Biography[]
Kinnikuman[]
Motorman is first introduced in the series during the Survivor Match for the Kinniku Throne Arc as a member of Team Zebra, acting as the Second Guard of the team after Kinnikuman Zebra hired him to be a member of the team for a large fee.
During the second round, Team Zebra would have to fight against Team Kinnikuman. Motorman would be the second to fight, fighting against Terryman after The Manriki was killed by Warsman. Motorman would start the fight by beating down Terryman, using his electrical hands to shock him and his blinding him with intense light. This would have beaten Terryman but Bikeman (Really Ramenman in disguise) gave Terryman advice to aim for Motorman's legs.
Motorman would leap onto the corner post of the ring and stab Terryman with his drill, launching him out of the ring where Bikeman caught him. Everyone on Team Zebra began to question if Bikeman was the real Bikeman until another Bikeman appeared with the medal that Kinnikuman Zebra gave him. Motorman would then leap at the fake Bikeman and drill off his disguise, revealing his identity as Ramenman.
After both Bikeman and Parthenon argued over which of the two would fight Ramenman, Motorman pointed out that he was still in the ring and would fight Ramenman. Motorman would use his drill to stab Ramenman repeatedly, making him bleed all over his body, however, Ramenman used this to unleash his bloodlust, he would leap over Motorman, breaking his drill with a kick before using his Camel Clutch to pull Motorman in half, killing him.
