Outlook - The years in Toryumon were kind to Judo SUWA. He enjoyed top heel duty
for some time, but eventually fell in with the cool heels and that eventually undermined his
character. SUWA was the company's best talent in the company's early years, but sort of hit a
rut when the next crop began emerging strongly. He made a big career decision when he began
touring with NOAH and his success has been impressive. SUWA has joined the company with the
best junior division in the world and shined due to his great in-ring and tremendous heel work.
SUWA is hitting his stride in NOAH and may in fact be hitting his peak as a performer, which
is amazing considering his excellence in the past.
