"Noah Born"

Term used in Noah for anyone who graduated from the Noah dojo and debuted in Noah, whether or not they stayed with Noah for the duration of their career.

KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji are not "Noah born" (although it is a misconception that they are), having trained at and graduated in All Japan, Takashi Sugiura is a grey area having trained in the All Japan dojo, but making his debut in Noah.
The first true "Noah born" therefore, is Kotaro Suzuki, who debuted in Noah in December 2001 (he refers to himself as "the prodigal son").



"Noah born" include: 

~ Go Shiozaki
~ Shuhei Taniguchi
~ Atsushi Aoki
~ Eddie Edwards
~ Hitoshi Kumano
~ Kaito Kiyomiya
~ Junta Miyawaki
~ Yoshiki Inamura
~ Kinya Okada
~ Kotaro Suzuki
