World Of Sport - The Unmasking Of Kendo Nagasaki

[deaconkris]

One of my favourite gimmicks when i was a kid he was so cool to watch and really mysterious in a time before i knew wrestling was all fake

[dirkbogarde44]

Looks like a cross between Hennry Rollins and David Carradine's Kung Fu !

[bettydaw1970]

@dirkbogarde44 he does..is he wearing colored contact lenses?

[retrojaxed2]

i remember that,seeing those red eyes scared the crap out of me....

[doyougototowndriver]

He has been at a secret retreat! down his local boozer getting pished more like

[viperxeon]

Did they soak his mask in petrol or something? It went up like a bloody rocket!

[barneyboscoe]

They should have thrown the old puff on the fire,and Kendo after him,total pantomime

[cottonkid46]

looks like a thin version of marty jones

[madman23570]

Read "the wrestling" by Simon Garfield and you'll see he was a master at martial arts ! Lol or just more hype..

[mighty690am]

[antsman88]

[DAZZYVANDAM]

[jahovia11]

Ring looks small for a wrestling match....

[Gwahamir]

This is the most ridiculous video I've ever seen, he is making fun of the martial art kendo, fuck that shit.

[Sargethepyromaniac]

STOKE PRIDE

[Narutowarrior022]

The Demon of hell....

[mayhem492]

THEY LOOK A BIT LIKE MEMBERS OF THE TEMPLE OV PSYCHICK YOUTH.

[RICHARDTOMLEY10WHARF]

i always thought his name was kendo hiroshima

[1851davidb]

I always thought he was called was Ken Bomb

[RICHARDTOMLEY10WHARF]

@1851davidb you could be right, mr kenneth bomb ,,i dont think he was a muslim ,but a nice chap just the same

[HORNSWAGGLE123]

who did he lose against??

[ylwapple45]

Am I the only one who thinks Kendo's face sorta resembles a bald Henry Rollins with huge pupils?????

* btw...the 2 guys doing faceplants was hilarious!

[hillybegs]

Cor! he's gorgeous!!!

[sockey77]

those eyes where very clever!!! legend

[raquasa255]

@sockey77 do u know if it was special effects or not?

[xxxKINGFROGxxx]

civic hall wolverhampton!

[Chuloloc]

Classic.

[Supermercado]

Now there's a gimmick that deserves a comeback.

Complete with slightly poncy British manager.

[triplefi66]

Search for the clip of Kendo fighting Jimmy (pink leotard) Greaves . One of the most surreal moments on YouTube.

[MickeyLove01]

it's Peter Thornley

[funkydafunker]

Reminds me of Joe Calzaghi.

Kendo should come on Strictly Come Wrestling/Boxing/Dancing

[Jaimru]

Waoh kendo's whole eyes are black.

[luke1969]

Please serch ibdm site google ibdm and once on there serch Kendo Nagasaki and then go onto message board for Kendo.

[kirkwanglers32]

Nagasaki fell on me at Croyon fairfeild halls.

I shook his hand in Cambs Kings lynn,Norfolk.

My ex wife took the pictures.

[xxxKINGFROGxxx]

@kirkwanglers32 ex-wife haha!

[WELLBRAN]

Probably a Mancunian lol

[SatansMother]

Is there a better place to be unmasked than Wolverhampton?

[Diannesky]

Yes Liverpool Stadium I used to go and watch him evry time he was on there I used to go every Fri

[DirtyDog3]

Yeah...

Bilston! :)

[007CoDMaster]

[detamc]

LOLZ! myn too

[fab4ever1]

[RMGLUCK]

Contacts

[docbreaknik]

dennis weaver?

[icemither]

I often wondered what Michael Bisping got up to befote he joined the UFC !!

[Wumzum]

why are his eyes like that?

[bluesugarmonkeys]

He's from the planet Neptune.

[Taramriel]

Comical

[specialbeamcannon1]

demon

[slitheen]

Handsome enough bloke.....wonder why he kept a mask on all that time.

[AlexDCl]

Misteriousness?

[slitheen]

Or maybe even Mysteriousness?

[DavidFullam]

Thank God for You Tube and the fans from the UK who put stuff like this up, so we Americans and others can see what British Wrestling was all about. Kendo is a truly amazing character both in and out of the ring.

[kyawzayya888]

OHH my god!!!scary...his eyes

[lockenjr]

he wreslted in portland briefly in late 84-early 85. Saw billy jack haynes put him down with the full nelson on portland wreslting.

[dsriggs]

That was another Kendo Nagasaki. This one never wrestled out of England.

[baldandold]

real name Peter Thornley, not very oriental though.....

[theheat21a]

gay though the guy with the blonde hair in this video is now a woman and his maneger and husband/wife

[looniechewnz]

What guy with blonde hair?

[AlexDCl]

I think they're two different people, the man in the video (George Gillette) died in '1991, Atlantis Chronus Goth is his most recent manager, I wasn't aware they had a relationship.

[kirkwanglers32]

Ive met Kendo with his maask on.

[fodigie]

i was an avid wrestling fan in the 70's and 80's but i don't remember seeing this!

[coffeeshopping]

All along it was Kostya Tszyu. Geez!

[sapotico13]

eeeh?

[Rhyno095]

i ssaw kendo last saturday(20th sept08)fihting in a ladder mtch for his sword at victoria hall it was great its was his last return to wrestling

[DavidColumbia]

I love the shouting from the crowd "Just get on with it!"

[justneil]

A special moment captured for eternity.

Thank you.

[alexreid]

There could be no finer venue for this historic occasion than . . . Wolverhampton

[Suriel1981]

@alexreid Wolverhampton has sacred powers to prevent a newly-unmasked wrestler's career from tanking. If Psicosis and Juventud Guerrera had unmasked in Wolverhampton they would be multi-time world champs by now.

Rey Misterio Jr (I refuse to use WWE spelling) actually DID unmask in Wolverhampton. WCW used Ted Turner's money to change the decor of the whole city to make it look like America. Then they changed it back to looking like a shithole.

[sayanroy36]

@Suriel1981

typical smark boneheadedness & seems like got plenty of support for it.

what did wcw do for 'misterio jr'?yea,they utterly fucked him over.

not a single real push.unmasking him despite the mask making money & took him down with the ship

even his best matches are not the ones against malenko,eddie etc in wcw, but in wwe during the smackdown six era

wwe gave him every title (last triple crown)including 2 world titles & a royal rumble

yeah,it very reasonable to not use wwe spelling

[Suriel1981]

Oh, shut the fuck up. Are you too retarded to realise Alexreid and myself were making jokes about Wolverhampton? What has WWE's treatment of Rey Jr got to do with that? Fucking moron.

[sayanroy36]

@Suriel1981

No you shut the

i wasnt criticizing your jokes about Wolverhampton(dont give a fuck) .if you actually read what i wrote,you wouldn't appear this stupid.

i was pointing out what an obnoxious smark you appear when you said "i refuse to use his wwe name".

why? cause wcw fucked him over? & wwe gave him every title possible?

guess what, being a real fan doesnt mean MEANINGLESS hate on wwe all the time

[Suriel1981]

@sayanroy36 If you actually took your own advice and read what people write, instead of just looking for excuses to be a smug uber-smark then you wouldn't come across as such a dickhead.

[sayanroy36]

@Suriel1981

oh really? show me what i missed out kiddo?i dare you. & also whats the justification of "refusing to use rey's wwe name". why?

there you go, look before accusing dumbass

[hounddogjonny]

An awesome and important event in wrestling history. We are not worthy.

[swinfen]
