Daisuke Sasaki (Zuo “Mu Da Fu, Sasaki Daisuke born on November 22nd in 1985) is a Japanese professional wrestler that is part of the DDT Pro-Wrestling (DDT) promotion which includes an ex-KO-D Openweight Champion and a one-time DDT Extreme Division Champion and four-time KO-D Tag Team Champion, three-time Ko-D Six-Man Tag Team Champion, and a three-time Ironman Heavymetalweight Champion. Sasaki was also seen in numerous appearances in New Japan Pro- Wrestling (NJPW) and was a part of the organization’s Junior Heavyweight Division.
Sasaki was back in NJPW the 24th of February, at NEVER.5 He fell to Ryusuke Taguchi. On April 7, NEVER.6, Sasaki picked up his first NJPW win when the Japanese defeated Shinichiro Tominaga during the opening match of the Road to the Super Jr. 2Days Tournament. The next morning, Sasaki first defeated Ryuichi Sekine in the semifinals , and later Tsuyoshi Kikuchi at the end of finals, to be the winner of the tournament and gain an entry into the 2011 Best of the Super Juniors tournament. On April 19, at New Japan Brave 2011, Sasaki wrestled for the first time in an NJPW main-card match in which he wrestled alongside co-workers DDT employees Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi to take on Kushida, Prince Devitt and Ryusuke Taguchi in a tag team of six men match. On May 26th, Sasaki entered the 2011 Best of the Super Juniors tournament. After the tournament was over just two weeks after, Sasaki finished last in his round-robin block. He had lost seven games and won only one match against Gedo.
Sasaki returned to NJPW on May 27, when he entered the 2012 Best of the Super Juniors tournament. Sasaki managed to pick up wins against Hiromu Takahashi and Jado, but lost his other six matches in the tournament and finished seventh out of the nine wrestlers in his block. On June 16 NJPW’s Dominion 6.16 pay-per-view, Sasaki teamed with Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi to defeat Bushi, Prince Devitt and Kushida in a six-man tag team match. Back in DDT, Sasaki and Masa Takanashi received a shot at the KO-D Tag Team Championship on June 24, but were defeated by the defending champions, Homoiro Clover Z representatives Kudo and Makoto Oishi. On July 8, Sasaki and Takanashi joined Antonio Honda, Hoshitango, Yasu Urano and Yuji Hino to form the Monster Army. On July 19, Sasaki made another appearance for NJPW as part of a build-up to a match between Kota Ibushi and IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion Low Ki. In the match, Sasaki and Ibushi were defeated by Ki and Jado, with Ki pinning Sasaki for the win. The Monster Army wrestled its first match together on July 22, when they were defeated by Akito, DJ Nira, Poison Julie Sawada, Rion Mizuki and Tetsuya Endo in a ten-man tag team match, after Hino and Hoshitango began brawling with each other. The brawling continued after the match with Sasaki and Takanashi siding with Hoshitango and Honda and Urano with Hino, which led to Takanashi announcing that the Monster Army was history and that he, Sasaki and Hoshitango were now known as “Familia”. On August 18 at DDT’s 15th anniversary event in Nippon Budokan, Sasaki, Takanashi, Hoshitango, Tetsuya Endo and Tsukasa Fujimoto, representing Familia, defeated Antonio Honda, Tanomusaku Toba, Yasu Urano, Yoshiko and Yuji Hino, representing Crying Wolf, in a ten-person tag team match, contested under “Soccer rules”. On August 26, DDT General Manager Amon Tsurumi ordered all stables in the promotion disbanded, effectively ending the short-lived Familia. On September 9, Sasaki, along with Antonio Honda and Yasu Urano, traveled to La Paz, Bolivia, to take part in Dick Togo’s retirement match; an eight-man elimination tag team match, where the four were defeated by Ajayu, Apocalipsis, Guerrero Ayar and Halcon Dorado.

He would lose the title back to Honda later that same day. Sasaki would regain the title from Honda on July 10 in a three-way match, which also included Tsuyoshi Kikuchi, but lost the title to Kikuchi immediately after the match. Sasaki won the title for the third time on July 21 and lost it to Honda in a Royal Rumble match three days later. The storyline around the Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship effectively ended the partnership between Sasaki and Honda, after which Sasaki joined the DDT Seikigun (“regular army”) and began teaming regularly with Masa Takanashi. On January 8, 2012, Sasaki teamed with Takanashi, Keisuke Ishii and Shigehiro Irie to defeat the Crying Wolf stable of Antonio Honda, Keita Yano, Yasu Urano and Yuji Hino in an eight-man tag team match, pinning Urano for the win and handing Crying Wolf their first ever loss.

After 18 months of wrestling the Italian Four Horsemen disbanded on April 21st, 2010, after Sasaki, Honda and Togo defeated Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi and Kudo in a tag-team match. Following that, Sasaki returned to working under his own name. On August 8th, Sasaki defeated Keisuke Ishii in the finals of a four-man event to become the top candidate for DDT’s top title the KO-D Openweight Championship.
