[DIAMOND RING / TARU News] TARU announced that he wants to return to the ring and also declared the full revival of the VOODOO MURDERS.
This follows the news of “brother” YASSHI announcing his return to the ring at DIAMOND RINGS show on February 11th. YASSHI appeared a few months ago and wearing a VM shirt. It did seem odd for him to be promoting VM without the original man in charge in TARU. There were signs of a potential return for TARU, but nothing was concrete. Though today on January 21st, TARU held a press conference announcing he wants to return to the ring.
TARU appeared with an attorney at his side to discuss the reason why he has been gone for so long and that is because of the serious beating that Nobukazu Hirai sustained on May 29, 2011.
TARU was the prime suspect for the situation and was inevitably charged and had to pay a large fine and he said that he would refrain from competition indefinitely.
It has been almost a year and a half since TARU has been promoted in the press, but he has been spending a lot of his time with Nobukazu Hirai and his family. He also said that Hirai is currently in rehabilitation and is recovering considerably.
TARU said that the whole situation became a lot more serious than what it should have, but he wants to rebuild the VOODOO MURDERS. To make a place for Hirai to return to one day. No specifics were announced on when exactly he would be returning.
“brother” YASSHI though will be returning to the ring on DR’s show on February 11th and it seems that TARU will be in his corner. YASSHI currently does not have a match set as of yet, but he mentioned that “the lone wolf” Kazunari Murakami would make for a good addition to the team.
Kengo Nishimura now just going by Kengo, is formerly of Kou-Haku Pro Wrestling and other indy promotions, and has been appearing with YASSHI as of late. He is officially the third member of the new VM.
I don’t have the time to keep writing all the information that has been provided to me, but I will try and sum it up. There seems to be no ill-will between TARU and Hirai, I think most of us remember what happened back in May of 2011 and many thought that was a horrible act and that was the last we would see of the VOODOO MURDERS.
Minoru Tanaka and Masayuki Kono would only see a short time away from the ring, and then MAZADA would return after a longer stint away. TARU being the leader of the group ended up spending a year and now 9 months away from the ring. There is still no mention to when TARU aims to compete in the ring, but he has announced that he wants to return, potentially sooner than later.
TARU is still in communication with Hirai and his family in Kobe, Japan and indeed said that Hirai could potentially be returning to the ring as well. Hirai suffered a “acute subdural hematoma” which put him in a short term coma and significantly weakened his body during the time he was unable to do anything.
I have yet to hear of any real backlash/criticism to this announcement, but there might potentially be some fans against it. I guess now we wait and see what comes about with DR’s show on February 11th.

Oof, that name is tainted in my mind. I dunno about this. Puroresu Spirit also adds...
There is much to story, and a lot to translate, and I mean a lot.
From what I gathered Hirai got into it with a fan that night, and something happened. TARU retaliated against Hirai in which it helped trigger a pre-existing medical condition that was unknown at the time.
TARU was charged for the assault to Hirai and TARU stepped down from competing for an indefinite time.
Like I mentioned there is no idea on what kind of criticism may becoming, but TARU has done everything in his power to rectify the situation in every way.

Can we put an end to those Yakuza/All Japan cover up stories? They never made much sense to begin with.
