One of the best, very high on my list.

Top 5 but bear in mind my rankings only go as far back as 2004

Possibly the third most important guy in NJPW history after Inoki and Hashimoto.

>>19621482
In Japan second to Anoki
In the US most don't care.

>>19621482
Second greatest babyface in the history of the sport

yea pretty much, after inokism petered out and nooj went thru its dark ages, tanahashi was there to will the company forward, and yea it wasn't entirely ALL him but the crowd did love the guy and cemented him as the baby(f)ACE of the company

>>19621482
He threw it all away because another company threatened to have a tantrum
That is rough

Why does this board love Tanahashi but hate Eddie? Tanahashi is like 5"5.
