<span>http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee489/asaemon/TEW/TCW/ErnestYoungman.jpg</span></p><p>

<strong>Ernest Youngman</strong></p><p>

Age: 20</p><p>

From: America</p><p>

Size: Light Heavyweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"The Assassin Of The Squared Circle" Ernest Youngman is a hot prospect from Chicago. With a very thick, muscled torso, he resembles the sort of wrestler that was prominent during the 1960s and 70s, but his style is very modern, being based mainly around hard strikes and innovative bone-crunching moves. He is also particularly noted for having extremely strong mat wrestling skills. Youngman could become a very big name in the business.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Findlay O'Farraday</strong></p><p>

Age: 28</p><p>

From: America</p><p>

Size: Big Heavyweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Findlay O'Farraday is a big brawler from Cobb County, Georgia. The 300lb southerner made his pro debut in early 2006, and spent the next year and a half on the local independent scene working on his skills and developing a reputation for good, solid old-school ring work. Somewhere along the way a video of him in action ended up on a file-sharing web site, and a link to the video found its way onto Rip Chord's laptop. Once somebody had explained to Rip how to view the clip (which came shortly after the explanation about what the Internet was, which came shortly after the explanation of how to turn the computer on) and he'd taken a look, an invitation was sent out and O'Farraday was on his way to MAW. He has proved to be a big hit and had a hugely impressive almost two-year reign as MAW champion in 2010-2012.</em></p><p> </p><p>

From: Canada</p><p>

Size: Lightweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"Double J" Josh Jones is a young Canadian wrestler from Alberta. He has been working the independent scene since his pro debut in 2010 and is gradually building his skills.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Lion Genji</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Age: 23</p><p>

From: Japan</p><p>

Size: Middleweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Lion Genji is a 2008 graduate of the Tokyo Wrestling Dojo. An all-rounder who can both brawl and grapple, the future looks bright for the tough youngster. Since graduation he has been working the independent scene, gaining a reputation for being a solid, reliable performer with a big upside. Lion Genji has been seen training with PGHW legend Shuji Inukai on several occasions recently.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Mashashi Urogataya</strong></p><p>

Age: 25</p><p>

From: Japan</p><p>

Size: Light Heavyweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Mashashi Urogataya is a Japanese wrestler, a product of the Pride Glory Honor Wrestling dojo. The best word to describe him would be "solid"; he is never flashy, but at the same time he hardly wastes a single movement in the ring, he's always working towards some purpose. He is at his best up close, whether chain wrestling or working over a grounded opponent, but he's tough enough to exchange strikes too, if necessary. He is in great physical condition, and has excellent stamina.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Razan Okamoto</strong></p><p>

Age: 22</p><p>

From: Japan</p><p>

Size: Lightweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Invited to compete in the Grand Prix.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<em>A rising star in Japan, Razan Okamoto was discovered by Black Canvas Grappling and has been wrestling for them since their first show. A quick, athletic wrestler, Okamoto's big strength is actually on defence - his selling is extraordinary, he simply has the natural ability to suck people into caring about him. That, plus his cheeky charisma, makes him a natural babyface and one of the big prospects for BCG's future.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Totoya Munakata</strong></p><p>

Age: 26</p><p>

From: Japan</p><p>

Size: Lightweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Totoya Munakata is a mat-based wrestler with distinctive dyed red hair, which has given rise to the nickname "The Blood Fighter". Despite being physically quite small, tipping the scales at just 208lbs, he is a natural athlete with surprising strength. In college he was a fine amateur wrestler, getting to the final stages of many national championships, and that is what caused scouts to sit up and take notice. He is one for the future.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Tsurayuki Kamachi</strong></p><p>

Age: 27</p><p>

From: Japan</p><p>

Size: Middleweight</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Tsurayuki Kamachi is a good solid technical wrestler, who is only going to improve with age. He is a product of the PGHW youth system, but was released upon graduation so that he could go and gain experience with other promotions. He wound up in INSPIRE, and worked for them throughout their 2006 - 2009 run, before he went back to the independent scene.</em></p><p> </p><p>

PGHW Strength Contest Tour 2013

 

Newcomers

 

 

 

http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee489/asaemon/TEW/TCW/KinjiAkamatsu.jpg

 

Kinji Akamatsu

Age: 30

From: Japan

Size: Middleweight

 

Kinji Akamatsu is a fireplug of a fighter who always seems full of energy and never-say-die attitude. Over the years he has become well known for using a lot of knee-related moves in matches; knee lifts, face plants onto his knee, knee strikes, etc. This all sets up to his finisher, a running knee strike called The Eruption.

 

Titles:

SAISHO Ride The Tiger x1

SAISHO Destiny Tag Team x1

 

 

 

http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee489/asaemon/TEW/TCW/HaranobuKobayashi.jpg

 

Haranobu Kobayashi

Age: 20

From: Japan

Size: Heavyweight

 

Haranobu Kobayashi is a powerful Japanese wrestler, nicknamed "The Hammer". Tall and lean with a great look, perhaps his biggest asset is the fact that he looks like a champion-in-waiting; the fact that he is rapidly developing the in-ring skills to back that up means that he is seen as a very bright prospect for the future. He is noted for having an excellent finisher, the Kobayashi Plunge - a high vertical suplex, thrown out into a devastating Sit-Out Powerbomb pin.

 

Titles:

-

 

 

 

http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee489/asaemon/TEW/TCW/GonnohyoeKada.jpg

Gonnohyoe Kada

Age: 33

From: Japan

Size: Heavyweight

 

Gonnohyoe Kada is a big, intense Japanese heavyweight brawler. Primarily he is a striker, relying on punches and kicks quite a lot, but such is the pace and stiffness of his work that it is far from the boring snore-fest that you'd normally associate with workers of that style.

 

Titles:

SAISHO Destiny x1

SAISHO Destiny Tag Team x1

 

 

 

http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee489/asaemon/TEW/TCW/FujioNarahashi.jpg

Fujio Narahashi

Age: 23

From: Japan

Size: Middleweight

 

A short, stocky, powerful wrestler, Fujio Narahashi is very much an old-school style Japanese wrestler, with excellent cardio, solid fundamentals, and a lot of fighting spirit. In the ring, he is noted for his crisp open-hand chops and his thunderous Lariat finisher.

 

Titles:

SAISHO Ride The Tiger x1
