Atsushi Onita Biography

Atsushi Onita is one of the most popular and richest Actor who was born on October 25, 1957 in Nagasaki, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan.

Atsushi Onita (大仁田 厚 , Ōnita Atsushi, born October 25, 1957) is a Japanese actor, politician, and professional wrestler, best known for his work in Frontier Martial-Arts Wrestling (FMW). He is credited with importing to Japan, as well as innovating, the deathmatch style of professional wrestling.

When the junior heavyweight boom started in Japan under Tatsumi Fujinami and the original Tiger Mask, Satoru Sayama, Onita was picked as the ace of AJPW’s makeshift junior heavyweight division. Baba was able to get Chavo Guerrero, Sr., who had been an early rival of Fujinami, over to AJPW’s side, and Guerrero brought the NWA International Junior Heavyweight Championship with him, effectively establishing it as AJPW’s junior heavyweight cornerstone. Onita and Guerrero’s subsequent feud over the title spanned three promotions (AJPW, Jim Crockett Promotions and Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre), and, while not as spectacular as New Japan Pro Wrestling’s junior division, provided solid alternate wrestling to AJPW fans. On January 3, 1985, he had to retire due to accumulated injuries, after a failed comeback attempt, which ended after his last match on December 2, 1984, against Mighty Inoue. He would be replaced by Masanobu Fuchi as the new junior heavyweight ace of AJPW.

On March 30, Great Nita lost to Pogo Daiyo in a lumberjack match. Mr. Pogo refused to be Onita’s opponent at 6th Anniversary Show and then Takashi Ishikawa was finally selected as the ace until Hayabusa interrupted Onita at a press conference and volunteered to be his opponent at the event as Hayabusa had been convinced by Shoichi Arai, whom Onita had sold the company around this time. Hayabusa was ultimately selected to be Onita’s opponent in his retirement match. Just one day shy of his retirement match, Onita defeated Pogo in a barbed wire double hell deathmatch to win his record-setting seventh and final Brass Knuckles Heavyweight Championship on May 4. The following night at the 6th Anniversary Show, Onita successfully defended the title against Hayabusa in a no ropes exploding barbed wire deathmatch. After the match, Onita vacated the title due to his retirement from wrestling to pursue an acting career. During this time, he starred in the movie Dan Gan (Japanese for “bullet”), which would later be adopted as the nickname for Onita’s pupil, Masato Tanaka. Onita’s acting career flopped and he ventured a return to wrestling.
