Biography: Chikao Kessin has a detailed background in the sport of Sumo Wrestling, where he achieved the rank of Ozeki before being forced into retirement. Kessin was initiated into the Pro-Wrestling BETA dojo in early 2002, before being dispatched to Pro-Wrestling FURY later in the year. Kessin immediately struck a heated rivalry with fellow Sumo, Masafuji Yoshida. After two "Sumo Exhibitions", their rivalry turned into a strong friendship, and one of FURY's most popular tag teams. The "Sumo Brothers" achieved success after two years together, by winning the KFD Tag Team titles on 12/21/2004. Kessin and Yoshida exploded in popularity in 2006, when they invaded PROMO * JAPAN's PWC Tag League tournament. Incredibly, Yoshida and Kessin would proudly represent FURY in winning the tournament, and becoming the first PWC World Tag Team champions. Kessin had a breakout performance in the 2006 F-MAX Summit tournament, earning pinfall wins over KFD Heavyweight Champion Akira Takayoshi, and eventual tournament winner Hiroaki Nakata. After a brief halt in his progression, Kessin managed to regain the PWC World Tag Team titles with Masafuji Yoshida after scoring an incredible direct fall over the legendary Jason Ramsey.
