We had a match for Samurai Tv once when NOAH traveled through Europe, I remember us both being very nervous, afterwards it turned out to be one of my favorite in my young career, sleep well Aoki-San.

Very saddened to hear about the passing of Atsushi Aoki. I had the honor of teaming with Aoki in the NTV Jr. Tag League back in 2007. #RestInPower my friend.

Aoki was like a big brother to me in the NOAH dojo. He took such great care of me & I learnt so much from him. He was a kind, witty and incredibly skilled man. I’m really devastated. RIP mate.
