Michinoku Pro Wrestling (MPW or M-Pro) is a Japanese independent Professional Wrestling promotion founded in 1993 by The Great Sasuke. Bred as the offshoot of Universal Lucha Libre, Michinoku Pro was the second lucharesu promotion created in Japan and the biggest one until 1999, when Osaka Pro split off from it and Toryumon Japan came from Mexico.The promotion showcases a diverse mix of wrestling styles, though its main influences emanate from lucha libre, full of high-flying wrestling and appropiate masked aesthetic. Michinoku Pro is also famously lighthearted in tone, which allows for comedy wrestling, costumed shenanigans with folkloric Japanese characters and weird gimmicks, and a very national sense of humor and wackiness. In more recent times, it has gone to feature also garbage wrestling and very stiff action with a bit of shoot-style, and even joshi (female) wrestling. It has maintained contact with many other promotions, like Toryumon, Battlarts and almost every Japanese indy under the sun.M-Pro is pretty geographically based: it was the first relevant Japanese federation to base itself away from Tokyo, and as such it mostly tours around Northern Japan in small local shows, only visiting the big arenas for special events, all of which gives it a close-knit feeling. Despite this factor and its small size, Michinoku Pro has outlived many and more famous wrestling promotions, and it is nowadays one of the historical marks of the puroresu scene.
