Hair:
There’s nobody in the world of professional wrestling quite like Minoru Suzuki. The 48-year-old is a throwback to the days of catch wrestling and legitimate submission holds, but at the same time, his toughness and athleticism allows him to mix it up with the best of the best today, including men 20 years his junior.
Currently working primarily for Pro Wrestling NOAH, Suzuki has just made a new career move – he (and Suzukigun underling El Desperado) will be coming to WhatCulture Pro Wrestling in October.

Young:
