Oki-Kira (or simply Kira; real name unknown) is a Japanese professional wrestler and trainer. After a short stint with 4 Corners Wrestling in 2011, he returned in 2018 on a developmental contract. Some months later, he signed on as a full-timer. With a solid background in shoot/strong-style wrestling, Kira has trained a few members of 4CW's active talent roster. He also makes up one half of the tag team Silent Sorcery, along with Tsukiko Mizuno.

4CW Debut (2011)

In February 2011, Oki-Kira debuted in 4CW. The details of his brief tenure are sketchy. It is known, though, that he participated in the 2011 Sole Survivor tournament.

Departure from 4CW

Kira abruptly left 4CW sometime around April of 2011. The details surrounding his departure are unknown. Some time later, he began training aspiring young Japanese men in the art of strong style wrestling, going on to open his own dōjō.

Wherever I May Dome (2018)

In February of 2018, 4CW presented a SuperShow called Wherever I May Dome, live from Tokyo. At this event, Oki-Kira made a surprise appearance, competing against Witch Hazel, a former student of his. Hazel, Paige and Tsukiko had all been embroiled in a heated conflict. Hazel had heard rumor ("from a nice little birdy") of Oki-Kira being present at the event and challenged him to interact face-to-face with her, resulting in the impromptu match. On this night, Kira briefly returned to 4CW in a failed effort to curb Hazel's rage and stand up for the two students he had come to know as his closest friends. Prior to the match, Hazel confronted Kira, asking, "Did you know about the pills?" Kira denied any knowledge of the feud's catalyst, and noted that he would have liked to meet with Hazel on better terms. Hazel called Kira a "good friend", then pointed out that as long as Kira was standing by The Coven, he was standing in her way. After a hard-fought contest that saw Hazel's hand raised in victory, the Silver-Haired Sorceress did further damage to Kira, putting on her rarely-seen horned crown and hitting him with the Hexing Headbutt. Hazel wrapped up her post-match attack with The Mind Flayer (a delayed vertebreaker), sending a violent message to her former allies.

Training career (2011 - Present)

Kira began running a small dōjō in 2011. He sold it off in 2014 and moved to Newfoundland, Canada to focus on training the then-unknown Pilgrim Paige, with help from his on-again/off-again "frenemy", Ravnos Midnight. Ravnos went on to move to Japan for the second time in his life, soon followed by Kira. After the former's suicide in May 2017, Kira got back into training fledgling athletes, based this time out of Osaka. In his spare time, Kira hosts private one-on-one training sessions, with a fairly rounded approach to both shoot style and catch style wrestling.

His most successful students are Pilgrim Paige, Tsukiko Mizuno and Witch Hazel.
