Masato Tanaka had all of the coolest moves in 1999 despite feuding with a guy who would power bomb you over the top rope through a table.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Why does no one do the Awesone Bomb anymore? That one shoulder gets you so much distance and it owns.

I'm going to guess it has a rep of being unsafe. I don't know if it actually is unsafe but it always looks gnarly as gently caress

Awesome Tanaka Matches are the matches that made me realize as a kid that wrestling is the coolest thing in the world. Watching a dude take a chairshot to the head and instead of falling just yell is still the sickest poo poo I’ve ever seen.

Hotstuff Hernandez does a version as a finish and I remember him absolutely spiking somebody with it.

I just like one shoulder variation bombs, back when Lance Archer was young he had a sick one.

Man, I haven’t thought about Hernandez in a while. Back in the day LAX was the coolest poo poo. TNAs tag division rocked.

Back on topic, I’m sad we never got an angle where Awesome and Tanaka put aside their differences and became a tag team. Can you imagine :allears:

It sucks. I had to take one in the old NWA-SW ring and he was generally known as someone who might hurt you. I can't speak for him now and would not want to besmerich his good wrasslin name so I'm going to assume he's better about it now

Edit: a bunch of my old wrasslin promotions videos are now on YouTube

If you like poorly (but lovingly) produced Texas Indy wrasslin from the 2000's it's just your thing.

He spiked multiple people with it, most notably Doug Williams:

He also gave a border toss into a pool to a girl in a music video for MVP, and in the shot they used she barely cleared the edge of the pool. No clue what the name of the song was nor whether the video still exists somewhere.

I think I saw Mercedes Martinez chuck Diamante like this onto somebody outside the ring pretty recently on RoH

It went about as well as these but at least there was a person catching

They definitely did it on Collision against Willow and Stat, and now I'm just sad remembering that short burst of a few weeks where it felt like they were going to do something with Mercedes and Diamanté on AEW TV and then they just disappeared again.

1997 Pride would have fed him to Mark Coleman as a make-good after Coleman jobbed to Takada and Mark Coleman might have literally eaten Dwayne. It would have been amazing to watch.

This is the face of a winner. This is what winning looks like.
On the other hand, he could have washed out of PRIDE and we could have gotten NJPW Rock, which would be bizzare.

Thank you, Prominence, for the Shinkiba tournament.

As long as there is orange and green felt, it is already Fujita’s theory.

Kino is like a hostage 😂 , but for some reason he appears after putting the tape on himself. Don’t worry, it’s a weak tape 😅👍
