After disappearing without a trace one month ago, Daisuke Sasaki has reemerged in public to tell the media what had happened to him. He contacted Tokyo Sports asking for one of their reporters to meet him at a popular conveyer belt sushi restaurant. The reporter arrived in the middle of the day to find Sasaki drinking and also sporting a bandage over his left eye. Sasaki revealed he had undergone surgery for superior oblique muscle paralysis in that eye because he’s been suffering from double vision. It is a similar to the eye injury that Tetsuya Naito had to deal with last year. Sasaki told the reporter he first noticed double vision three years ago and when it is at its worst he would see four or even eight faces on his opponent while wrestling them.
According to Sasaki he had the surgery on 6th February and quit wrestling in order to do it. That’s right, Sasaki is claiming he is now retired! The reporter figured out that Sasaki could be able to wrestle again in about a month, based on Naito’s path of recovery. However Sasaki is in a depressed mood. He says he has no place in DDT and nobody from the company ever contacts him (KANON has been constantly trying to reach him ever since he disappeared). Retired from pro wrestling, Sasaki now plans to move to America to start a second life in Hollywood where he can work part time at a McDonalds. But if he is going to live in the USA, he wants to have one more match. He is asking DDT to book him on the “DDT GOES HOLLYWOOD” show in LA on 30th March. Sasaki has no interest in getting involved with the “ALL STAR JR FESTIVAL 2023” on 1st March because he has no reason to cooperate with Hiromu Takahashi. However if El Desperado ever wins back the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title then Sasaki is open to having one more match in Japan.
While Sasaki is recovering from surgery he is not doing much to stay active. He is not allowed to exercise at the moment so he just hangs around in the sushi restaurant. He also quit Twitter and uninstalled the app because his life feels better without it. The reporter noticed his account is still active and Sasaki’s reasoning is word for word identical to what the MMA fighter Mirai Asakura said when he quit Twitter earlier this week.
