[7.0] "He was overpushed when he was green and now he hasn't won a match in seemingly years and he's gotten a lot better. Its funny how wrestling booking works. Anyways, Naya is a competent and ever-improving big man that still hasn't quite found his place beyond the mid-card yet. He's probably due for a reinvention, but some occasional comedy performances and a particularly endearing performance in the Pool and Spa match has raised his stock at least a bit. He acts with a lot more personality now."
[8.0] "Yukio Naya ist wirklich ein richtig guter Big Men meiner Meinung nach, deshalb find ich ihn persönlich sehr unterschätzt, was ich gar nicht so wirklich nachvollziehen kann."
[6.0] "When I first saw this guy he came off as a clumsy oaf that was green and needed time to mature and gain confidence. With the passage of time, he's come along. His 2022 D-OH grand Prix run was impressive. He's shown real growth and I hope he continues to grow as he's given more opportunities. For now, a 6 but that's probably gunna change the more I see of him. Good lad keep on the lookout for this one."
[8.0] "Naya became a much better wrestler than before. He changed his gear and theme music, got push and... Now he's a real young giant star of DDT who always shows his determination and heart in the ring. Yukio uses his power and size really well, he's more experienced, so now Naya can play roles of underdog and dominator, and he's equally good in both of them. And I will be glad to rate this promising young man even higer one day."
[9.0] "Naya is interesting. He is still quite sloppy in the ring, but he already has a whole variety of roles that he performs decently. I liked his work at Kawasaki Strong and from that moment on, he is on another level, where he must gain a foothold. A good and promising guy. UPD: Well, it's been a year and a half since my comment, and he justified himself by finding a character and making amazing singles matches (against Ueno, Hino, Higuchi, Mao). Yukio Naya is a man with the size of Terry Gordy, the looks and charisma of Johnny Ace, and his performances remind me of Toshiaka Kawada. Of course, all these are conventions, but I am pleased with his progress, I never expected him to jump so high."
[5.0] "Yukio Naya usually stands-out like a play-wrestler, which is very funny because of how tall he is, but recently he started showing signs of improvement, which is good to see because you can't teach size. In 2022 he also had a couple of pretty good matches, so it's interesting how this will go for him in the future."
[8.0] "Naya's future is bright. he bares a shocking resemblance to Takayama, especially now with the kickpads and the knee lifts he does. Big fan of him and I hope to see him rise up in the ranks some day"
[8.0] "Great gimmick as an immature low int big dude. He is human and has weaknesses unlike other big guys who just dominate everyone and are not interesting at all. Bright future for Naya :)."
[7.0] "He's a very solid worker that is slowly improving his in-ring ability, he's much better than the first time I've seen him and now is very capable of putting entertaining matches."
[8.0] "Times have changed and the tides have turned with Yukio Naya, as he has now become one of the Most Improved Wrestlers over the last year. I used to compare him to Jake Hager. Now, I have to compare him to Yoshihiro Takayama. Just watch his 2022 King of DDT Tournament match against Kazusada Higuchi and you can see why I would say that. That match was BRUTAL."
