The name "Hirohito" (The person) was actually the 124th Emperor, according to Google... And by the looks of the Promo from Raw, I guess this is gonna be another Anti-American guy, prolly most likley starting a stable...

What Would Kevin Do?

*sigh* If they kept Tajiri on Smackdown, and took Suzuki over there, they would have a badass stable. At this point though, Tajiri could stay solo... I hope they don't stick him with an anti-American gimmick... I'd settle for a pro-Japan gimmick.

Yeah, the promo was during Raw so I'm guessing he will premiere there. I have yet to see a Japanese wrestler I don't like, so :y:

I would say they could really push him. But the WWE dosent push any Japanese wrestlers except with stereotype gimmicks :(

During WWII.

Yeah, last Emperor of Japan, during the Showa era. Now the Emperor is Akihito, Hirohito's son, and it's now the Heisei period... I know my sh</>it.

I would guess this is RAW's answer to Mordecai on Smackdown.

The gimmick is odd in that its 50 years too late, but at the same time Yokozuna did a pro-Japanese/anti-American gimmick and it had some moderate success.

Everything I've heard says that "Hirohito" isn't the best in the ring, but I'll wait to judge until I actually see him.

Interesting to see where they position him right off the bat, and with so many Canadian babyfaces who will he feud with?

Anyone else think he looks like the evil version of Funaki? :-\

I think this guy would be good on SmackDown! as either Funaki's bodyguard, or Kyo Dai's "superior" sent in to re-establish them. On RAW, the only thing I can see is a feud against Tajiri.

Hirohito? Well, I guess it's better than bringing in a German guy and calling him Hitler.

Or we could bring Nikolai Volkoff back. He could grow a mustache and some hair, then we could call him Josef Stalin.

Or better yet, start a NEW stable with World War II leader impersonators. I'm having trouble with the Benito Mussolini though. Who could that be? Bruno Sammartino? Naw. What fat Italian wrestler would fit that bill?

I heard Hirohito is going to have a Samurai gimmick, and be totally undefeated. And then when he is finally beaten, he will kill himself.

That's what inside sources say.

His entrance should be the "Hail Myself" song from the Springtime for Hitler part of "The Producers"
