Ring Entrance

'Deshi Basara (He Rises)' by Hans Zimmer blares through the arena. As the first set of chants subsides, Ryu Kanata steps out from behind the curtain, and pauses, his arms in a crucifix pose, head bowed. He waits there for a moment before charging headlong towards the ring, sliding in under the bottom rope, and climbing the opposite turnbuckle, where he repeats the crucifix pose before dropping back to the ring and awaiting the bell...

"LADIES & GENTLEMEN...
HAILING FROM KORIYAMA, JAPAN...
THE BROKEN GLASS & BARBED WIRE PHOENIX....
...RYU KANATA!!!!"

Ring Attire
Blue jeans tucked into black wrestling boots. Black t-shirt. Heavily taped wrists, hands & fingers.
