10 Most Badass Looking Wrestlers In The World Today
9. Shingo Takagi
Inside the ring, Shingo Takagi is much more minimalist in comparison to the extravagant Penta El Zero M, with his traditionalist ring gear being a stark contrast to the elaborate colours and face paint of Penta. Yet, Shingo stands out from the first second you see him.
His size is a big factor. While he's not as muscular as many of his contemporaries, he's broad and looks like he could charge into you like a bulldozer. His entrance gear is immaculate, with his badass mask and wonderful array of jackets making him stand out from the first second he's visible. In addition, he has a similar presence to his fellow incredible NJPW heavyweight Hirooki Goto, who has an in-ring presentation and physical aesthetic a lot like Takagi's.
Yet, Shingo is one of the most badass looking wrestlers in the world today because of his aura and his facial expressions. There is this fury in his eyes, an intensity that can't be taught or contained and it immediately captivates everyone who sees him. As soon as he unmasks and stares down the camera, you know someone's going to be destroyed by his Pumping Bomber lariat. He is immeasurably cool.
