Q1. Recently, at a DDT tournament, Masahiro Takanashi was hit by a powerful move during a match and suffered a serious cervical spinal cord injury. He was rushed to the hospital. Fortunately, the surgery was successful and he is said to be recovering smoothly, but it was a truly shocking event. So, I'd like to ask, Mr. Funaki, what are your thoughts on the frequent serious injuries and in-ring incidents that occur during matches in the world of professional wrestling? I'd also like to hear your thoughts on what measures the industry as a whole, and as individual wrestlers, should take to prevent such accidents from happening again, and what direction we should take going forward. Thank you very much.

Q2. When Mr. Maeda posted a video about falling, it caused a backlash. Maeda is making perfectly reasonable points, so I don't understand why it caused such a backlash. I don't understand why other wrestlers disagree. Having spent time with him, I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions, Mr. Funaki.

Q3. I have a question for Mr. Funaki. Recently, Akira Maeda talked about the importance of falling for professional wrestlers in a video. Some current wrestlers have responded with critical comments. In the past, trainees and wrestlers have suffered serious injuries or even death during practice or matches. How do you feel about Maeda's recent comments?
