Takayuki Mori (森 隆行 Mori Takayuki?, born October 9, 1976 in Matsuyama-shi, Ehime, Japan) is a retired Japanese professional wrestler, better known by the ring name Anthony W. Mori. He is best known for working for Dragon Gate where he is a one time Open the Brave Gate Champion, one time Open the Owarai Gate Champion and a two time Open the Triangle Gate Champion with BxB Hulk & Super Shisa and Milano Collection AT & YOSSINO.

Before entering the Toryumon dojo, Mori was an accomplished scholar, graduating with a law degree from Ehime University.

Mori debuted with the Toryumon T2P class in 2000 under his real name. The following year, he became KENtaro Mori, "Barbie's boyfriend", and the year after that, he switched over to his current gimmick of Anthony W. Mori, a royal prince.

Aside from a stint under his real name in 2006, when he became a member of Tozawa-juku for six months, Mori's character has not changed greatly since his debut. In 2002, upon taking on the royal prince character, he formed the Royal Prince Brothers unit with Junya Fukumasa and Takuya Sugawara, who were renamed to - respectively - Phillip J. Fukumasa and Henry III Sugawara. However, the group would go on hiatus at the end of the year when Fukumasa left wrestling and Sugawara returned to Mexico for more training. He would spend 2003 with various alignments, most notably the Italian Connection (Milano Collection A.T. & YOSSINO). His best friend Ryo Saito also betrayed him that year to join Do FIXER.
