Sasuke's passing the torch to Shinzaki, good for him.

..... isn't Jinsei Shinzaki still part of Keiji Mutoh's BATT group?

[Hisaharu Tanabe]

As far as I know, he never left Michinoku.

Except for his stint as Hakushi.

Wow.
And I am leaving it at that

Okay..... when I first heard of BATT (weren't they also called Cross Wizards?) it was sizing up to be some kind of inter-promotional wrestlers group..... I'm sure I heard/read that Hayabusa was being scouted for membership once..... so Shinzaki could have been in MPro and part of BATT as well.

Anyways, I wish Great Sasuke the best in his duties in government, and congratulations to Shinzaki on his new position as president of Michinoku Pro (just don't go to Mutoh for advice).
