Toryumon /Dragon Gate He debuted in the 9th term of T2P as Henry III Sugawara, a Prince character. He joined with and eventually with Anthony W. Mori and Phillip J. Fukumasa, forming the Royal Brothers unit in T2P. The gimmick was that all three wrestlers were royal princes. However, the Royal Brothers would never make much of an impact. Fukamasa retired almost immediately after T2P closed, and Sugawara spent most of his time back in Mexico while Mori wrestled in Toryumon.
When he finally came to Toryumon himself, he was courted by heel stable Aagan Iisou. Although he initially refused the request to join, he would eventually betray Mori and ally with Aagan. He and Mori would feud, with the finish coming in a hair vs hair match. Sugawara lost the match, but escaped losing his hair.
While a member of Aagan Iisou, he regularly teamed with
Shuji Kondo and brother YASSHI. This team would continue for some time.All the members of Aagan Iisou were fired from Dragon Gate on December 31st, 2004, for controversial and mostly unexplained reasons.
dragondoor Sugawara had been hit the hardest by the firing of Aagan Iisou, and he did not resurface in the wrestling world until dragondoor was announced. He rekindled his alliance with Kondo and YASSHI.
El Dorado When El Dorado started, Sugawara was allied with two rival factions - his old friends in Aagan Iisou, and an upstart heel group called STONED, lead by KAGETORA. Sugawara spent the first few months of El Dorado trying to play both sides. In the end, he would betray both Aagan Iisou and KAGETORA, backstabbing Aagan and kicking KAGETORA out of STONED to take the leadership of it himself.
During the roster restructuring, Sugawara was named one of the four leaders of the promotion, alongside Kondo, YASSHI and former Aagan member
Torou Owashi . Sugawara would build a faction containing most of the members of STONED. It was named HELL DEMONS. Sugawara would lead HELL DEMONS for several months before being kicked out of the stable with little fanfare by Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei.Currently, Sugawara is allied with, but not actually a member of, Torou Owashi's faction "Animal Planets". His participation is causing dissention within the Animal Planets, with Bear Fukuda in particular being distrustful of Sugawara.
