He says "Hey" a lot ("oi" means pretty much the same thing in Japanese as it does in English, right?). I realize that's probably part of the schtick, but is there a certain dialect or tone that's meant to convey?

I never knew before today that I wanted to watch a dvd featuring Toru Yano, Ishii, Jado, and Gedo hanging out in amusement parks and sports bars, but after watching that I want to see it more than anything else in the world.

it's common for scummy yakuza-tongue types to throw it around in sentences.

Doesn't Gedo do it a lot too? I recall someone mentioning Gedo makes a bunch of yazuka implications.

I think it was harperdc compared the way different people on the roster speak, the lower members of CHAOS speak with the Yakuza-type slang, lots of "oi"'s and rolling r's, Makabe does it a lot too.

This is why I have a hard time getting into Japanese wrestling.

Even if they just subtitled the promos, the on-screen graphics and the ring intros, I'd feel way more at home. The commentary being in Japanese I can live with.

They do English ring intros dude, have been for a little while now and most on screen graphics you will see are just "wrestler name vs. wrestler name".

For some reason I always used to rewind this moment time and time again on my VHS WrestleMania boxed set. I think it's the clotheline, followed by what sounds like one person laughing hysterically like a proto-Sheamus Guy, followed by the lines on commentary, ESPECIALLY Jesse's. Whatever the case, it makes me die laughing every time.

I remember this, commentary was so much better back then with guys like Ventura, Heenan, Perfect, Macho and Gorilla. Jesse's line slayed me though, just the delivery and choice of words were perfect.

That was always my favorite - it seemed that, no matter what, the heel commentator would find something to rag on Joey about when commentating opposite Gorilla.

3-man teams always sucked, but Macho Man at least was enthusiastic and put everything over.

Coachman was the worst. He pretty much sabotaged Joey Styles' bid to take over for Jim Ross as lead commentator on RAW.
