Mr. Fuji was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2007, for his 30 + years of service to the wrestling business. He was inducted by none other than Don Muraco, his partner in crime (fighting) from Fuji Vice. Mr. Fuji accepted the distinction in a wheelchair, as a result of 9 knee operations. At this time, he was retired from the wrestling business, but he loved his return to the big stage.
In conclusion, we say that while Mr. Fuji may be gone, he will most certainly never be forgotten.
