Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Kensuke Sasaki (born August 4, 1966) is a retired Japanese Professional Wrestler, famous for his work in New Japan Pro-Wrestling and other promotions. Trained by Riki Choshu, Sasaki followed him to NJPW and became one of the hottest prospects of his time, and after a long excursion abroad he formed a proverbial tag team with Hiroshi Hase. It ended prematurely when Hase left due to a dojo incident, and Sasaki ended up being more known for being part of The Road Warriors in Japan. After some matches in World Championship Wrestling and a solid reign as IWGP Champion, Sasaki was already a respected member of the business, and although he had a part on his mentor Choshu's Fighting World of Japan debacle, it only allowed him to play a traitorous heel upon his return to New Japan. However, some animosity with Choshu moved him to leave, this time for good, and Sasaki landed on All Japan Pro Wrestling, which became his new home. He then diversified into his own company, Kensuke Office (later known as Diamond Ring), and Pro Wrestling NOAH. Thus, Sasaki is one on the only two men (along with Yoshihiro Takayama) to win the major heavyweight titles of the three top promotions in Japan, NJPW, AJPW and NOAH.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

The Big Guy: In Dragon Gate, he was this to the Florida Bros. Really, he dwarfed just about everyone on the roster. | |

Action Dad / Papa Wolf: Supposedly, he actually adopted Katsuhiko Nakajima, who debuted in the business in his teens, to act as this both in physical presence and through the Kensuke Office organization, which is essentially a "brand name" for their family (He and his wife, female legend Akira Hokuto also have two biological sons) and affiliated wrestlers. | |
