Rate The Wrestler- Day 118 - The Great Muta (Keiji Mutoh)
 

Yo, what's happening everyone, Helmsphere. The Innovator of the Rate The Wrestler has returned after turning 20 yesterday, but who cares about that...anyways, Funky picked K-Dawg, or better known as Konnan...Who didn't fair too well and scored a 69, which ties him with Justin Credible...

Anyways, I get to pick who the wrestler of the day is, and this man, was a man I remember as a kid, and have seen recently in the past few years, The Man is a legend in Japan and maybe even in America, he is the Great Muta!!!

If his such a legend how come i never heard of him ¬¬

oh and late happy b-day.

Well, we was sorta a regular in WCW in the early 90's since WCW had a agreement with New Japan Pro Wrestling...He also returned in 2000 and won the WCW Tag Titles for one night with Vampiro

96 easy

Come on. Everybody has heard of Keiji Mutoh.
:shifty:


Uh-oh. I think Helmsphere is on crack.
:shifty:

10, he's freaking amazing.

hey if nobody else votes, he scores a 100.

And late 80's.

EVERYONE who isn't a casual wrestling fan should know who Muta is...think of Tajiri, but with face paint and 100 x's better.

sounds cool.

Ring ability: 10
Ring presence: 10
Overness: 10
Work rate: 10
Politics: 10
Personal Bias: 10
Charisma: 10 (he was breathing mist long before your Kwangs and Tajiris)
Mic skill: N/A
Overall rank: 10

Now here's a guy who definitely deserves a <b>10</b>.

9.999999 (so close to a 10 but I can't do it simply because I haven't seen as much of him as I have the other 3 or 4 guys I've gave a 10 to. I've seen enought o know he's amazing, but not enough to say he's perfect.)

Holy Shit..

I just searched this guy up on Yahoo and now i know who he is.

Ill give him an 8

10

10.

I'd give him an 11 if I could.

I know who he is, I just havent seen enough Muta to comment.

He's probably one of the top 4 or 5 workers in the history of the industry to be entirely truthful.

That might be kind've pushing it...defiantely top ten though.

Might be pushing it, but I'll stand by it.

1. Shawn Michaels/Bret Hart (tie)
2. Kurt Angle
3. Tully or Dynamite
4. Either Brian Pillman, Malenko or Muta


So yeah he's at least in the top 8, i'd put him probably at 5 or 6 personally. This is from a pure in ring stand point of course.

Where is Flair in all of this? :-\

He is light years ahead of Pillman and defiantely better than Malenko, Tully, and Muta.

10 with ease.

I mean come on.. He gets a 10 off his mist ability alone :)

10

And out of the 10,000 wrestlers out there using the shinning wizard... his is still the best.

I'll be kidding myself if I gave Muta anything less than an 10.

How about the Great Sasuke for a future, if not, tomorrow's poll?

In terms of In-Ring Talent....Malenko, Muta are better then Flair, even in his prime....in terms of, things they have done in there Career, Flair, is at the top of the list...It all just depends how you judge things...

Also...Muta is awesome, and yes he is better then Tajiri, but he's not that much better as far as in ring Talent is concerned....which is basically the main thing people actually judge this one....

Muta v.s. Hase 92'

nuff' said

Well, It's All Japan weekend here on Rate The Wrestler and yes, The Great Sasuke will Tomorrow RTW, and a the winner of a poll to be hosted tomorrow....Rumored Choices I'm planning on throwing on there are Taka Michinoku, Gran Hamada, Jinsei Shinzaki (Am I spelling that right) Terry Boy (His other name slips me at the moment, Dick Togo, Masato Tanaka and Yugi Nagaga (sp?)

I love Flair to death, I'd probably put him at 10 with Curt Hennig at 9. If the whole top 10 were my opinion alone, this is how my top 10 guys would look. (Hemi and Funky, hope you don't mind, delete my list if you'd like.) Bare in mind though that my list is off of my enjoyment of their in ring work, no accomplishment, name value, backstage problems influence the list.

1. Shawn Michaels
1. Bret Hart
3. Kurt Angle
4. Tully Blanchard
5. Dynamite Kid
6. Dean Malenko
7. Great Muta
8. Brian Pillman
9. Curt Hennig
10. Ric Flair

Runners up would be guys like (I'll do 5 runner ups in no particular order), Ted Dibiase, Owen Hart, Arn Anderson, Bruno Sammartino, and Bob Backlund.

If he's not top 10 it's a travesty and your all racists!

*Uses politcal correctness to get him in :shifty: *

He's good, but he's no bigger than alex wright to the regular fan.

If he can get 9's and 10's then I really feel sorry for Hogan.

9.5.

Alas, I must say the same. I hang my head in shame. :nono:
