[10.0] "An unbelievable well of potential gone way too soon. Fukuda has a genuine case for being one of the best wrestlers ever with just a four year career. He joined WYF as a major amateur prospect and showed out with stellar matches only months into his career, and ended up being talented enough to warrant NJPW scouting him and signing him from WYF only two years into the business. I can't imagine just how good he would've gotten had it not been for the freak accident that took his life. Rest in peace to a young master who had the whole world in his hands."

[10.0] "Excellent wrestler. Very technical and skilled in the ring. A lot of people don't know who he was. Sadly he died from injuries form a match. If he did not die he would have been well known in the world. Popular individual in NJPW. His career was short lived but he performed very well. RIP future hall of famer."
