The Apparition (born 1984-85) is a Canadian professional wrestler currently signed with Strong Style Wrestling.

Professional Wrestling Career[]

Early Career (2005 - 2014)[]

The Apparition made his professional wrestling debut in the Toronto region sometime in 2005. He worked under his birth name during his time in Canada. In 2008 he made his debut for a small Independent promotion in the United States, before making his debut in The Classic Wrestling Federation, prior to its merger with Answers Championship Wrestling into Answers Championship Wrestling Federation (ACWF). How long he spent in this company, what his in-ring name was during this time, and any accomplishments he had during this time are currently unknown.

When ACWF shut down, The Apparition continued to perform for a series of companies primarily in the United States before he retired some time in 2014.

Strong Style Wrestling (2018)[]

The Apparition made his debut under his current name in Strong Style Wrestling in 2018. Claiming to have stripped off all of his prior accomplishments, The Apparition began performing as a masked wrestler, while associating himself with Shoot Nation shortly after SSW returned from hiatus in April.

He made his debut on 14 April teaming with Jun Nobunaga against Tres Comas Club members Matias Navarro and Militiades, where The Apparition pinned Militiades for the victory. Later that evening, he confronted Khmaoch Sângkât, challenging him for SSW Heritage Championship. This fed into the continuing feud between Shoot Nation and Sângkât's Phantom Troupe, which led to a series of multi-person tag matches over the following weeks involving Apparition and Sângkât, mostly won by the latter group. On an untelevised House Show, The Apparition scored a pinfall victory against Sângkât in an 8-man tag match.

Personal Life[]

Not much is known about The Apparition's personal life. He does have an older sister, and apparently continues to reside in Toronto. He is of Japanese descent, but only knows how to speak English and basic French.

During his retirement, he went back to work in a blue-collared profession, with a degree he obtained from the University of Toronto. He later went on indefinite leave from this position so he could move to Japan and continue his career as a professional wrestler.
