Satoshi Kojima (b. 1970) is a Japanese professional wrestler from Koto, Tokyo. Trained by Animal Hamaguchi in 1990, Kojima started his career in New Japan Pro-Wrestling dojo in February of 1991, debuting in his first match September of that year. In 1994, he won the Young Lions Cup without losing any of his matches. In 1998, Kojima joined nWo Japan where he first formed the long time Tag Team Tencozy (or TenKoji) with Hiroyoshi Tenzan.In 2002, Kojima jumped ship to All Japan Pro Wrestling where he became Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion twice. During his second reign, he beat Tenzan for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship in a cross-pormotional event with New Japan. Kojima became the first wrestler to hold both titles similtaniously. In 2008, Tenzan and Kojima became the first tag team to ever win G1 Tag League and World's Strongest Tag Determination League in the same year.In 2010 he returned to New Japan and would go on to win the G1 Climax, once again win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship and the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.Kojima's other accolades includes several tag team title reigns. These include winning the IWGP Tag Team Championship 6 times (five times with Tenzan, once with Manabu Nanakishi), the All Japan's World Tag Team Championship 3 times (once each with Taiy� Kea, Kaz Hayashi and TARU), the All Asia Tag Team Championship once (with Shiryu) and the NWA World Tag Team Championship once (with Tenzan).He's also pretty fond of bread.

comment
Always Someone Better: MVP had a surprisingly effective run in New Japan, beating several of the best wrestlers in the world, including a few Kojima himself had some trouble with, often on Kojima's behalf, and becoming the inaugural IWGP Intercontinental Champion. However, whenever MVP and Kojima went at it themselves, Satoshi always won, and Tencozy also beat Black Dynamite.

Opposing Combat Philosophies: He looked down Osamu Nishimura's "Muga" (a pro wrestling style based in old fashioned Catch Wrestling combined with a philosophy of selflessness or some other religious mumbo jumbo) because he thought that pro wrestling has no right or wrong way, and because he liked the AJPW "lariat puroresu" better than any catch wrestling system.

Cloudcuckoolander: His promos are sometimes a bit bizarre or even childish. He threatened Shinya Hashimoto by doing a draw of him crying and simulating he gave a lariat to the paper, and later showed that his training methods for the match were taking naps in a park. Extends to his social media presence, where he frequently expresses a fondness for bread.

Theatrics of Pain: He sells offense pretty well but long term limb damage isn't really something he's prone to show much of, not that this discourages many from trying to take away his lariats through arm work but it probably won't work unless they also have an arm based finishing move.

Department of Redundancy Department: After watching Jay Lethal defend the ROH World Title against Michael Elgin at Wrestle Kingdom, Kojima decided he wanted to win the belt and tour the United States with it to prove "Puroresu wrestlers are stronger than you!" He even gave his spot in the G-1 Climax to Hiroyoshi Tenzan for it.
