I'm looking for an old Japanese movie I watched years ago about a typical frustrated salary man who starts training and becomes a masked fighter in some local federation, does anyone know the title?

Searched in Japanese and found two.
反則王 is actually a Korean movie with a famous dude from Host and Parasite and other movies.
Mask de 41 is a Japanese movie.
Both involve salarymen becoming masked wrestlers.

If I can interest you in the exact same plot except he becomes a tokusatsu hero instead of a wrestler, Takeshi Miike's Zebraman. Also the backstory for Skullomania in Street Fighter EX, but that's neither here nor there.

this no-budget mockumentary made by shindy wrestlers in their spare time is surprisingly one of the best wrestling movies I've ever seen

My Dad is a Heel Wrestler. It's a cute family movie where this kid doesn't know his dad is a masked bad guy wrestler and after he finds out he lies to his friends and says his dad actually the heroic ace wrestler. Stars actual wrestlers from New Japan Pro Wrestling and they even held a special match with them all as their movie characters.

If he was a heel and his outfit had a "secret" compartment on its chest that he used to store various cheating devices and the last scene of the movie was him having a six-star tokyo dome match that spilled over into the crowd with a hot young vanilla babyface, I don't remember.
