==I. Who is Taiyo Kea?==
========================
You may know this ravaging Surfer dude as Manukea Mossman, one of the
stupidest names ever. He is currently employed with AJPW and is the
Master of the Hawaiian Smasher, which you probably know as 'TKO'. He is
a great worker in the ring and always does his best to put on
entertaining matches.

He uses a vast array of kicks, and a fairly basic Grappling move list.
Under his former guidance of Keiji Mutoh and Hiroshi Hase, he uses the
Shinning Wizard and Northern Light Suplex to the best possible degree.

Taiyo Kea is fairly young and has a very bright future main eventing in
AJPW.

His default in this game is begging you for a re-edit, which will be
posted (and most of you will just skip to).

==IV. Strategy==
================

General Strategy
================
Kea, in real life, is a good mix of grappling and striking. He has a
fairly decent rating in every category, so you be the judge on how you
would like to distribute his attacks...

Strikes
=======
Kea is good kicker, he has a rating of 7. You should use his mid kick
to keep distance and when they get in close, use his low kick.
Sometimes you can trick them into walking into your Thrust kick.

When you pick a dizzy opponent up from like an early A or B move, use
his [S] flying kneel kick to get the crowd going and to score some
extra hit points.

For his running attacks, the [S] Flying DDT is extremely useful, you
can sometimes just run at your opponent and do this, but don't do it to
often or they will start countering it with one of there higher
priority run counter moves.

Grapples
========
Once again, Kea is a very solid wrestler, nearly all his grapples are C
rated, and thus you have a fairly good chance of getting the moves off.

His Finisher cannot critical, but that's ok, no moves critical in real
life anyway (with the exception of D'Lo's Running Lyger Bomb on Droz).

His default grapples are just begging for you to Re-Edit them though...
I'll post them in the next section

High Flying Moves
=================
Taiyo Kea Doesn't really do any in a real life match, why should you do
them in this game?

Opponent Down Moves (Submissions and Opponent Down Strikes)
===========================================================
Usually these moves are used to enhance the effectiveness of your
finisher, your finisher in this case is the Hawaiian Smasher. This move
effects the neck of your opponent, none of his down attacks do anything
that effects the neck region, but use his soccer ball kick just to wear
your opponent down, and use the Arrogant Pin right after the Hawaiian
Smasher to obviously pin your opponent.

Your best bet is to just pick your opponent up and do one of your
standing [S] moves.

===============
==VI. Re-Edit==
===============
Here is the most important thing of this FAQ, the Re-Edit

First things first, go load Taiyo Kea default in the AJPW section (he
is the guy with blonde hair, red tights and black leg guard shoes and
red padding)

Next, you will need these D/L moves:

Kea Rush
Shinning Wizard
Corner Shinning Wizard
High Speed Dragon Screw

==========
Appearance
==========
Stance: Strong (as far left as the choices go, also known as first
choice)
Size: Medium
Head: 58
Chest: (M) Bare (first choice)
Waist: (M) Short Tights (first choice)
Upper Arm: (M) Elbow Pad (3rd Choice... 2 to the right from the first
choice)
Lower Arm: (M) Wrist Band + Elbow Pad (5th Choice, 4 to the right from
the first choice)
Hand: Bare (First Choice)
Thigh: Bare (First Choice)
Knees: Leg Guard Shoes (21st Choice, 20 to the right from the first
choice)
Feet: Leg Guard Shoes (8th choice, 7 to the right from the first choice)

Make his hair black: (1,1,1) (2,2,2) (3,3,3) (6,6,6)
His Elbow pads Black: (same as above)
His wrist tape white
His tights red
His Leg Guard Shoes all red

Good Job, now that looks like the current Taiyo Kea

================
Skills/Perimeter
================
(Optional) Special Skill: Stardom (the crowd cheers him along and his
matches are fairly heated)
Ascend Speed: Slow (he doesn't really go to the top rope)

Parameter - Offense Parameter - Defence
=================== ===================
Punch.............5 Punch.............6
Kick..............8 Kick..............7
Suplex............5 Suplex............6
Submission........3 Submission........6
Stretch...........5 Stretch...........5
Power.............5 Flying............6
Instant Power.....7 Crush.............6
Arm Power.........6 Vs. Lariat........7
Technical.........6 Technical.........5
Rough.............5 Rough.............5
Ground............3 Ground............4

Basically the default was good, but Kea deserves a few more points here
and there, the ones I changed were: Kick, Instant Power, Arm Power for
offense and Submission, Vs Lariat for defense

Point Total: 157

=====
Moves
=====
I will only list the changes I made, all the rest can be found above:

Running to Corner: Corner Shinning Wizard
Standing Front Grapple A: High Speed Dragon Screw
[S]Standing Front Grapple Up + B: Kea Rush (add on voice 2 also)
[F]Standing Front Grapple Left/Right + B: Hawaiian Smasher (voice 2)
[S]Standing Front Grapple Down + B: Shinning Wizard (voice 2)
Standing Front Grapple A+B: Northern Light Suplex
[S]Corner Grapple Left/Right + B: 2nd Rope Reverse Splash

And there you have it, your up to date Taiyo Kea re-edit, and 100x
better then the default.
