Alexander Otsuka (born Takashi Otsuka in 1971) is a Japanese Professional Wrestler and Mixed Martial Arts fighter. An amateur wrestling fan, he debuted in Yoshiaki Fujiwara's Pro Wrestling Fujiwara Gumi, but had his true start shortly after in the promotion Battlarts, created after the folding of Gumi. Though firstly a jobber, Otsuka eventually became one of the big stars of the company and was famous for his violent feuds with Yuki Ishikawa and Daisuke Ikeda. Along his work in lucharesu realm Michinoku Pro Wrestling, Otsuka moved to Pro Wrestling ZERO1 when Battlarts fell, but around the time he got better known for his MMA career in PRIDE Fighting Championship. He would turn into a cult hero for his guts and toughness, facing the best opponents of the time and coming unfinished from fights which a common wrestler would be lucky to make it out of alive. Upon returning to pro wrestling, Otsuka showed his funnier side by adopting the comedy gimmick of Otoko Sakari, a bisexual wrestler in a thong just as weird as it sounds. Under both that and his usual persona, he freelanced between all kinds of wrestling promotions over the years, especially Satoru Sayama's Real Japan Pro Wrestling and Tatsumi Fujinami's Dradition. He doesn't seem to have the retirement on his horizon yet. | |

Alternate Company Equivalent | |
| Alexander Otsuka (Wrestling) / int_200c8312 | comment |
Alternate Company Equivalent: He was to Japanese media more or less what Tank Abbott was to Ultimate Fighting Championship fans: a laid back bruiser with an amateur wrestling background who was barely a cagefighter in the true sense of the word, but who gave some great performances by sheer chutzpah and relentless toughness. Wrestling magazines used to considered him as a sort of indy version of Keiji Mutoh due to his bald head and comparative popularity. He is also arguably one to fellow PWFG alumni and Pancrase fighter Kazuo Takahashi. Both were former amateur wrestlers with less talent in fighting than their peers, yet who mostly survived their MMA careers by being insanely tough. Both also have victories against notable Brazilian fighters, Wallid Ismail for Takahashi and Marco Ruas for Otsuka. | |

The All-Solving Hammer: In one of his apparitions in ZERO-ONE, he came to the ring and challenged Shinjiro Otani to a match. As Otani completely ignored him, Otsuka's solution to draw his attention was taking a fire extinguisher and spraying him in the face. Now he did get his attention. | |

Let's Get Dangerous! | |
| Alexander Otsuka (Wrestling) / int_562abd51 | comment |
Let's Get Dangerous!: Although he was never a top grappler, he got the MMA world open-mouthed with his victory by double armbar against the heavier and better trained Mike Bourke. Not only because nobody in the U.S. would've believed that Otsuka knew how to grapple, but also because the technique was a worked pro wrestling hold (used as a finisher by Otsuka's colleague, Carl Greco, whom had taught it to him) and would've been incredibly difficult to pull off by any competent grappler. | |

Defeat by Modesty: Not his modesty, but rather the crowd's one. Otoko Sakari is often defeated when his opponent compromises his attire and the ring crew throws the towel for him to cover his privates, a situation called morodashi. | |

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass | |
| Alexander Otsuka (Wrestling) / int_a9de87d2 | comment |
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Even after his victory over Marco Ruas was exposed as a fluke, Otsuka still showed himself to be a heck of a ring survivor, who could give a tough night to almost everybody and didn't even bother to stop working pro wrestling matches between fight and fight. He also shocked the world by tapping out an opponent with a very low percentage submission hold in a fight taken in short notice. | |

Ass Kicks You | |
| Alexander Otsuka (Wrestling) / int_b797948e | comment |
Ass Kicks You: Sakari uses plenty of ass-based offense, including hip attacks, sitting on his opponent's face (Tsubo Genjin's old Bamiyan Stamp) and a corner headscissors move that shoves his opponent's face into Otoko's butt. | |

| Alexander Otsuka (Wrestling) / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Fan Disservice: If wrestling around in a thong is not enough, Otoko Sakari once feuded with Kanjyuro Matsuyama in a cabellera contra cabellera series of matches; as Otsuka was already bald, he bet his pubic hair. Even worse, he lost, which means the crowd got to witness the ceremony. | |

Charles Atlas Superpower: He often deadlifts his suplexes, meaning that he lifts his opponent without the latter's help by jumping up. Otsuka has legit wrestling training after all. | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Thoroughly. As noted in his interviews and public persona, not to talk about the Otoko Sakari character, Otsuka is mainly known for his eccentric charisma, personal craziness and will to endure horrifying damage. | |

Hard Head: Freakishly hard. His ability to absorb punishment was sometimes scary to watch, and his MMA record shows it, as almost every time he has been finished by TKO it has been mostly on petty cuts instead of straight knockouts. | |
