One of the characters you will meet is named Dragon-Shi. He is a martial artist who uses bo staves.
His origin can be found in this clip.
Two of the greatest talkers of all time, Gary Hart and Gordon Solie, lay out a match between “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes and The Great Kabuki.

Inspiration.
