For over two decades now, The Japanese Buzzsaw has been giving fans true spectacle of in-ring technical wizardry. Tajiri could very well be the one with the most miles, out of everyone on this list.
From the time he began his career in 1994, Tajiri would travel any and everywhere the competition called. From Japan to WWE and everywhere in between, Tajiri is certainly known around the globe.
Most fans probably remember Tajiri best for his time with ECW. It was in 1998 when Tajiri was working in Mexico that Paul Heyman spotted him and immediately offered him a spot on the ECW roster.
Later on that same year, Tajiri made his debut and was welcomed by a standing ovation from the ECW faithful in Philly. That moment was sort of a catalyst for what would turn into a legendary career.

About the author
J. Carpenter
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
