Tsutomu Oosugi (大杉勉,Ōsugi Tsutomu; born January 10, 1985)[4] is a Japaneseprofessional wrestler. He currently wrestles as a freelancer in the Japanese independent circuit and as a regular in bothMichinoku Pro Wrestling (Michinoku Pro) andBig Japan Pro Wrestling (BJW). Hisring name is written inkatakana asTsutomu Oosugi (ツトム・オースギ).
Oosugi debuted forToryumon Mexico on May 16, 2004 under the name ofMilanito Collection a.t., a smaller version of theMilano Collection AT gimmick. This was another in the long line of Toryumon tribute gimmicks, with the main example being the Mini Crazy MAX unit. However, like many of theToryumon X characters, he never made it into the main Toryumon system asUltimo Dragon split his school from the promotion, which would go on to becomeDragon Gate (DG).
Milanito would land in the dragondoor promotion, joiningTaiji Ishimori in his faction against the Aagan Iisou stable, led byShuji Kondo. Later dragondoor was moved onto El Dorado Wrestling, where he continued the Milanito gimmick and formed atag team withEl Blazer. Although they had important victories over factions like Aagan Iisou and STONED, the team broke when Blazer left El Dorado, depressing Milanito and forcing him to search for a new partner.
When the big Dorado unit shuffle took place, Milanito was selected by aceShuji Kondo to join his SUKIYAKI stable. However, the concept as a whole failed, with most of Milanito's top matches in late 2007 occurring as part of theBig Japan "MEN's Club" angle. During his feud withDanshoku Dino, Milanito debuted ahomosexual aspect to his character, using the name Milano Collection gay.t and finishing his matches with aCanadian Destroyer variation where the opponent's head would be stuffed into his trunks. This spilled over into El Dorado, where a feud withHercules Oosenga over their entrance backup dancers lead to Milanito using male bodybuilders instead of women. Oosenga would defeat Milanito and thus take away Milanito's right to use backup dancers, and the Milanito gimmick as a whole was sealed on December 29, 2007, when he lost a match toMilano Collection A.T.
Now without his main gimmick, Milanito returned later in 2008 under his real name, Tsutomu Oosugi, and formed a tag team with Hercules Senga, known as Speed of Sounds. The two proved to be a very successful duo, wrestling a high-speed style reminiscent of theMotor City Machine Guns orPaul London and Brian Kendrick. They were permanent fixtures on El Dorado cards.
The same year of his debut in El Dorado, Oosugi debuted inMichinoku Pro asRei, a masked character representing a spirit of the forest. Initiallyface, Rei was defeated byKen45º in order to turn him a member of hisheelstable Ken Gundan alongMototsugu Shimizu andBanana Senga, changing his costume from white to black. However, the stable was dissolved and Rei returned to the face side. Then Rei adopted a purple outfit and mask based in theEvangelion Unit 01 fromNeon Genesis Evangelion, having a successful feud withShibaten. In 2008, Oosugi changed his gimmick toYapper Man #2, taken from theanimeYatterman.
While part of El Dorado, Milanito started wrestling forBig Japan Pro Wrestling (BJW). Later as Speed of Sounds, they became a part ofMens Teioh's "Men's Club" junior cruiserweight matches, increasing their apparitions over the years until making the promotion their main field in 2015.
