Yet another great wrestler has said good bye to the world. 82 years old.
http://www.wwe.com/article/mr-fuji-passes-awayWWE is saddened to learn that WWE Hall of Famer Harry Fujiwara, known to WWE fans as Mr. Fuji, passed away this morning at the age of 82.
Fuji spent more than 30 years entertaining fans worldwide as both an in-ring competitor and one of WWE’s greatest managers. A five-time WWE World Tag Team Champion, Fuji was infamous for keeping small bags of salt in his tights which he would throw into his opponents’ eyes.
After retiring from the ring, Fuji managed a litany of WWE’s most feared Superstars, such as George “The Animal” Steele, Kamala, Killer Khan, Demolition, The Powers of Pain, Yokozuna and most notably, “Magnificent” Don Muraco.
With Muraco, Fuji treated WWE fans to the classic Fuji Vice, Fuji General, Fuji Bandito and Fuji Chan series. These series were ahead of their time because spoofing successful television shows as they tried to break into Hollywood was the epitome of sports-entertainment.
His career will be remembered by different generations for different reasons but Mr. Fuji, whether as a Superstar or manager, is one of the most entertaining performers in the history of WWE.
WWE extends its condolences to Fujiwara’s family, friends and fans.

I wonder if he got his start because of all the WWII anti-Japanese sentiment back in the day? He was old enough.

RIP! He was such a good heel as a manager. Throwing salt in Bret Hart's face was probably what I remember most. What was that, Wrestlemania 9? Was pretty young back then.

I liked Mr. Fuji though, fantastic manager, very memorable guy. I don't even think WWE has managers anymore except for Paul Heyman.

82 should have been a full life, I hope he lived it to the fullest. He will be missed. Originally Posted by Crissi

RIP. Probably the most famous Japanese-American in history after Asa Akira.

Thread title totally made me think this was going to be a Pokemon thread.
