Kai Kishi has been on fire the past few years. No debate. The dude seems to be everywhere and I think it's safe to say he's officially a household name at this point. His clips in Kev Perez's indie video, LORE definitely stood out amongst the hard-hitting cast, and Perez just dropped 20 minutes of raw clips to prove it.
The battles, the close calls, the ones that got away—it's all here. We love this stuff. Take a look:
While Kai leads the charge here, we also see clips from Daniel Scales, Brandon Starr, Christian Henry, Tre Williams, Ish Cepeda, Ryan Carrell, Julain Restrepo, John Lane, Gabriel Fortunato, Lui Elliot and Yosef Ratleff. Need a reminder at just how stacked the LORE cast was? Check it below.
The LORE lineup: Adrian Adrid, Art Cordova, Blake Carpenter, Brandon Starr, Christian Henry, Cordano Russell, Daniel Scales, Eric Iwakura, Flo Mirtain, Franky Villani, Gabriel Fortunato, Ish Cepeda, Jake Hayes, Javon Goodman, Jeremy Leabres, John Lane, Jonny Hernandez, Julian Restrepo, Kai Kishi, Kai Shimakage, Kenny Stanley, Kyle Walker, Lui Elliot, Mike Wine, Nikolai Piombo, Robert Neal, Ron Parker, Ronnie Kessner, Ryan Carrell, Sean O’Conner, Shane Heyl, Tanner Burzinski, Thomas Dritsas, TJ Harris, TJ Rogers, Tre Williams, Trent Mcclung, Wacson Mass, Willie Wilson and Yosef Ratleff.
To say Kevin Perez has been staying busy the last few years is a total understatement. LORE was awesome and we can only imagine what he has up his sleeve for 2026. Here's to the new year!
