Despite his advancing years, he remains one of the most fluid, reliable, exciting junior wrestlers around. Over the course of his career he has worked for nearly every promotion going, but in recent years he has settled down in WLW, where he is a former Universal champion, and leader of the main heel stable, The Circle Of Blood. Signature Moves: Eagle Shock (Krusher Drop) Title History: World Level Universal [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/EmeraldAngel.jpg[/img] [b]Emerald Angel[/b][/center] Profile: Emerald Angel (Hidetoshi Ishibashi) is the younger brother of Koki Ishibashi, and since his debut in 2004 has gone on to become one of the most talked about young stars in Japan. An incredible high flier, what sets him apart from his peers is not only his ability (Angel was the first man to perform a 720 degree splash off the top rope), but also his graceful way of working. WLW, realizing how special his talent is, have made him the face of the company, cemented by a world title win in 2006. Signature Moves: Angel Fury (720), Angel Spike (Leaping DDT), Angel Grace Moonsault, Angel Snap (Arabian Press) Title History: World Level Show Stealer, World Level Universal [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/TheGreatHisato.jpg[/img] [b]The Great Hisato[/b][/center] Profile: The Great Hisato is a very talented high flier, who unfortunately has become just as well known for his massive ego as for his incredible performances. Originally he was part of the BHOTWG Junior division, having broken through the youth ranks of the promotion, and even held the prestigious Burning Junior title for a while. His poor attitude saw him eventually get fired though, and he has been left to try and pick up the pieces of his career with World Level Wrestling instead. Signature Moves: Mystic Dragon Wave (Roll-Through Tiger Suplex), Title History: World Level Universal, 3 Time World Level Tag Team, Burning Junior Champion [center][SIZE="4"]Upper Midcard[/SIZE] [img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/HellMonkey.jpg[/img] [b]Hell Monkey[/b][/center] Profile: Hell Monkey is a superb fighter from New York City, who is famous for his visually awesome entrance mask (he removes it when he actually wrestles). He has a very modern style to his ring work, blending incredibly stiff strikes with the technical skills and aerial ability of a Super Junior wrestler. He first came to people's attention in USPW, but his style didn't really fit with the promotion, and soon he was off to Japan, where he has become one of World Level Wrestling's favourite foreigners. Signature Moves: Tumbling Monkey (Sky Twister Press), Hell Fire Kick (Backflip to Rolling Scissor Kick), Title History: World Level Show Stealer, World Level Streetfighting (Current) [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/KojiKojima.jpg[/img] [b]Koji Kojima[/b][/center] Profile: "The Silent Assassin" Koji Kojima is a solid Super Junior style wrestler, who is best known as being the owner of World Level Wrestling. Prior to setting up WLW in 2000, he had worked for just about every other promotion in the country, but had never really gotten anywhere above midcard level. This is probably because while talented, he is not as spectacular or flashy as many other junior wrestlers, instead having consistency and a strong work ethic as his selling points. Signature Moves: Koji Crossface Title History: 2 Time World Level Universal, 2 Time World Level Tag Team [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/KokiIshibashi.jpg[/img] [b]KOKI Ishibashi[/b][/center] Profile: KOKI Ishibashi is a Japanese wrestler, noted for eschewing the usual flashy aerial attacks of other wrestlers his size, instead using fine wrestling as the base for his attacks. A friend of Koji Kojima for many years - they were trained in the same dojo - he has found his niche in wrestling working for his friend's WLW promotion, where he is one of the company's main heels. One thing that he is particularly famous for is his ever-increasing collection of colorful masks. Signature Moves: Koki Revolution (Spinning Fisherman's Suplex) Title History: 2 Time World Level Revolution, World Level Tap Out, 4 Time World Level Tag Team [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/TheIncredibleKoyama.jpg[/img] [b]The Incredible KOYAMA[/b][/center] Profile: The Incredible KOYAMA (Masutaro Koyama) is a daredevil high flier, and one of World Level Wrestling's fastest rising stars. A master of using the ropes to springboard himself into a variety of attacking moves, his short time in WLW has already seen him win the Show Stealer title on two occasions, and more famously, become a record-setting four time world tag team champion alongside his regular partner and fellow Circle Of Blood member, Koki Ishibashi. Signature Moves: Incredible Death Spike (Destroyer Piledriver), Koyama Grip (Death Lock STF) Title History: 2-Time World Level Show Stealer (Current), 4 Time World Level Tag Team (Current) [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/SilverShark.jpg[/img] [b]Silver Shark[/b][/center] Profile: Silver Shark is a good masked high flier, who is extremely well travelled, having had runs with companies in just about every corner of the globe. Currently he is best known for his Japanese work, as he is a regular with both BHOTWG and WLW, and is doing well in both companies. Prior to that, he was best known for a short run as part of the TCW (then called HGC) cruiserweight division, where he was champion at one point, and for his independent work on the East Coast. Signature Moves: Jaws Of Life (Cross-Armed Surfboard), Fin Attack Title History: RPW World, TCW Cruiserweight [center][SIZE="4"]Midcard[/SIZE] [img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/DeanoMachino.jpg[/img] [b]Dean Daniels[/b][/center] Profile: Dean "The Machine" Daniels is a solid all-round competitor, who doesn't really have any weak elements to his game, but equally doesn't excel at anything enough to ever be a true superstar. He spent his early career on the US independent circuit, but has achieved his most fame in Japan, where he is a regular with the WLW promotion. He used to work under the name Deano Machino, but he dropped that moniker in the summer of 2006, attempting to promote a more serious image of himself. Signature Moves: Cradle Piledriver Title History: World Level Tag Team [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/HaruKurofuji.jpg[/img] [b]Haru Kurofuji[/b][/center] Profile: Haru Kurofuji is a solidly consistent high flier, who has become one of the major power players in World Level Wrestling, both in front of and behind the cameras. He has been with the promotion since the start, and is both a former Universal champion and two time tag team title holder (alongside his friend and regular partner Koji Kojima). He is famed for his suicidal top rope diving headbutt, which he has perfected to be incredibly graceful, and his deadly Kurofuji Crab finisher. Signature Moves: Kurofuji Crab (Single Leg Boston Crab) Title History: World Level Universal, 2 Time World Level Tag Team [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/KazumaNarato.jpg[/img] [b]Kazuma Narato[/b][/center] Profile: Kazuma Narato is a young Japanese worker who moved to the US very early in his career to be part of the cruiserweight division that TCW were setting up. He became Fumihiro Ota's "sidekick" in storylines, and also won the cruiserweight tag team titles on three occasions alongside him. When the division was cut in 2005, so was Narato, and he returned home to Japan. He was swiftly picked up by World Level Wrestling, and he has gone on to become one of their most consistent performers. Signature Moves: Narato Sunner Title History: World Level Streetfighting, 3 Time TCW Cruiserweight [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/BloodRaven.jpg[/img] [b]Ketsueki Karasu[/b][/center] Profile: Ketsueki Karasu is a fine young worker, whose ability to blend traditional Mexican Lucha Libre with the Japanese Super Junior style has resulted in him being seen as a future star both countries. He usually works under the name Blood Raven while outside of Japan, Ketsueki Karasu being the Eastern translation. His gothic, nightmarish character is very unique, and seems very popular, especially with male teenage fans. Signature Moves: Darkness DDT (Evenflow DDT) Title History: World Level Streetfighting, Campeon de Monor SOTBPW (Current) [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/MagnumKobe.jpg[/img] [b]Magnum KOBE[/b][/center] Profile: Magnum KOBE is one of World Level Wrestling's most prized assets, and one of their big hopes for the future. KOBE debuted for them in 2005, and quickly showed the talent that had made him such a hot prospect. He got a huge boost when he was added as the junior member to The Circle Of Blood, a stable which also included some of the biggest names in WLW, but it was when he started displayed a new arrogant personality that he really started to shine, as his heel act is simply brilliant. Signature Moves: Magnum Deathlock (Indian Deathlock), KOBE Bomb (Top Rope Power Bomb) Title History: World Level Show Stealer, World Level Tap Out [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/ToyokuniHardcore.jpg[/img] [b]Toyokuni Hardcore[/b][/center] Profile: Toyokuni Hardcore used to strictly be a comedy worker, impersonating US worker Sam Strong ("Toyokuni Strong") on the independent scene. He reinvented himself as a serious brawler in early 2006 - perhaps forced into the change due to Sam Strong's retirement - complete with a sleek new look and updated moves. The new fire that he displayed when wrestling was clearly impressive, as within months he had been hired by World Level Wrestling. Signature Moves: Toyokuni Drill (Samoan Driver) Title History: None [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/UKDragon.jpg[/img] [b]UK Dragon[/b][/center] Profile: Steven "UK Dragon" Ambrose is a vastly experienced all-rounder, who has worked all around the globe since his professional debut at the age of 16 in 1991. Over time he has developed a reputation for versatility and reliability, and that has made him a highly in-demand worker. While he is probably best known for his run with World Level Wrestling in Japan, he has also had great runs with UCR in Europe (where he is a former champion) and ROF in the UK, amongst others. Signature Moves: Dragon Drop (Inverted Sleeper into Diving DDT), Dragon Sleeper Title History: World Level Tap Out (Current), UCR World Combat, Ring Of Fire Championship (Current), Ring Of Fire #1 Contender [center][SIZE="4"]The Undercard[/SIZE] [img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/AmericanElemental.jpg[/img] [b]Americana[/b][/center] Profile: American Elemental is one of the new breed of North American workers who have been heavily influenced by the Japanese Super Junior style; his character and costume are an obvious homage to the original Elemental. After six years of hard work on the independent scene, he finally got a break in 2006, when he joined World Level Wrestling, working under the name Americana. A fantastic worker, there has even been rumblings that he may be in the frame to play Elemental III for BHOTWG. Signature Moves: Inferno Splash (450) Title History: Coastal Zone Championship, World Level Show Stealer [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/BeetleKimura.jpg[/img] [b]Beetle Kimura[/b][/center] Profile: Yosuke "Beetle" Kimura is a speedy rookie looking to make an impact in the sport of pro wrestling. He was trained by The Great Hisato, and uses several of his mentor's trademark spots during matches as a tribute. With Hisato's influence clear, he started working regularly for World Level Wrestling in 2004, and while he has not really broken out of the opening match scene of the promotion since, he has shown signs that he is improving into a fairly decent worker. Signature Moves: Ocean Crush (Corkscrew Legdrop) Title History: None [center][IMG]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/wrestlers%202007%20A%20-%20N/CyberFighter3000.jpg[/IMG] [b]Cyber Fighter 3000[/b][/center] Profile: A product of the World Level Wrestling youth system, Hachigoro Maeda made his debut for the company at the tail end of 2005. Hoping to hide his inexperience and weak skills, he was given the outlandish gimmick of Cyber Fighter 3000, "The New Generation Of Wrestler", complete with futuristic entrance and costume. 2006 saw him makes some strides in terms of improving his in-ring performances, but as 2007 begins he is still working opening matches and getting soundly beaten. Signature Moves: Cyber Hack (Moonsault) Title History: None [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/InsaneMachine.jpg[/img] [b]Insane Machine[/b][/center] Profile: Insane Machine is a highly rated cruiserweight, best known for his work with CZCW. Prior to joining them in 2002, he worked without a mask under his real name, Chris Perkins, but had little success. Once he donned the outrageously cool mask though, his career seemed to take off, and he soon became quite popular. In 2004, his successes with CZCW led him to be invited over to WLW in Japan, and he has slowly built up quite a fan base over there, making him an international wrestling star. Signature Moves: Termination Kick (Superkick to the Back of the Neck), Insanity Tsunami (450) Title History: World Level Streetfighting, World Level Tag Team, Coastal Zone Championship, 2 Time Coastal Zone Tag Team, and Coastal Zone Xtreme (Current) [center][IMG]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/wrestlers%202007%20A%20-%20N/wrestlers%202007%20O%20-%20Z/PandaMask.jpg[/IMG] [b]Panda Mask II[/b][/center] Profile: The original Panda Mask was played by the wrestler now known as Harrison Hash; this is the second incarnation of the character, and is played by Joseph Jerome, a rookie wrestler from Wyoming. Making his pro debut in 2006, Jerome found it difficult to get established in the business, and so, in order to boost his popularity, decided to try purchasing the rights to the Panda Mask character from Hash. It clearly worked, as soon he was signed by WLW in Japan for a try-out. Signature Moves: Pandamonium (Shooting Star Press) Title History: None [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/TheTic.jpg[/img] [b]The Tic[/b][/center] Profile: Alexander "The Tic" McCallum is an American worker who made his pro debut in 2004. Having gained the nickname "The Tic" during his training, as a reference to his extremely small physical size, he decided to try and turn that to his advantage, and utilized a crazy mask and costume to create a goofy super hero style character. While it did little for his career in his homeland, it was interesting enough to attract the attention of WLW in Japan, and he has been working for them ever since. Signature Moves: Parasite Paralysis (Ankle Lock), Tic Leap (Frog Splash) Title History: None [center][img]http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j231/bsumystic/YukiHorigoshi.jpg[/img] [b]Yuki Horigoshi[/b][/center] Profile: "100% Machine" Yuki Horigoshi is a rookie worker from Japan, who came through the World Level Wrestling youth ranks to make his pro debut in 2004. He is one of the promotion's most promising talents, which is mainly down to his natural athletic ability, in particular his unbelievable cardio conditioning with which he could probably wrestle all night if he wanted. He won his first ever professional title, the WLW Street Fighting championship, in August 2006.
