There was never anything interesting about Tatsu. A dime a dozen Jap.

A diiiiiiiiiiime!
To be fair:

1) WWE could have done without the mood lighting. For his flaws, it only seemed to hurt him more. The times they "forgot" it were relatively botchless matches. Don't know if that was psychological, or he just couldn't fucking see what he was doing, but it seems like that wasn't helping.

2) That honestly could have been anyone under the mask to begin with. Should have just stuck with Hunico without bringing up the difference on commentary and skip the whole "Undertaker vs Undertaker" moment. Only smarks would have known or cared, and WWE was pushing the gimmick anyhow. Doesn't matter who was under the mask. It's not like they were calling the guy Rey Mysterio.



And they could have done things with Tatsu. Having him win matches on shows people watched, for one. Biggest dropped boat was the potential feud between he and Albert for being a giant racist. An "OMG!" win could have sparked an angle in handing Tensai his first loss and starting a war between the two either over Sakimoto's freedom OR keeping Sakimoto a heel and having him also feud with Yoshi, then adding someone to help Tatsu... etc. Instead, they made it a one-off squash that, in the end, got neither man over.
