Akihito Terui (born August 27 1976), also known as Milano Collection A.T., is a Japanese professional wrestler.
Career
Terui made his debut in 2000 in Toryumon, and gained success. He later adopted the persona of Milano Collection A.T. (A.T. being his initials) to achieve greater success and attract attention from many, and upon his landing in Japan, he was the ace of Toryumon's T2P class. His gimmick is that of an Italian fashion aficionado/supermodel, wearing lavish coats and trunks and showing his outrageousness with an invisible dog named Mikeru. In mid 2006, he surfaced at the Texas Wrestling Academy in San Antonio,Tx, at the urging of WWE's Sho Funaki, and trained under Rudy Boy Gonzalez, learning American wrestling. Held the Texas Wrestling Entertainment TV title for 8 months. He has wrestled for many American companies who were attracted to his antics like: ECWA, Ring of Honor, and CHIKARA. His legitimacy as a wrestler was proven full-force in 2007 when he won New Japan Pro Wrestling's Best of the Super Juniors tournament.
He works for New Japan Pro Wrestling as a part of the R.I.S.E. faction. He competed in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling's (TNA) World X Cup as a part of Team Japan, winning his first and only singles match against Curry Man, gaining 2 points for his team, then competing at Victory Road in the third round, dominating early in the match but eventually getting eliminated.
