Ah, here I can admit fault. You are, indeed, correct here. Well done.

Sorry to be off topic, but is the "Lord" title something in his organization or some kind of government title?

Keith R. Kernspecht: Yes, I was known by two titles. They named me 'Lord Keith' because I have British ancestors, and 'Strangler Keith' because I used to finish my opponents by choking them. I was quite strong at that time and one of first modern power-lifters in Northern Germany. My specialty were dumb bell flies with more than 150 lbs. in each hand!

It might be just a bad translation but that organisation is famous for its ... weird ... titles
This is the title Keith's master gave to himself

Schoolboyish humour I know...but...that picture...really?

A dude twice his size blindsided him, took him down and hit him a few times. Then Cheung got up and taught the rest of a several hour seminar. Though Emin very clearly had control for that engagement, I wouldn't call that an ass kicking.
Also that happened in what, the 80's? Is that really the last time the whole org did anything of note?
And as a disclaimer, I don't do TWC. Don't particularly care for it it either.
