I’d like to extend my heartfelt condolences to the Japanese people, many of which enthusiastically support me as I compete for Japan’s SMASH wrestling organization, in their time of duress and trial after yesterday’s powerful earthquake.  My prayers go out to you, and to the many friends that I have made in your great country.

I can honestly say that the most passionate wrestling fans in the world are found in Japan.  Over 2010, the wrestling fans nationwide across Japan took StarBuck into their hearts, and even voted me amongst the top 5 foreign stars in their country in the wrestling industry.  On several occasions, the Japanese wrestling fans have presented me with personal gifts, from Katana swords to artwork to food products, and this is something that I will never forget.  I am completely sincere when I say that I truly love the Japanese wrestling fans, because they have showed so much love to me.

Stand strong, Japan!  Take heart and persevere, because that is what winners are made of.
