Yoshinari Ogawa, a legendary wrestler known to those in the know.

In pro wrestling, athleticism and mic skills tend to get the spotlight, but if you look purely at in-ring skill, there’s no one in Japan—or the world—who truly matches Yoshinari Ogawa.

Though his moves and performance are understated, Ogawa excels at captivating through the flow of a match.

Surprisingly, his entrance is also enduringly popular.

Supporting that entrance is Rob Zombie’s classic “Scum of the Earth.” Built on groove metal, the track delivers a tremendously powerful melody.

Ogawa’s performance—calmly walking to the ring as the song plays—may be simple, but it carries an incredible cool factor.

Be sure to check out his entrance, and his matches as well!
