4 | 11.08.2023 | RuneCaswell | 7.0 | Sakuraba is an all-time great, but he has been slowing down significantly for the last year and a half or so, and his match quality has dropped tremendously. I'm not a huge fan of old man comedy Saku, which is odd, because I'm typically a huge fan of that sort of thing. He still entertains me, but I haven't seen a must-see Sakuraba match for some time. |

10 | 25.01.2023 | SIRasdf23 | 8.0 | I'll admit, when I first saw Saku, I wasn't all that impressed, he just struck me as another past his-prime guy who only stuck around to work the meaningless multi-man matches that open NJPW cards. As time has gone on, I've come to appreciate the standing and legacy of Saku, the legend of the Gracie Killer one of the greatest MMA Fighters in history. Plus with his work in NOAH allowing him to stand out a bit more, it shows that he still has a lot more to give to this industry. |

27 | 14.11.2021 | SZ1989 | 10.0 | His career in pro wrestling was short but Sakuraba was one of the best to ever do it. From a purely technical standpoint, Sakuraba was way ahead of his time and his matches with Kiyoshi Tamura and Hiromitsu Kanehara in UWFi were early preludes to what a great grappler he became in MMA. He instantly got all the key aspects of professional wrestling despite his technical style, just like Tamura, Volk Han, and Tsuyoshi Kohsaka. Everyone should check out his work in UWFi and Kingdom, because he has a legitimate argument to be on anyone's list of the top 25 wrestlers of all time. |

36 | 03.06.2021 | Kung | 10.0 | One of the most legitimate badasses in this history of modern combat sports. While he's way more well known as the "Gracie Killer" and one of the greatest competitors in MMA, his acumen in pro wrestling is unquestioned. He's the only guy I'd say is more badass than Minoru Suzuki. |

58 | 18.06.2017 | Viper99 | 8.0 | Ich weis das er ein MMA background hat, aber davo habe ich nicht wirklich etwas gesehen wesshalb ich nur seine Matches bei New Japan bewerte. Es ist momentan das beste Jahr Sakurabas bei New Japan. Klar hatte er vereinzelnt schon gute Matches wie gegen Nakamura, aber dieses Jahr hatte er wohl so viele starke Matches wie noch in keinem Jahr vorher. Bei Wrestle Kingdom gegen Suzuki und jetzt bei Dominion gegen Shibata um mal 2 zu nennen. Sein Stil gefällt mir und ich hoffe wir werden noch mehr von ihm sehen. |

66 | 19.12.2015 | smark calaway | 8.0 | I think Sakuraba implements the MMA style into pro wrestling in a fairly believable and effective way. His work in New Japan is for the most part solid, with lots of great matwork and technical chains. Another feather in his cap is his well-deserved Gracie Hunter moniker - I dislike most Gracie involvement in wrestling so it's interesting that Sakuraba outclasses them in both sports. |

Der Rest freut sich einfach das einer der größten MMAler/Pro Wrestler Hybride sein Weg zurück zum Wrestling gefunden hat, da wird der Kimura Lock wieder zum Killer Move und Shoot-Style Nostalgie hochgekocht. |
74 | 26.02.2015 | Phenomenal91 | 10.0 | "Pro wrestling is strong. " Damn right. They told him pro wrestlers had no place in the Octagon. He proved them wrong. He beat everybody. He gave an authenticity to pro wrestling that was missing from it for awhile. His match against Minoru Suzuki at WrestleKingdom9 is probably one of my favorites of all time. |

76 | 27.11.2014 | GD | 10.0 | What can i say about the Gracie Hunter ? Started in UWF, proving his mat skills, while having an outstanding rivalry against Kiyoshi Tamura (which would escalate in the future). Then fought in PRIDE, and became one of the best japanese fighters of all time ! Now in NJPW, competes mainly in tag matches, but he is still very fun to watch ! |

80 | 28.06.2013 | STRIGGA | 6.0 | Ein absolute Legende des japanischen MMA, die im vergangenen Jahr auch den Weg zurück zum Pro-Wrestling gewagt hat. Anders als bei Shibata merkte man jedoch genau, dass ihm das Gefühl für das Wrestling abging. Die Ringpräsenz war nicht so gut, wurde jedoch allmählich besser. |
