!!!Yoshihiro Yamazaki/Tiger Mask IV
* AlliterativeName
* AnimalMotifs: Lions perhaps?
* TheApprentice: To Wrestling/SatoruSayama and Wrestling/TheGreatSasuke.
* ArchEnemy: Continued the New Japan tradition with Black Tiger IV (Rocky Romero), V (Tatsuhito Takaiwa), and VI (Wrestling/TomohiroIshii).
* TheArtifact: His style and gimmick are somehow outdated and he is not a very exciting part of the New Japan junior division, but is a pretty solid performer and receives occasional pushes.
* BashBrothers: With Wrestling/JushinThunderLiger.
* BattleStrip: At ''NJPW Fight For Existence II" when called out by Wrestling/LowKi, though it was quickly broken up before anything could really happen.
* BodyguardingABadass: Was part of Wrestling/NaoyaOgawa's UFO entourage during the 1.4 Incident.
* CanonImmigrant: Started out his pro wrestling career with Wrestling/MichinokuProWrestling and had a few matches in Battlarts before he became an official wrestler for UFO.
* CombatPragmatist: Similar to his master, despite being a babyface wrestler, he often resorted to tactics mostly associated with heels. It is one of the reasons he got his "Yellow Devil" nickname.
* TheComplainerIsAlwaysWrong: He is somewhat infamous because he likes to criticize things on New Japan, like the guest MMA fighters and the new junior heavyweights. Though at times, he had good reason to do so.
* CoolMask: Wouldn't be a Tiger Mask without one. He also one during his UFO matches that resembles the one wore by Yellow Devil in Anime/TigerMaskW and is possibly the inspiration behind it.
* CoolTeacher: Has trained joshi wrestlers Ayako Hamada (one of his sister-in-laws) and Candy Okutsu (when she was training to be Arsion's Tiger Dream).
* EarlyBirdCameo: Debuted at the 1995 Creator/IkkiKajiwara Memorial Show against Wrestling/TheGreatSasuke before wrestling for Wrestling/MichinokuProWrestling.
** According to The Great Kabuki, he once took the entrance test for the SWS promotion and although he scored top marks in the test, he failed because he didn't meet the height standards. After that he worked part-time as a dishwasher at a hotel to raise funds to go to Mexico and try his luck at a pro wrestling career there, when an acquaintance of his introduced him to his eventual master Sayama.
* HeAlsoDid: He appeared on the second [[Series/NinjaWarrior SASUKE]] competition in 1998 although he failed to make it past the first obstacle of the First Stage.
* [[IKnowKarate I Know Shoot Wrestling]]: Trained at the Super Tiger Gym in both pro wrestling and Shooto.
* LegacyCharacter: The official successor to Wrestling/SatoruSayama and the longest lasting.
* MaskedLuchador: Specifically, the entire Tiger Mask line owe their existence to Fray Tormenta.
* MinoredInAssKicking: He fought in a Vale Tudo rules match against Ryuji Hijikata at the MAJKF: Ikki Kajiwara Cup 1998 and basically ran through him in less than 2 minutes. The only reason that both men don’t have a MMA record based on that fight is because both men are pro wrestlers and it happened at a UsefulNotes/{{Kickboxing}} event.
* RedBaron: "Kogane no Tora 4-Daime" ("4th Generation Golden Tiger"), "Kiiroi Akuma" ("Yellow Devil"), "Shinseki no Tora" ("Tiger of The New Century")
* SuplexFinisher: Tiger Suplex, Avalanche Double Underhook Suplex and other variants.
* UnderwearOfPower: Wore a yellow one in his Vale Tudo rules fight at the MAJKF: Ikki Kajiwara Cup 1998, probably as a tribute to his master, who fought in his kickboxing bout with Marc Costello in a green one.
* WrestlingFamily: Was once the son-in-law of Gran Hamada.
* YouRemindMeOfX: The first time they faced off at an 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.
