Big Bear (ビッグ・ベア) is a wrestler from Alice Sprigs, Australia who sometimes takes on the personality of the masked villain Raiden (ライデンク).

Story (in the Fatal Fury Saga)
Raiden originally appeared in the first Fatal Fury as a large character wearing a blue wrestling suit and mask with a yellow lightning bolt down its center. In Fatal Fury 2, he appears in a black wrestling suit and is unmasked. In that form he assumes the persona of Big Bear.

The Big Bear persona is mainly used when he plays himself off as a fan favorite whereas the Raiden persona is mostly used if he plays himself off as a hated villain.

Raiden hails from Alice Springs, Australia, and is one of Geese Howard's henchmen, despite his friendship with Geese's enemy Terry Bogard.
