Without speaking any English, “The Japanese Buzzsaw”, Yoshihiro Tajiri got himself over in both the original ECW and the WWE. With a high skilled moveset and undeniable charisma, it can be argued that Tajiri was not given the proper forum to prove his worth in the WWE, but he always got a pop everywhere he went.
