Speaking of Blue Velvet, could there be a possibility that Koichiro Togashi, Raita Matsuoka, & Jiro Kazama used to be part of the stable till they left for JTW, turning face in the process, since they're a part of Seigi-Gun now? (Since their wrestling outfits look similar, even down to the color choice)
Also, how about Eikichi Kurusu & Soji Uzaki being former tag-team partners before Ekichi joined NCPW? Since both have pink in their attires, not to mention their nicknames are the "Lightning Bolt" and "Thunderbolt" respectively?

Not sure about Koichiro Togashi, but I like the idea of Raita Matsuoka and Jiro Kazama being former members of MPW. Perhaps them and Tomonori Mifune were formerly a stable (like a Kami stable, since all three have God in their nickname), until Tomonori betrayed them and joined Blue Velvet. I like it :) Oh, good catch with the nicknames of Eikichi Kurusu and Soji Uzaki. It would give Eikichi Kurusu some backstory that I wasn't able to figure out earlier. I approve :) |

Also, has anyone uploaded Noriuki Hayashi and Yoshio Kakizaki? I don't think anyone uploaded the two Fighting Road Exclusive wrestlers yet from Chapter 1: The Audition.

On a few unrelated notes:
Concerning Koichiro, I'm thinking that his nickname, "Brillo Pad", is referring to his Afro, personally saying.
Ryuji Katagiri and Yoshi Onodera have been rumored to be related, due to suspiciously looking like each other in terms of face, beard and hairstyle. Even their style of wrestling is very similar too. Of course, like with John Smith and Mr. Judgement, the two have denied the connections.
The wrestler that the dev probably used to demonstrate the new moves that came in the 2/26 Free Update is "Persona Estupida" Miguel Luis along with Noriuki Hayashi.

So, concerning the two examinee wrestlers from Fighting Road, has anyone got any ideas for them?

What I thought of so far: Noriuki Hayashi - Street Fighter turned Wrestler - Has a notable scar on his cheek from those days - Likes headbutting a lot Yoshio Kakizaki - Wanted to be a Shoot-Style Wrestler, but was born a bit too late for that - Now works a more Technical Style not unlike what Blade Saeba was doing during his training days - May or may not instigate a few fights outside of the ring |

Just picture this: After their failed tryout, Hayashi and Kakizaki both became very angry and bitter. With no federation to call home, and no real training, they continuously instigate fights at wrestling shows against the talent working there. It became so bad that they are banned from pretty much every japanese promotion. But somehow, someway, they always find a way to get involved. They became so notorious, infact, that they developed somewhat of a cult following on social media, sometimes dropping hints on which wrestling event might be their next target. |

That sounds like the two became the equivalent of "Dojo Destroyers" but for Wrestling Promotions. I'd imagine that their popularity is at the point where beating them in your promotion is a rite of passage. (Also, their team could be called "The Exam", due to some talent thinking that they only instigate fights as a "Test" of some sorts to see if they're good enough.)

Also on a meta perspective, I don't think discolored parts on certain wrestlers (Ex: Ted Axel having a Skin 3 Head and Hands with a modified Skin 2 Body.) are an error. Rather, they're intentionally put like that. After all, it does happen sometimes with people having lighter skin tones on their bodies sometimes. Also tanning too.

Never really noticed it that some body parts are discolored :P I will take a closer look next time. Another question I have regarding the player character from the Fighting Road mode, Gregory Montgomery (or, in the japanese version, Yuji Yamashita): what is everyones prefered Story for him? Is it the the Heavyweight path, or the Juniorweight path? I personally prefer the Juniorweight story, since the player character got much more character compared to the Heavyweight path. You could even give him a new nickname based on this: "Sugoi" Yuji Yamashita (I also prefer the Japanese name, since he is supposed to be Japanese). |

I think for the most part that mismatched parts are Spike being sloppy with edit making, there's some real wrestlers that have had that issue as well. I'm almost certain I came across that problem with some of the Stardom wrestlers when I went to remake and update them.

I prefer the Junior path as well, partly since i don't really think appearance-wise Yuji has the body-type for a Heavyweight along with what you just described. |

And now, some headcanon for a "Tag Team" in Fire Promoter.
The Pink Bolts:
Members: Eikichi Kurusu & Soji Uzaki
- The two act as a mischievous duo, getting into hijinks with the various heels of JTW (Like that one incident of spray painting the back of Tsuyoshi Inukai's suit with their tag team logo)
- High-flying extraordinares, they have a running gag of back-to-back jumping spots (EX: They take turns doing flying attacks on a downed opponent, which is default Spike logic there, lol)
- Walks out to music by The Blue Hearts, by far the song they're mostly associated with (and one they commonly walk out to) is 人にやさしく (Be Nice/Kind to Others)
- The team split however, after Eikichi jumped ship to NCPW and Soji Uzaki staying loyal to JTW. The two are still on good terms with each other.
