Tony Atlas hypes his upcoming match with "martial arts expert" Atsushi Onita. No one told him about this. He will take the challenge, but he feels like he should have been part of the decision-making process to bring him in. I don't think that's too unreasonable. He thinks there is some type of conspiracy going on. "IIII DOOOONNNNN'TTTTTT LIIIIIKE IIIIIIITTTTT"

The cool, calm, and collected Tony Atlas is gone, replaced by a paranoid maniac who's being forced into the ring with the "Frontier Martial Arts expert" and most dangerous man in wrestling. Despite not knowing his name this is a really effective way by Atlas of getting Onita over.

The interviewer says how Tony Atlas now has perhaps his toughest challenge, a newcomer to the ICW, the Japanese Frontier Martial Arts expert, Atsushi Onita. Atlas says that no-one talked anything over with him then all of a sudden he receives a phone call saying he’s got to wrestle this guy? He’s a Martial Arts expert, he’s supposed to be a champion in Japan and now he’s coming over here to attack him? It’s not fair, but because he is the champion, he is going to face him. As champion, he feels that when they discussed his title, the challenger, he should have been there. He should now more about this man who he is going to step in the ring with. He knows nothing about Karate, he is a wrestler and this man is the most dangerous thing in professional wrestling today! Everyone thinks it’s funny, they think they’ve got him upset, that Onita is going to get the title. He doesn’t like it one bit and if he finds out who signed him to this match…

 

Another strong Atlas interview. I’m imagining that Onita is pretty much an unknown at this stage, but Atlas gets the point across that he is both a dangerous man and a credible threat to his title. I also like how he sticks to his character (‘because he’s the man, he’ll face anybody’) even if the thinks someone is trying to screw him over. No trying to pussy foot out of the match like some heel champions would try to do.
