High school
[edit]Sekimoto played on the baseball team at Meitoku Gijuku High School , and has been labeled as one of the "Matsuzaka Generation" of players, even though he did not go on to become a professional baseball player.[4] He was at the team's 1998 Summer Koshien semifinal loss against Yokohama High School, described as a "miracle comeback" for Yokohama, which won despite trailing 6–0 in the top of the eighth inning. Sekimoto has cited the moment that Daisuke Matsuzaka came on as a reliever for Yokohama in that game as a source of inspiration as well as a reminder to stay humble in his own wrestling career — even as a high schooler, Matsuzaka's celebrity commanded such a response from the crowd that "the atmosphere in the ballpark changed completely" when he took the field.[4]
Sekimoto decided to pursue his childhood dream of becoming a professional wrestler after graduating from high school, joining Big Japan Pro Wrestling (BJW) on a recommendation from his baseball coach Shirou Mabuchi .[4]
Professional wrestling career
[edit]Big Japan Pro Wrestling (1999–present)
[edit]Daisuke Sekimoto made his professional wrestling debut for BJW on August 10, 1999 by losing to Ryuji Ito.[5] As is customary in professional wrestling, especially in Japan, Sekimoto lost the majority of his matches in his early career. Sekimoto would win his first match ever on March 27, 2000 when he teamed up with Daikokubo Benkei to defeat Guerrero del Futuro and Ryuji Ito.[6] On January 28, 2001, Sekimoto teamed up with MEN's Teioh and defeated Kamikaze and Abdullah Kobayashi to become the BJW Tag Team Champions, this was the first championship Sekimoto ever held.[7] This combination of Sekimoto and Teioh would prove to be extremely successful, along with the BJW Tag Team Championship, the pair would go on to defeat Kintaro Kanemura and Ryuji Yamakawa for the FMW/WEW Hardcore Tag Team Championship and would hold it for over one hundred days before losing the titles to Jun Kasai and The Winger on March 21, 2002.[8] While still holding the BJW Tag Team Championship, Sekimoto challenged Daikokubo Benkei for the BJW Heavyweight Championship and on August 18, 2002 defeated him for the title which was the first singles honour of his career.[9] Holding both the BJW Heavyweight Championship and the BJW Tag Team Championship, Sekimoto was on top of Big Japan but this would last only a short time. Cracks started to show in the relationship between Sekimoto and Teioh and on September 15, 2002 they lost the BJW Tag Team Championship to Benkei Daikokuboh & Abdullah Kobayashi.[7] After losing the titles, Teioh turned on Sekimoto which led to a match between the two for the BJW Heavyweight Championship which took place on September 23 which Teioh won.[9]
