The new Hirohito character that has been alluded to on RAW will be for Kenzo Suzuki. Based on the vignette that aired, there are some people in Japan who feel that this angle will backfire huge to the point where WWE may not be able to return to Japan since it could potentially offend some Japanese right wing politicians who will feel that it is mocking Emperor Hirohito.

Right now the plan is for Hirohito to debut on the 5/10 RAW from San Jose and they are also toying with the idea to have him be accompanied by a bodyguard. According to sources, the company has contacted "one of the bigger stars in industry for the role."
