Masaru Tobita, better known as Survival Tobita, is a Japanese professional wrestler who worked for Saitama Pro Wrestling Company.
Career
Survival Tobita started as a jobber for Pro Wrestling Crusaders. Since its collapse, he has wrestled for various companies in Japan and Mexico including FMW, Michinoku Pro, DDT, Onita Pro, and CMLL Japan. He is also the owner of SPWC, Saitama Pro Wrestling Company. Survival Tobita is most known for his matches in Saitama Pro Wrestling Company where he wrestles hardcore matches, usually on mats, against various monsters from around the universe (usually played by Naoshi Sano). Tobita often sits down after his match and cuts long promos while the fans save their seats and exit the building.
Tobita's most famous matches were against Mokujin Ken (KEN THE BOX). Mokujin Ken was a tree-like figure based on the character Mokujin from the Tekken video game series. Because of Ken's super human strengths, all of their bouts were basically squashes with Ken easily winning in minutes via knockout.
