ECW on Sci-Fi


Old School Thursday: Tajiri

Posted in ECW Alumni, The Show on October 18th, 2007

Yoshihiro Tajiri is one of the greatest, and most under rated, wrestlers to ever grace the squared circle. His time in ECW highlights some of his best work and are frankly some of the best matches to ever be held in the world’s most famous bingo hall.

The best Tajiri video circulating right now is this bloodbath against another underrated wrestler, Steve Corino. Just about two minutes in Tajiri hits a brain buster on the walkway which looked particularly brutal. At around 5:46 you’ll see the best table shot ever.

Wow. There was more blood in that match than in all the Friday the 13this combined.

Less bloody but just as awesome is Tajiri vs Jerry Lynn. At 5:32 Tajiri stands on Lynn’s groin!

Here’s an indy match where the Japanese Buzz saw wrestled Low-Ki of TNA. The announcing is sub par but the action is great. Low-ki has a rep for working “stiff” and Tajiri schools this punk on how a professional works:

And finally here’s Tajiri vs Super Crazy vs Little Guido with the whole F.B.I., it’s insane and not just because of the addition of Super Crazy:

Now those matches were old school. Next week we’ll look at tag team action with The Eliminators.
