1. Man the difference in athleticism on those high fly flows is wild to see.

2. That G1 2018 final is one of the best matches of all time

3. Prime Tana might have the best physique in wrestling

4. Insane how much Ryohei Oiwa looks like a young Tanahashi

5. Love the call back, didn’t know at the time as G1 17 was before my time. Always great to hear High Energy too

6. Man I love red shoes so much

7. You know what I miss the most from this? The Red Shoes leap. That man used to FLY

8. Maaaaan, Tanahashi is so cool

9. Perfection

10. How about that athleticism from Red Shoes!

11. Please provide content warning for the presence of Kevin Kelly. So unpleasant to listen to.

12. Triple high fly flow is fucking sick

13. He still is but goddamn was he been more beautiful before. Stupid sexy Tanahashi.

14. Maybe this is just me, but can we point out how cool of a visual of Tanahashi’s blood trenching a bit on his hair? Coming out looking like a damn gladiator

15. I don’t know why I’m crying.

16. I wanted to rep him, as he is my favourite and in 2014 – 2015 I got my NJPW lion mark hoodie. Worn it so much… decided when he calls it I’ll call it on the hoodie. Bittersweet because he was an amazing wrestler who carried the banner for NJPW amazingly.

    He’s slowing down and has not been able to do what he once did but his reign followed by his being a support for Okada’s rise was special.

    He’s the one that once gone, NJPW won’t be the same.

17. Jesus christ, HFF has to be one of if not the most painful thing you can take in wrestling. Just a barrel chested, meaty boi Tana soaring through the sky and just smacking the ever living fuck out of your soul with his full body weight. I cringe every time i see a clip of that second(standing) HFF on Ibushi.

18. You know what I love about that last one? That ibushi doesnt turn himself randomly while on the ground so tana can hit a clean high fly. Tana has to turn mid air. Perfection

19. Is Tana vs Ibushi the greatest match of all time? There’s a VERY good case.
