1 | 02.02.2025 | BurningLariat | | Aagan Iisou was one of the most notorious heel factions in Toryumon and early Dragon Gate, emerging from the dissolution of the Italian Connection in 2003. Led by Shuji Kondo and "brother" YASSHI, the group quickly established itself as a dominant and ruthless force. With the addition of veterans like Masaaki Mochizuki and later Toru Owashi and Henry III Sugawara, Aagan Iisou combined power, aggression, and underhanded tactics. Kondo eventually wrestled control of the group from Mochizuki. By the end of 2004, their backstage issues culminated in Kondo, YASSHI, Owashi, Sugawara, and "Jet" Takagi being shockingly dismissed from Dragon Gate. Though they later reunited in the off-shoot El Dorado Pro Wrestling, their firing remains one of the most infamous incidents in Dragon Gate's history. |
