Originally from Osaka but now residing in Mexico, Okumura, known as “Luchador Japonés,” brings a unique blend of Japanese and Mexican wrestling styles to the ring. It’s this style and his vast experience that Okumura hopes will allow him to outlast 39 other Battle RIOT fighters.

With an illustrious two-decade career 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 with Mexico’s most prestigious wrestling organization, Okumura achieved a milestone by winning the CMLL World Trios Championship alongside Hiroshi Tanahashi and Taichi, further cementing his reputation. Now, Okumura fights for a title shot, anytime, anywhere.

The question is: what will happen if he wins? and now has to fight his own friend and tag team partner, Satoshi Kojima?!
