| 11 | 14.03.2025 | Brutish Dandy | 8.0 | Good in-ring talent during his younger days and an exceptional booker. At times a little too much of a westaboo for his own good, but has nevertheless managed to produce the best content NJPW has had since the early '90s. |
| 12 | 13.03.2025 | lukasmgc | 10.0 | This is mainly for his booking of NJPW in 2015-2020. For just that you have to give him the 10. He oversaw one of the best eras of any promotions and the way he placed matches was great. He gave NJPW consistent booking because before, it was good, but it seemed all over the place. |

| 14 | 01.03.2025 | SelujGold | 10.0 | An exceptionnal booker that may relie too much on long term storytelling but It pays and he product some of the best wrestling content of all time during New Japan peak. As a wrestler and a manager he is perfectly fine. but he is really one of the best booker, if not the best |
| 15 | 21.12.2024 | TripleCrown | 6.0 | In-ring wise, Gedo was pretty solid. Nothing amazing, but definitely a good hand in the junior heavyweight and tag divisions. His work as a booker is alright, as many have said previously, he just so happened to be there at the right time when guys like Okada, Naito and Omega were at their peaks. Obviously you can't say their ability to wrestle is the sole reason why he was a good booker then, but it definitely helped. Once those guys slowed down a bit, I think his ability as a booker really showed. He's just pretty average when it comes to booking. |

| 19 | 23.07.2024 | DENDY | 5.0 | As a worker, Gedo is really poor, part of a really overpushed tag team with Jado was his highlight and even today he is taking up spots I would much rather see occupied by other workers, even if he is a pin-eater. As a booker and manager I am much more of a fan, he has always had a strong presence as a manager and his booking of New Japan has been pretty good over the years. I consider these ratings to largely comprise skill as a worker so he gets a pretty low score, but he has had some positive influence on modern puro which bumps him up a bit. |

| 41 | 22.01.2023 | Tyler72 | 5.0 | Gedo's about what you'd expect out of a booker, occasional wrestler and manager. He has done a great job as NJPW's main booker, but there's nothing too much to write home with his character. Would love to see him more involved in the storylines. |
| 42 | 13.01.2023 | benh2 | 7.0 | Was a good tag wrestler back in his prime, nothing special but he served a purpose in his position. More recently he's a Memphis cosplay which is fine in opening matches but will never lend itself to decent matches. As a booker overall you have to praise him, some excellent long-term storytelling in the decade-plus he's had the book. |

| 47 | 07.09.2022 | UltraNano54 | 4.0 | As a booker; terrible. At the start it was great, but his booking is like a broken record and super repetitive and makes the same mistakes over and over but people are OK with it because they tell themselves it's "long term" booking and that there will be a pay off one day. Well it's been 10 years and I am still waiting for Naito's pay off. It's the same matches over and over and the title picture would feel a lot fresher if anyone but Okada could hold the title for more than a few months. As a wrestler; not really much to say. Just an average tag wrestler who doesn't look that convincing but doesn't look terrible either. |

| 68 | 09.02.2021 | Ma Stump Puller | 7.0 | Was a half-decent tag specialist back in the day and had some pretty good matches: nothing really spectacular but he could play a number of roles and clearly understood the craft, which clearly translated into his booking which focuses a lot on long term storytelling and character work, themed call-backs to old matchups within new ones, and a stronger focus on wrestling moves and building up feuds over time: basically most of the themes of Baba's King's Road. It's definitely not unique by nature but Gedo does deserve credit for modernising it for NJPW, however he does have his errs of course, namely in that while he's fine booking for the upper main event, he's pretty bad when it comes to stuff like tag teams (in ANY format) and a overreliance on big stars and just throwing everyone else in 6 man tags. |
| 69 | 26.01.2021 | Shadow Explosion | 1.0 | He's a bad wrestler, booker, and annoying as hell manager. As a wrestler he's really nothing to write home about, he might be better than Jado(? ) but whenever I watch him wrestle he does nothing that interest me. As a booker he's utterly abysmal. "Let me book 30-40 minute Main Events with Evil who will just walk and brawl", "What's a tag division? ", "you want me to book G. O. D to win the tag titles again? " NO I Don't! I want a good tag team to have the belts, I want a successful fun tag divsion! and as a manager he's just shouting and his voice is so annoying. |
| 70 | 13.01.2021 | Kishikaisei37x | 10.0 | A genius booker (Evil push aside) and is responsible for New japan becoming as big as it is. Apart from his Devitt match which more helped by the crowd he's never had a big match but in his day was an alright wrestler but should definitely stop wrestling now |

| 86 | 07.01.2020 | Caas | 10.0 | Above average worker in his prime, decent and at worst passable outside of it. Gedo's legacy will not be as a worker, however. This man is seriously in the conversation for all-time greatest booker, which is so inherent at this point that I feel an explanation of his genius is completely redundant. Gedo is also a very good manager in a time where managers in themselves are few and far between. |
| 87 | 04.11.2019 | arrancar | 7.0 | From what I've seen of Gedo as a wrestler, he was your typical arrogant brawl-based heel and nothing else. As a booker, Gedo is an absolute mixed bag. On one hand, he totally abandons 80% of the NJPW roster to do absolutely nothing for years on end because he obviously doesn't care one iota about the heavyweight tag scene, the junior tag scene, the US title scene, or the god awful 6-man tag scene, and he cares even less about non-title feuds and storylines. This often makes about 50% of a NJPW show total filler that you can (and should) skip. ON THE OTHER HAND, Gedo has built up several of the greatest modern wrestlers of all time into absolute stars, and his booking for the few wrestlers he DOES care about has always been world-class with great attention to long-term storytelling and character development. He is also the master of the swerve. Occasionally this will feel trollish, but he has managed to craft appropriate stories to the point where you enjoy being shocked at not getting what you expected (e. g. Okada's WK9 loss, Omega's 2016 G1 win, Naito's WK12 loss, and Tanahashi's 2018 G1 and WK13 wins). This also makes us fans constantly on edge. Yeah, we think it's OH SO OBVIOUS that X is going to win X, but remember that time we were also this confident and Gedo played us? I love that we can never ever get too comfortable with the stories in NJPW. Is it really all just a long, long, long, long, long story of Naito's final rise to become the face of the company? Or is it all just a never-ending tease that will never be followed through on? I don't know, and I'll be massively disappointed if it's the latter, but its stories like this that make me respect Gedo at the very least for managing to make me so invested in his various wrestlers and taking me on massive emotional journeys with them. |

| 91 | 14.07.2019 | ElPolloLoco | 9.0 | As a wrestler Gedo was nothing to write home about and sadly had an only slightly exagerated reputation for being dangerous to work with. Did well in junior tag settings but in singles settings he tended to flop even against great opponents such as Chris Jericho and El Samurai. But as a booker... I understand why some people don't like him but we have to give him and Jado credit where it's due. These two guys have done the impossible with what is basically a minuscule fixed roster and an ever-changing pool of foreigners. Have they made mistakes? Of course they have, but they were also humble enough to correct them as quickly as possible. And let's not forget sometimes they have to work under strict orders from above: they aren't all-powerful dictators. Gedo gets extra points over Jado for one reason alone: Okada. Call him a smart gambler because the talent was just there from the beginning but given the tepid reactions Okada got at the start of his Rainmaker run it took a lot of guts. |

Gedo is getting a 10 for being the mastermind behind New Japan's gradual growth from being a shadow of their former selves to being the premier in-ring promotion of the decade, and of showcasing some of the best talent that wrestling has ever seen. |
| 99 | 05.10.2018 | MAGICIAN | 8.0 | |
| 100 | 03.09.2018 | TheBrainlessRobot | 10.0 | The greatest booker in wrestling today. He has an incredible mind for wrestling and it was his booking of Okada's reign, besides Okadas in ring performance, that made that reign so memorable |
