The pride he sells those first kicks with, the disbelief he shows when his inability to deal with Tamura’s approach sinks in, the desperate grip he clutches the ropes with, and the way he throws all there is the moment he finds an opening.
Mastery of the Give/Take art.
Super Vader vs Kiyoshi Tamura (UWF-I 6/10/94)
Destined to be a night for the underdogs, for Tamura to start his climb, to overcome the monster—at least until Vader thought it was enough.
Few had the understanding of the art Vader had, and it shows in performances like these.
Dragon Kid x Milano Collection A.T. Some highly unique & creative Toryumon action, particularly Milano’s work on Dragon’s arm, all building to the dramatic finish. Awesome stuff. (4.24.2004) 🐉
Rick in COTW. He was playable only on RB2, on Fatal Fury First Contact and on SVC Card Fighters Clash both for Neo Geo Pocket. One of the best chara with MOTW Terry at pressing with feint cancels. Here's an old set with a player good at using his dodge and combo his Howling Bull.
SUWA x Genki Horiguchi. The NWA World Welterweight Title, with lineage dating all the way back to El Santo in the 1940’s & later part of the J-Crown, is up for grabs in a Toryumon scorcher from Iwate Prefectual Gymnasium. (3.25.2000) 🐉
In a promotion built on blood, fire & barbed wire, The Headhunters stood out from the W★ING pack with their breathtaking displays of agility for men of their size. ☠️
Do FIXER vs. Shin M2K vs. Italian Connection vs. Crazy MAX 4-Way-Trios-Elimination-UWA-6-Man-Title-Match
2003 Toryumon was the blueprint i swear this match is the most batshit insane thing ive ever seen
A wonderful, yet somewhat scary, celebration for Fujiwara's 77th year, which is what makes it extremely fitting for the man of the hour.
The match is as equally triumphant as it is evil, which is the exact tone you'd expect for a match that starts with Fujiwara across Murakami.
