Japan History:
Nakajima actually made his professional wrestling debut in World Japan,
losing to Tomohiro Ishii in the main event on January 5th, 2004 at the
age of 15. This was towards the end of the promotion's life however
and he soon left the promotion to wrestler for New Japan.
2005 Recap:
Rarely does a wrestler have as much of an impact at such a young age
then Nakajima did in 2005. In 2005, Nakajima wrestled for Dragon
Gate, NOAH, and All Japan, with All Japan being the place he had the
most success. Teaming with Kensuke Sasaki, they won the titles
on July 26th, making the 17 year old Nakajima one of the youngest champions
in puroresu history. Nakajima also wrestled with Sasaki in NOAH,
wrestling Kobashi and Go Shiosaki on November 5th in an outstanding
match. One of the best young wrestlers in Japan, Nakajima has
a bright future in puroresu.
2006 Recap:
Nakajima held All Asia Tag Team Championship along with his mentor Kensuke
Sasaki for the first part of the year until they were forced to vacate
due to Sasaki's injury in the summer. He also participated in his first
All Japan Champion Carnival, and even though he came in last in his
bracket it was a good experience. Nakajima wrestled in Zero-One MAX
as well, where he held the WWA World Welterweight Championship. In the
summer, Nakajima reached the finals of the All Japan Jr. Heavyweight
Tournament, but lost in the finals to Kaz Hayashi. Still young and gaining
experience, Nakajima made a big leap in 2006 and proved that he is ready
for the next step.
