Shinsuke back as a Babyface, back in his old "Strong Style" gimmick, so a render change is needed as well. His old theme song also came back.

I'm not too big of a Shinsuke fan, But even I popped for it. It was my childhood for real.

Can I make a suggestion? With the wrestler deaths, like the releases, can you put the years of them, like 2025, 2024, more?
