Minoru Suzuki will be making his highly-anticipated MLW debut on October 14th, and it has recently been announced that his opponent will be one of the promotion’s top stars.
For the first time ever, Minoru Suzuki will be going head-to-head with “The Samoan Werewolf” Jacob Fatu.
Fans unaware of Jacob Fatu will perhaps be intrigued by the rising star’s last name. Fatu a member of the famous Anoa’i family. He is the nephew of Rikishi, who played a vital part in training Jacob for the world of wrestling.
Jacob Fatu is also cousins with the Usos and Solo Sikoa, and is a nephew of the late Umaga, so wrestling is undoubtedly flowing through his veins.
Fatu called out Minoru Suzuki on last week’s edition of MLW Fusion, a challenge accepted by “The King of Wrestling,” with the bout set for October 14th at MLW’s Slaughterhouse PPV.
Minoru Suzuki, affectionately known in the wrestling community as “Murder Grandpa,” has been keeping himself very busy in 2023.
In the last few months, he has wrestled for a plethora of promotions, including, but not limited to; All Elite Wrestling, New Japan Pro Wrestling, Impact Wrestling, Hokuto Pro Wrestling, New Horizon Pro Wrestling and GLEAT.
At 55 years old, the wrestling and MMA veteran shows no signs or intentions of slowing down.
