Isami Kodaka (木高 イサミ, Kodaka Isami, born September 27, 1981)[1][2][3] is a Japanese professional wrestler, currently signed to Pro-Wrestling Basara (Basara). He originally started his career in the Kaientai Dojo (K-Dojo) promotion in July 2002, but later left the promotion to become a freelancer, before signing with Union Pro Wrestling (Union Pro) in 2005. Through Union Pro's working relationship, Kodaka also began working for Big Japan Pro Wrestling (BJW), where he adopted his current, hardcore wrestling-based style. Kodaka remained affiliated with Union Pro until the promotion folded in October 2015, after which he became a founding member of Pro-Wrestling Basara (Basara).
Kodaka is currently in his fourth reign as the Union Max Champion, and his second reign as BJW Deathmatch Heavyweight Champion, while also being a former one-time KO-D Openweight Champion and three-time DDT Extreme Champion. He is also known as one half of the tag team Yankii Nichokenju (ヤンキー二丁拳銃, Yankī Nichōkenjū, "Yankii Pistols Akimbo") with Yuko Miyamoto. The two are former one-time All Asia Tag Team Champions, two-time BJW Tag Team Champions, one-time KO-D Tag Team Champions and one-time Wave Tag Team Champions and have also won the Saikyo Tag League three times. Kodaka has also won both the BJW Tag Team Championship and the Saikyo Tag League once with Masashi Takeda.
