Japan had a lot of promotions in the early 2000's.

He might not have been geriatric, but something seems... wrong about that age. And what I mean is, if he's 38 in 2002, that means when Dino Bravo did the pushup challenge, it would have made Tenta about 16 - 17 with a full mountain man beard and already rocking heavy male pattern baldness.*

Edit: bad math on my part. I don't know why I was thinking 2012 when I did that, even though I even wrote the correct year. My apologies.
