Trivia / Yoshiaki Fujiwara

Go To

  • Fountain of Expies: Anytime you see someone in Japanese media parodying an old school pro wrestler with black tights and matching wrestling shoes, often locking people up in submissions and making scary faces, he will be parodying either Antonio Inoki or Fujiwara himself. Osamu Kido was already known at his day as a Fujiwara expy despite he debuted actually earlier than him.
  • Real Song Theme Tune: "Ride of the Valkyries" by Richard Wagner.
  • What Could Have Been: After PWFG closed, Fujiwara and Bart Vale were offered contracts by Akira Maeda to compete in Fighting Network RINGS. They declined to sign up, though accepted to work a few matches for them. It is rumored that Fujiwara didn't stick around because other RINGS members were against him out of factionalism.
