Ups...

12. TAKA Is Coming, MOTHERF--

NJPW

A few choice moments from TAKA Michinoku's wonderful entrance track, "Yamato Suite No. 4":-

0:01: "TAKA is coming, motherf*cker!", the ex-Kaientai man growls, scaring the p*ss out of his opponent.

0:14: "I'm gonna kick you ass, man!"

0:32: "Hey, you son of a b*tch! My f*cking name is TAKA Michinoku!", he reaffirms the listener with a level of aggression that is 100% necessary. He adds: "I am Suzuki-gun: what the f*ck do you want?!"

The audio odyssey continues thereafter, and being able to hear this masterpiece of a theme every other night was one of the best things about having the gritty, grimy grappler back in the tournament this year. A shame he got injured halfway through.
