[10.0] "When people talking about great brawlers in our days not so many talking about Sekimoto such on of the best, but he is perfect brawler. He is not tall lump of muscles, whose throws looking very strong and I like his release throws. Very simple, very aggressive with specific charisma of a classic brawler and unforgettable smile. His team with Yuji Okabayashi was one of the best in Japan, because their beuty of simple, but still amazing punches and throws was incomprehensible. They understand their opponents style very well, very flexible approach to everyone with good accents and story. Nowadays some people calls that style oldschool, but for me it is a reason to watch puro at all and for me Sekimoto not only one of the best brawlers in modern era. He is one of the best of all time and it's incredible, that he still face and soul of BJW Srong Division."

[9.0] "The heart and soul of Big Japan Pro-Wrestling's Strong Division. When I first saw Sekimoto, I thought this isn't a real person. Turns out the size of his muscles match up with his wrestling ability. Comedically large, but with the strength, explosiveness and agility of a rugby player, Sekimoto is one of the most unique wrestlers I have ever seen, and for him to consistently stay on top of his game for 25 years is incredible. I rate him a 9 because although he is an incredible wrestler, he's a little lacking when wrestling smaller guys, and sometimes in those same matches he would sell unconvincingly. His best matches are always against heavyweights the same size or bigger than him. Nonetheless, absolute legend and I hope to watch him again live someday."

[10.0] "Sekimoto is 38 now but he's still going stronger than ever. I can see him wrestling into his late 40s, maybe even more, if he wants to. Regardless, despite being relatively unknown to mainstream wrestling fans, he will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. No exaggeration. I have never seen a man of Sekimoto's size fly around the ring like he does, executing missile dropkicks better than most high-flyers while throwing around people twice his size like they're nothing. And on top of that, he has incredible ring IQ and can bring out the best in just about anyone he's paired with. He is just a once in a lifetime wrestler, plain and simple."

[10.0] "My favourite active wrestler. An impressive powerhouse and underrated grappler with a mastery over the basics. Always does his best to make his opponents look good, even when defeating rookies or juniors in dominating fashion. In the midst of his 20th year and putting out classics every other week."

[10.0] "The face of the Big Japan Pro Wrestling Strong Division and arguably the best powerhouse in the world right now. The only other man who comes close to him would be Shuji Ishikawa. Together with Yuji Okabayashi they are at least in the top 5 best tags teams in the world of the last decade."

[9.0] "Daisuke Sekimoto is a jacked, strong style beast capable of striking your face off, blocking harder hits and has a great crowd connection/charisma. One of the best practitioners of modern day strong style."

[10.0] "Absolutely unbelievable monster of a man, and one of, if not the best hoss on the planet today. He just has that spark in him that makes any moment he's in the ring a great one. What really puts him over the top is that not only is his offense fantastic and the way he carries himself perfect, but he can sell with the best of them on top of that. Plus his German Suplexes are immaculate."

[9.0] "One of the strongest wrestlers on the planet. Daisuke has one of the best Big Man movesets in professional wrestling history and the athleticism that he has is simply outstanding , Hopefully he has a run in NJPW some day because he is way to good to be doing smaller Japanese promotions for the rest of his life"
