Fujita Hayato

For over a decade, Fujita "Jr." Hayato was a pillar for Michinoku Pro Wrestling and amongst the company's top heels. Hayato first captured the Tohoku Junior Heavyweight Title, Michinoku Pro's top prize, in December 2008 from Yoshitsune. He won the championship for a second time after defeating Kenoh in June 2012. In late 2018, Hayato announced that he had been diagnosed with spinal cancer. Subsequently, many believed it was only a matter of time before Hayato would retire from professional wrestling altogether. However, during the summer of 2022, Fujita "Jr." Hayato revealed that he would be returning to Michinoku Pro to challenge Musashi for the coveted Tohoku Junior Heavyweight Championship. Hayato went on to defeat Musashi on 01.07.2022 to win the Tohoku Junior Heavyweight Title for a third time. During his post-match celebration, an emotional Hayato called out Kenoh (now with Pro Wrestling NOAH) and New Japan Pro Wrestling's Hiromu Takahashi for future matches. The CAGEMATCH.net Team would like to congratulate Fujita "Jr." Hayato on his return to professional wrestling, and he is our Superstar Of The Week!
