wolveswrestling Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 When I was kid, there was a lot of stories going around wolverhampton about Nagasaki and where he lived, think he was left a couple of houses in a relatives will. never knew if it was true though. Â This is the article on his boundry story.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/140...-land-grab.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Tommy! Posted March 5, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 5, 2011 I meant it as in regards to the person who's supposedly the most well-off guy in the entire industry in this country, and a fan can only remember that his house was detached - I thought that it would be a lot more spectacular, that's all. It's not like he's said if "I recall right it was an Aston Martin on his drive" or "I'm sure I recall seeing a second helipad" is it? Of course the wealthiest guy in an industry the size of pro wrestling (I understand that Britwres isn't spectacular) is going to be living in a detached house. Hope that makes more sense. Â Too be fair I must be going back 10 years and it was mostly footage of him shouting about trees, if it even was him. It could have been some other wrestler and I've got mixed up, I do that. Â I've tried to find it on youtube or something but can't . There is a vid of him wandering round a wood and driving a Lamborghini though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Posh Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Willaim regal has to be richest. Although he does not wrestle over here he did start in England. Â He may be wealthy but I read in an interview where he says he isn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happ Hazzard Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Maybe he's a US dollar millionaire but not a millionaire in sterling. Â He'd have to be doing fairly bad to be working in major promotions in the US for the past 18 years and not be a millionaire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted March 5, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 5, 2011 What about Americans who work in the UK a lot? do those people count? or are we strictly speaking brit lads who only work brit shows? Â sounds daft, but people who who have been in a top promotion (even if not a main eventer) must be ok generally. Names that spring to mind are Tatanka and Kevin Thorne. Â Ive tried to think of brit lads who have been around for a while that have stayed in wrestling, i cant think that they are massively well off, but it must work for them... Jonny Storm springs to mind. Im not saying he's got millions stashed away, but he's been a brit wres' lad for quite a while now and always works at top UK shows, gets outside the country too. Not to mention he's still mint in the ring and a top bloke. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â edit - please contact 07***676*** for Jonny Storm bookings. Â obviously not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperstarNeilC Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Kendo Nagasaki is the wealthiest by far - He drives a Lamborghini, with private number plate, and lives in a mansion   Here's his mansion  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Cena Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Well it is detached, I'll give him that. Â Ian, that's immense just how much money Hogan manages to still get thrown his way. He must have turned over some serious coin over the space of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Ford Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Kendo Nagasaki is the wealthiest by far - He drives a Lamborghini, with private number plate, and lives in a mansion That looks very much like the front of the Hatton Court Hotel in Upton St Leonards.

Beckham's Right Foot Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Kendo Nagasaki is the wealthiest by far - He drives a Lamborghini, with private number plate, and lives in a mansion That looks very much like the front of the Hatton Court Hotel in Upton St Leonards.  He also has parking spaces painted outside??  However, it doesn't actually say it's HIS mansion.

Super Cena Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I'm not sure that the two pictures are necessarily meant to be of the same location, are they? Â Edit: I have to say that it would get a big haha from me if Nagasaki's just got his mate to take the picture of him stood by the Lamborghini after seeing it there with the KN numberplate so he could put it as his Facebook profile photo.

Why do you assume that just because he's been in WWE for the past 13 years (and WCW before that) he's a millionaire? Well he was in WCW for 5 years and WWE for 13 you'd expect him to have been making from about 97 onwards upwards of 100k a year, unless hes just squanderd it all on drugs and his health problems.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 5, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 5, 2011 Regal doesn't sell merchandise, which is where the bulk comes from and he's never main evented, so its not like he's getting massive royalty cheques every two weeks. Say he's on a low six figure downside, added to the fact he's been in bad health which needs paying for, road expenses and as recently as 2007 said he wasnt a millionaire, I'd imagine he's still in the same boat. Benoit wasnt a millionaire by all accounts, and he had 10 times better career than Regal. A WWE wrestlers lifestyle doesnt come cheap. Â WWF/WWE wrestlers have never been the best at handling their money. Road Dogg's quote is the best: "when I got my release from WWF I had $800,000 in the bank. Three months later I was in jail and didn't have a penny". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else from the WOS days would be on Midlands news bitching about trees? I'm really interested now. Â Curse my weak memory and lackadaisical attitude towards the local news.
