Once again, fearing that I would not be able to meet my own personally issued challenge, another topic of interest has appeared to save me!And continuing on the topic of professional wrestling, this one is big time news (especially if you follow Japanese wrestling).
CIMA (pictured, red and black trunks), former champion and "Ace" (top guy) of Dragon Gate wrestling, disappeared after having his return match for the Dragon Gate promotion back in December of last year.
Apparently CIMA disappeared without a trace and as such, his faction Typhoon, disbanded after they lost a unit banishment match.
While all of this was happening, people wondered where did their beloved CIMA go?
That question was answered as it has been reported that CIMA competed in a dark match (un-televised match) on WWE Smackdown! recently.
My wonder is this: Does this mean CIMA is trying to invade the US? Granted, he has wrestled in the USA before. But never (as far as I know) has he come to the US while not under the Dragon Gate banner.
Then again, who's to say that CIMA is really gone from Dragon Gate? And as I've come to know, guys that leave Japan tend to eventually return home for good. I suppose it goes along with the countless others who've gone to Japan to gain more experience.
In any event, wow... I wonder what my co-worker/friend must think about this? He is a diehard Dragon Gate fan, as well as a CIMA fan to boot.
Things sure are getting interesting in the overall world that is professional wrestling folks.
