[7.0] "Don Fujii has been a consistent part of Dragon Gate in the mentor role for a number of wrestlers. Solid in the ring but nothing flashy - He's often used to mentor or test younger wrestlers even using the Boston Crab as a finisher primarily on the rookies only. A key member of Crazy MAX, Blood Generation and the Strong Machines he's still active in the ring and the kind of experienced wrestler to add some stability and shine to the roster. He's had a kleptomanic gimmick that has seen him try to skateboard, surf and ride a bicycle along with the odd bit of Karaoke! Proof that you can be useful to a wrestling company without having to be the main attraction."

[6.0] "Fujii sticks out like a small thumb in a promotion like DG with fast-paced action, high-flying acrobatics galore, and lean-bodied stars with idol looks. And this is all what makes Fujii so endearing, since he clearly doesn't belong alongside the likes of Yoshino, Hulk, Skywalker, or Eita, yet that never stops him showing heaps of heart and energy in all his matches. His completely different offence also makes for interest, since he's far slower and more strike-based, all while often playing up his "wow I'm really out of my league with these crazy-talented young guys" character, which makes it impossible to not cheer from him when he tries (almost always in vein) to give the young guys a beating in spite of his physical shortcomings. Fujii isn't someone who will help produce a great match, but he can definitely give a great performance in his own special way."

Don Fujii is like the abusive dad who'll slap you for being out of line, wear a bath robe, drink a beer, challenge you to a sumo match and then hang out with his buddies Cima and Gamma. I refer to him as Dad Fujii. He's still very entertaining, breaking out the sumo spots and a decent chokeslam. I compare him a lot to Minoru Suzuki and although he isn't as good at the wrestling aspect Suzuki is, he's arguably better at the comedy than Suzuki is. I'd like to see him team with Suzuki in his retirement match, slapping the young boys as they come to the ring."
