well basicly he is one of my favourite wrestlers of all time. the guy was just so cool. he had about 4 moves but his headbutt was sooo cool. and his entrance music rocked, whats everyones feelings on "the danger man".

He's one of my favorite early garbage wrestlers. One of the first deathmatch wrestler with little to none regard for his own health, highly influencing today's madmen like Kasai or Necro. Except for the headbutts his offense looked like shit, but he was very entertaining when he got his ass kicked. His early BJW matches are legendary and helped a lot to put BJW on the map in '96. Tarzan Goto slicing his arm open with a shard of glass is still one of the grossest stunts ever done in a wrestling ring, and that was in '97. His IWA work is also worth checking out, both of his matches at KOTDM '95 were really good.

he had a few good matches in w*ing back in 93 also. i believe he was the first wrestler to take bumps into plate glass and thumbtacks. i gotta say he easily stole the show at kotdm 95. his match against ono is easily a top 5 best match in the 2nd era of garbage wresting.
i wonder what hes up to these days, last i heard he was in onita fmw main eventing in no rope barbed wire matches.

the duel of the wilds match is ok, the fire spots are pretty insane. but i think fmw had better nrbw matches back in the day...
