Riki Choshu
Born December 3, 1951, from Prefecture
During his time at Senshu University, he was active in wrestling and participated in the 1972 Munich Olympics.
In 1974, he made his debut with New Japan Pro-Wrestling led by Antonio Inoki, and changed his name from his real name, Mitsuo Yoshida, to “Riki Choshu” after an open call from fans.
Completely retired on June 26, 2019 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. The curtain fell on his turbulent professional wrestling life.
Suddenly started Twitter at the end of 2019.
After that, he opened his own accounts one after another on YouTube and TikTok. Now, as an influencer, he has gained high support from the younger generation who do not know anything about his active days. Background leading to the appointment of CM
Mr. Choshu’s first impression of Yogibo when it arrived at his home was that it was “like Andre’s pillow,” which would be nostalgic for wrestling fans at the time, but at the same time, it was compared to the comfort and convenience. I was professing sex on my Twitter. In this commercial, it is structured to increase awareness of “care methods” and “repair services” for customers who usually use Yogibo for a long time. We have decided to use her as an image character in a commercial.
In the past, five Yogibo users (Hajime Shacho, Rino Sashihara, Masahiro Ehara, Umi Asakura, Kamaitachi, * honorifics omitted) and former racehorse “Admire Japan” have appeared in commercials. The commercial featuring Admire Japan was selected as the “most impressive commercial” among all the commercials broadcast last year (14,052). (* Survey by CM Research Institute)
