Rob Van Dam On The Huge Lesson He Learned From Tajiri

[@gibranmg]

Tajiri was a beast, his kicks were brutal, his selling was on point and his humor was fantastic. One of the best from his era.

[@michaeltaylor9033]

Facts kicks were brutal and he was a good striker very underated

[@TraphouseUnda2]

I kinda looked at him as a underrated jobber growin up but lately I been rewatchin ‘03 smackdown & he’s better than I remember

[@gngvr_4539]

His entrance music is so underrated!!

[@Locksmith92]

This little Vietnamese kid use to hang out with my kids 8 year old they use to wrestle and the kid did a sick tejeri.They call him Dough boy aka Duck Sauce...i swear they were hilarious...😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@yoholmes273]

Tajiri is easily one of the most UNDER RATED wrestlers of All- Time!

@@mrdude88 Only by kids in America who just don't know better. I don't remember ever a time that I did not love Tajiri. For me, from ECW to WWF/WWE Tajiri always was the tops

[@redzzder7951]

Taijiri is a true great. He is my all time favorite Japanese wrestler

[@BruceMichaelFilms]

They booked Tajiri strong back in the day. He had a competitive match with Taker on TV once.

[@joesant1943]

Agree for the time that it was Tajiri’s booking was good most of the time, even if it was on the comedy side some times you knew he could tear your head off with one kick.

[@MrM-u3h]

I remember him wasting Evolution in a match.

[@Rumble225-qe7fy]

I always thought Tajiri was an underrated performer I always found myself getting into his matches. His kicks he could make them look so real.

[@JSI82]

I was more pumped for Tajiri showing up in WWE than I was with DDP or Goldberg. Super exciting and fun, every undercard was made better by having him on it.

[@davegoldberg3282]

Taiji does so much nowadays to help young wrestlers and he was a huge influence to young stars of today.

[@Return2Kayfabe]

Really love Tajiri. His first wwf match was incredible.

I used to beat people ass with Tajiri on the GameCube back in the day

[@tyme4348]

Did he used to hold his neck and then blow green mist on the video game? Haha

Tajiri and steve blackman in a tag team Why didn't we have this???

[@vianneyrodriguez1477]

Tajiri is a Hall Of Famer.

[@MATTYMrMarijuana]

Man isn't Tajiri still goin? Legend

[@Its2D4Life]

Always loved Tajiri.

[@MBison-vm6gq]

Tajari needs to be in the Hall of Fame 😤

[@jiovanysoltero923]

To this day I consider Tajiri the greatest Wrestler from Japan that completely understood how to Work the crowd. I always preferred him over nakamura

[@KingRat71]

Keiji Muto

[@davegoldberg3282]

RVD & Swerve had an awesome match

[@gomdoripoo1]

I work for a pro wrestling promotion in South Korea called PWS and Tajiri has worked 3 shows for us and has held training sessions for our local talent. He is an absolute pro and loves pro wrestling.

[@elizabeth3280]

This reminds me of the Shawn Michael's shoot in the really early 2000s when he said that he thought RVD was really talented but needed o slow down as he did not have o show everything he has every match . It does make sense in that if every opponent no matter how good or bad is a challenging match up where all your stuff is used it would get dull or expected after a while

[@kwizzeh]

The huge difference between the ECW & indie style vs matches timed for TV really back in the 00s

[@user-em4el6rf5v]

Officially my new fav pod cast

[@KnowPhere]

Tajiri is one of greatest ever! Love him as the comedic relief or serious wrestler always entertaining.

[@TheSilentZ]

Tajiri was awesome and one of my all time favorites

[@tazmissionplex]

Tajiri is one of the only Japanese wrestlers to get over In wwe and have a decent career there

[@FLIK510]

4:07 if you just want to get to the point

[@markula_4040]

Tajiri tops my list of favorite Japanese wrestlers and I'm old enough that I did watch Muta and Liger in WCW, just prefer Tajiri. When he switched from trunks to long pants in ECW, it's like a switch went off and he went from a good performer to god tier. He also had a funny personality despite speaking little english.

[@DanielGarcia-us7tf]

Tajiri gave a real kick to Mil Muertes Ricky Banderas that rocked him to the core.

[@claytonjones8358]

Taijiri and Steve Corino had some good matches

[@kr2513]

Had no idea RVD had his own KZbin. Wish I could tell him I was at invasion 2001 and he was so nervous (or something) he missed his cue to point to himself as they said his name. 🔥 💨 It was a great time. Molly holly wore jeans and she had that dump truck 🫠 3rd row back it was a great show.

[@JUSTINCREDIBLEE]

I always wondered am I the only one who’s sees that wonderful thang (Molly dump truck)

[@joypadlad]

According to Cagematch, it was Rob vs. Christian in Korea in 2003 if that's the match he is talking about.

[@TheRealRVD]

Hmmm...ok. Thank you

[@SYratherripped]

I came here to post the same exact thing. Looks like the Whole F'n Show won by 5 star frog splash :)

[@rjvilla5228]

showtah behtah - words to live by

[@TheInhumanity]

I would like to see Tajiri return to challenge Cody Rhodes. Someone should book him for a final run, and use him as a part time attraction.

[@IamLegend32]

I was a huge Wrestling fan back in the day but never got a chance to see ECW until they went in PPV. First two ECW matches I ever saw was RVD vs Jerry Lynn, and Tajiri vs Super Crazy. It blew my f'n mind. 😊

[@minechaftgamer288]

The lesson is that Korean BBQ is salty? Not the puro wisdom from Tajiri I clicked for.

[@TraphouseUnda2]

Shorta Betta

[@drevandamva]

Rvd and Tajiri would’ve been a godlike tag team smh…. Then you add Sabu and Alfonso to the mix and aesthetically they would’ve looked cool together

[@JUSTINCREDIBLEE]

Damn you painted picture I wish we got

[@joecole6875]

Dude's got stories.

[@BDEisMe22_4]

RVD all that weed man. Trust the Japanese man.

[@aboynamedthump]

Finn and RVD 1 time!

[@juggalojupin8508]

Rob do you think Taijiri deserves to be in wwe hall of fame ??? I think Taijiri is such a underrated superstar

[@themondoshow]

I know rob is high but wtf

[@joefosh]

Tajiri looks like the dude from "Old Boy"

[@JVCKPOT]

Dom is a interesting lookin fella

[@joaopires1761]

He reminds me so much of Jason Sensation

[@JUSTINCREDIBLEE]

We need a cafe de one of kind fusion. They’ve been guest on each other shows but I mean like everyone on

[@SegaCDUniverse]

Funny enough, tajiri supposedly speaks perfect English and just kayfabes the accent to everyone lol

[@Bonelesssousage]

Another Deangelo , another terrible interview

[@JUSTINCREDIBLEE]

Tajiri spoke no English in only when it came to doing a job

[@Kingofb0ngstyle]

Shorter better

[@joe.limbus]

Woman: i like huge guys🫸 🫷 Tajiri: "Shorter better🤏"

[@clarity2115]

🤣🤣

[@MrZombiejoe]

Ultimate Warrior always thought Shortaaa Bettaaa!!!
