Jiji Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 He's a Muslim, so maybe this was his way of connecting to the poor? I don't know. Stretching here.
odessasteps Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 It’s also similar to the classic “king disguises himself to mingle amongst his subjects” trope as seen in many stories, including a Henry V. 1
Curt McGirt Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 His heart may be in the right place but that really isn't the right way of going about that. He's a politician, albeit retired. He can do better than playing dress-up. Anyway, according to Wiki he considers himself a Shia Muslim and a Buddhist as well. Not sure how that works. Shit, it's Inoki, what do you want? After all these years it's silly to be surprised at anything to do with the man.
Jiji Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 Easily the most interesting human being in professional wrestling history from my perspective. I remember reading an article about just his politics a year or so ago and it was fascinating. But yeah, take your pick from sources. 1001 Nights, Henry V, several feudal Japanese nobles did that. I don't remember them getting an action figure for it but hey, they weren't Antonio Inoki.

BurningBeard Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 Inoki has got to be one of the most deluded people in prowrestling history right?

How is she as a wrestler? I remember seeing some really positive press on her wearing a Hijab to the ring and always took a liking to her since then. I believe Mustafa Ali tweeted some stuff about her as well.

Haven't seen the match yet. I'm guessing she's probably quite green though. I think the event is on Fite... yeah, it is. $9.99 to own forever. 1
