After the meeting, I told Mr. Wrestler about it and he said "Eh." Underneath the mask, you could sense the respect for his father.) ~ [[Rhythm Item]] description for [[Ringside]], ''Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+''</ref>. When his father was asked if he does save the articles, he simply nodded with an affirmative sounding grunt<ref>"When the wrestler's father was asked if he saved news articles about his son, he simply nodded and made an affirmative-sounding grunt." ~ [[Rhythm Item]] description for [[Ringside]], ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix''</ref>.

==Trivia==
*In the North American version, "[[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven Fever)#Wrestler's Weekly|Wrestler's Weekly]]" reffers to the Wrestler as "Wrestler X." However, this could also be interpreted as him not having a name, as the year is written as an ambiguous 20XX.
*The Wrestler had a couple cameos outside of the ''[[Rhythm Heaven Series|Rhythm Heaven]]'' series:
**Along with the [[Reporter]], he appears in a cameo in [https://www.mariowiki.com/Game_%26_Wario Game & Wario].
**In [https://www.mariowiki.com/WarioWare_Gold WarioWare Gold] He is mentioned in [https://www.mariowiki.com/Mr._Sparkles Mr. Sparkles]'s character card.
**He, along with Reporter, appears as a Trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii'', and as a Spirit in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. Their spirit battle takes place on the Boxing Ring stage, where the Wrestler is represented by a Libre Pikachu, the reporter is represented by a Yuri Kozukata assist trophy (a photographer from the Fatal Frame series), and the player is easy to launch during the fight.

The Wrestler is a campion of wrestling, and agreed to take an interview after an important match at the Rhythm Arena for the "Wrestling 20XX"[1] newspaper. He defended his title in 15 minutes with his Z-Suplex special move[2] and was subsequently interviewed. The Reporter asked him various questions, such as how it feels to defend his title, what the turning point of the match was, what strategy he plans to use for the next opponent, and one from the fans, to all of which he simply responded with "Eh." The Reporter then responded with "Whoa, you go, big guy!", prompting the Wretler to strike a pose, before ending the interview. Alongside her, there are other reporters who request poses to take pictures of.

During the interview, they received a statement that the Wrestler's father was saving all his articles. When asked about it after the interview, the Wrestler responded with "Eh.", which displayed the respect he has towards his father[3].

In Songbird Remix in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the Reporter wears a long yellow jacket and a yellow cap with a bird on it, while the Wrestler wears yellow, and his mask is changed to yellow mask that resembles a bird, and wings on his back.
