10 Best Wrestling Threats Of All Time
1. Friend Till The End
Wrestle Kingdom 13 was such a stacked card that Minoru Suzuki and most of his Suzuki-gun group were left off the show entirely - relegated as they were to a pre-show gauntlet 'The King' himself referred to as an "embarrassment".
Perhaps sensing the shun in advance, Suzuki cut another scintillating and sinister promo following a December World Tag League brawl with Best Friends pair Beretta and Chuckie T. The latter had lost his patience with a post-match attack, but had lost his mind daring to step to the most frightening 50-year-old in all of wrestling.
In 2018 alone, Suzuki had already inflicted the aforementioned injury on NJPW's Ace Hiroshi Tanahashi, and wished a serious accident on the entire crowd, but nothing compared to the fate he promised should Chuckie spit his dummy out near him again.
"I will absolutely kill you, b*stard," is succinct, yet superb. Suzuki's worked for 30 years to earn the reputation as a pro wrestling killer, to the point where just six words are required to get the message across. Five would have done, but why end your salvo without cursing out the victim anyway? As suggested, "This isn't playtime", but when has anyone within 100 miles of Minoru Suzuki ever thought that?!
