Hailing originally from Osaka but now calling Mexico home, Okumura, known as the “Luchador Japonés,” brings a unique blend of Japanese and Mexican wrestling styles to the ring.
Okumura made his debut in 1994, journeying throughout Japan and competing at the highest level from All Japan Pro Wrestling to FMW, before entering New Japan Pro Wrestling.
With an illustrious career spanning two decades in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Okumura has established himself as a seasoned veteran and a force to be reckoned with. During his tenure in Mexico’s most prestigious wrestling organization, Okumura achieved a significant milestone by capturing the CMLL World Trios Championship alongside Hiroshi Tanahashi and Taichi, solidifying his reputation.
Now, representing CMLL, Okumura embarks on a new journey in MLW.
Often teaming up with Satoshi Kojima in MLW as the formidable “CozyMAX” team, the duo has aspirations of conquering new heights and competing for championship gold.
With his wealth of experience and mastery of both Japanese and Mexican wrestling techniques, Okumura brings a unique dynamic to the MLW roster, promising thrilling fights in the ring.
