Tiger Mask, Great Sasuke and Mil Mascaras vs Dynamite Kid, Dos Caras and Kuniaki Kobayashi - 1/3

Part 1/3 (entrances, introductions and first part of the match)

The Original Tiger Mask, The Great Sasuke and Mil Mascaras vs Dynamite Kid, Dos Caras and Kuniaki Kobayashi on 10/16/96 from Michinoku Pro's "These Days" event from the Sumo Hall in Tokyo.

This is Dynamite Kid's last match. After many years of drug abuse and crippling injuries, he couldn't go on after this match and probably shouldn't have wrestled here.

However, this is a random yet fun 6-man tag from the glory days of Michinoku Pro, featuring Lucha Libre, Puroresu and British-style wrestling.

Oh yeah, most definitely fake. So fake that one of the men in this match, The Dynamite Kid, one of the greatest wrestlers off all time, was confined to a real wheel chair not long after this match and hasn't taken a real step since. Solely due to the real punishment "fake" wrestling inflicts on the human body. Yeah, totally fake,

I saw this match not long after it took place. A part of me wishes I hadn't. This is not how I want to remember Dynamite.

the kid looks a shadow of his former self in this, he was the best in his time, but years of punishment has taken its toll, thanks for posting

Two British wrestling greats, Dynamite and Johnny Saint, both wrestled their retirement matches on this show. Despite being considerably younger, Dynamite was in much worse shape out of the two of them, of course down to his harder hitting style and taking more abuse.

@kristinandjon wrestling is fake. abusing drugs and alcohol is real. lol

The kid looks a sad sight approaching that ring , a shadow of his heyday self. Looks like drugs had gotten to him as he looks like a junkie.

@CLewey44 benoit has said that dynamite kid was the reason he became a wrestler.

[KleioTerrible]

Kiddo, Kiddo, Kiddo, Kiddo, Kiddo.

[CLewey44]

Wow, DK deflated alot. He reminded me a lot of Benoit back in the hey-day.

@Fega21 It's the unified J-Crown, and it's 8 championships unified into one title.
