History Characters / MichinokuProWrestling

* {{Bishonen}}

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Wore MMA footstraps or no footwear during his early gimmicks.

* TheChick: The only girl in the Yapper Men team and the entire Michinoku Pro.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Justified, as MPW is an all-male promotion.

* WeaponOfChoice: A blue plastic box.

!!!Wrestling/JinseiShinzaki

* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He may be an eccentric singer, but he is quite strong and knows his ropes through years of career, so he can definitely shock everybody whe he gets serious.

!!!Wrestling/UltimoDragon

!!!Rasse
* TheArtifact: His role in the promotion has remained unchanged for years. Even after turning heel and joining Kowloon, his luck was the same - a perennial mid-carder with no solid hopes of ascending the scale.
* JackOfAllStats: With a tilt to high-flying.
* [[BreakupBreakout The Jannetty]]: Was this to Yoshitsune and later to Kagetora. Only in his recent team with Kenbai he seems to be the major member.

!!!Kenbai
* CoolSword[=/=]KatanasAreJustBetter: Carries one to the ring.
* DanceBattler: His gimmick is a dancer from the Onikenbai ritual dance.
%%* FragileSpeedster: A rudimentary high-flyer with great speed.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Yoshitsune.

!!!Taro Nohashi
* LegacyCharacter: His old Shinjitsu Nohashi gimmick was this to Jinsei Shinzaki's one. Currently, he (probably unintentionally) resembles more Takashi Iizuka.

* MeaningfulName: ''Shinjitsu'' means ''Truth''.

* BigBeautifulMan
* CanonImmigrant: Came from Wrestling/DragonGate.

* RedBaron: "STOP DIET".
* ShoutOut: His name is taken from a character of ''Manga/SakigakeOtokojuku''.

!!!Rui Hyugaji
* ADayInTheLimelight: Almost nobody remembers he is is a former Tohoku Junior Heavyweight Champion.
* TheGenericGuy[=/=]FlatCharacter: His main characteristic is probably his lack of characteristics. He has no specific gimmick, no distinctive ring persona, and his moveset is oddly generic.
** Finally subverted in 2014, when he became TheFightingNarcissist and adopted a red suit with CoolShades.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Hyugaji or Hiugaji?

!!!Daichi Sasaki
* [[IKnowKarate I Know Amateur Wrestling]]: Even wears a wrestling singlet.

* DelinquentHair
* DemotedToExtra: Despite his status as a promising rookie and his succesful tenure as top heel in M-Pro, the dissolution of LSJ got him demoted to a mid-carder mook for the next young heel, Hayato Fujita. He stayed in the low midcard since then.
* JapaneseDelinquents: His current gimmick, along Manjimaru.
* LightningBruiser
* {{Pornstache}}
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Some sites spell his last name as "Minaminno" or "Minnamino".

!!![=Ken45=]º
* BigBadWannabe: During his Ken Gundan tenure, in which he recruited jobbers to form an evil stable. Unsurprisingly, the team didn't last.
* CombatPragmatist: Has an elaborated wrestling expertise based in this.
* DancingIsSeriousBusiness: As part of Los Salseros Japoneses.
* GroinAttack: Has it as a casual signature move, and for some reason he is never disqualified for it.

* RockersSmashGuitars: Both as a rocker and as a salsero.
* TheRockStar: His current gimmick.

* RedBaron: "Damashi Tamashii" ("Deceiving Soul").
* WalkingTheEarth: Despite his consistent pushes in most companies, Fujita is known for his liking to move along the pro wrestling scene, wandering from very small promotions to big ones from time to time.

* TrueCompanions: With Minamino and Ooma, who were the only Kowloon members that refused to betray him. They jumped to protect him from a beatdown by Kenou and the rest of the stable and went to form Bad Boy with him and Ken45º.

* DemotedToExtra: Despite his status as a promising rookie and his succesful tenure as top heel in M-Pro, the dissolution of LSJ got him demoted to a mid-carder mook for the next young heel, Hayato Fujita. He never recovered his prestige.

* CelebrityResemblance: He looks like Shuji Kondo, which was noted later in his career. Amusingly enough, he debuted before Kondo himself.

%%* TheRockStar: Sported a rock star gimmick in the past as GAINA, though it was most based around appearance than true musical performance.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: wore in green and sported green hair.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: His gimmick was created as a replacement for Hayabusa in Wrestling/FrontierMartialArtsWrestling.

* PutOnABus: Left for Osaka Pro Wrestling, where he built his career up.

* BigBrotherMentor: He leads the MEN's Club, a wrestling division for young cruiserweight wrestlers who lack exposure elsewhere.

* MightyGlacier: Unusual for a lucharesu wrestler, but he does not use high-flying moves, in favor of a more grounded and strength-based offensive.

%%* DelinquentHair

* CanonImmigrant: Originally came from [[Wrestling/DragonGate Toryumon Japan]]. His stay in MPW was arguably a stepping stone, as he was more interested in returning to the Toryumon system than anything.

!!!Kagetora
* {{Jerkass}}
* LightningBruiser

!!!Kinya Oyanagi
* RedBaron: "Tsugaru ni Teioh" ("The Emperor of Tsugaru").

* YouRemindMeOfX: The first time they faced in a interpromotional event, [[Wrestling/DragonGate Toryumon Japan]]'s SUWA commented how Tiger Mask IV reminded him of his ArchEnemy Dragon Kid. Their matches were predictably violent.
