Masaaki Mochizuki

[7.0] "Ok hear me out, I know he's a legend who deserves a higher rating but the man is half his former self inside the ring for a long time now. He's good now but a 7 at best where he still can perform but not to the highest level"

[4.0] "Seems i'm the odd one out here on Mochi. I love his early work in WAR , Think he's really good and fiery but a good chunk of his DragonGate work has left me extremely bored and yawning. When he throws his kicks i'm interested but then he immediately goes to holds that just put me to sleep through the screen and they just drag on for so long. He's a large part of the reason why i dislike DragonGate's main event style as much as i do because i can't bare to watch this dude go 25+ at all if 80% of it is him doing nothing control segments before he finally does a cool hard kick. I do really like his work with his Son (who is much better by the way)"

[10.0] "From his early days in Toryumon / early Dragon Gate main eventing, Mochi always stays the pace and reinvents himself - so much talent came via Mochizuki Dojo and he's still putting on bangers pushing 50. I can't think of a bad Mochizuki match and his son will benefit from his years of experience. Excursions elsewhere, titles galore and I think DG would do well to keep him onboard when he eventually hangs up his boots to nurture the next generation."

[10.0] "I consume a LOT of wrestling media, and I can very comfortably say that Masaaki Mochizuki is strongly in the conversation for greatest wrestler of all time. The sheer number of matches, the consistency, the presence, the talent, the longevity, the fact that he hasn't fallen off at all, and never taken any kind of extended break, his absolute ace-level charisma... I don't think there's a total package veteran like Mocchy anywhere else in the world. 10/10 and absolute S-tier wrestler."

[10.0] "One of the underrated legends in the history of Japanese wrestling. Probably my all-time favorite Dragon Gate wrestler along with Shingo, and he can still go even at 51."

[10.0] "An absolute legend, one of the best workers the business has ever seen and still diving over the top rope at 50 years of age. His tag run with Yoshida is one of the best runs I have seen in Dragon Gate. His kicks are so incredibly stiff and look great. This man elevates everyone who is in the ring with him."

[10.0] "Mochizuki is one of the best veterans today, and is one of my favorites at Dragon Gate. He's 50, but he fights like he's 20, he always gives his all in his matches, his kicks are incredible, and of course they served as inspiration for several other younger wrestlers, and he also has great submissions, which fit perfectly with your style,"

[10.0] "Seriously one of the best wrestlers in the world. Any big match he is in, I'm dropping everything to watch it. Something I don't see for most people. Maybe someone like Kazuchika Okada, Daniel Bryan or Katsuhiko Nakajima. All guys whom I think very highly of. Mochizuki is someone who proves age is just a number. Not only does he tune out this high quality performances, his career has a litany of great matches. Tons of versatility too with stints in Battlarts, New Japan for a tour or two. One of the more influential wrestlers of our time as well, as far as Dragon Gate as a whole is concerned."

[9.0] "He has more fire and gives more effort than some 30 yr olds in wrestling. You cannot tell me this man doesn't love this shit with a burning passion"

[10.0] "THE most underrated older vet wrestler from Japan STILL working to this day. His strikes are stiff as hell, he elicits pure fire in all of his matches, and just kicks so much ass. The Shibata of Dragon Gate if I had to use a comparison. Normally I would be turned off from older guys holding top titles, but Mochizuki is the exception."

[10.0] "One of the best in the world at near 50, Mochizuki is perhaps the most underrated wrestler today. Great worker and has a certain charisma that can really get the crowd behind him."

[10.0] "Mochizuki is probably one of the best veterans in Puroresu. He's absolutely incredible with his kick and submission game, he can break out some really athletic stuff for a 40 something year old and he can bring the comedy when its needed. Love Mochizuki, one of the absolute best."

[10.0] "People talk about Kazuchika Okada, Hiroshi Tanahashi.. But doesn't talk about Masaaki Mochizuki, who is a fantastic athlete too, and a little bit underrated in my opinion. He has great in-ring psychology and in-ring skills and has a certain amount of charisma. He's 45 years old, but still can deliver great matchs ! The thing about this guy is that he can kick your head off at any moment, he is a pure stricker."

[10.0] "This guy is 44 years old and still leaves dust to every single wrestler in DG. Fuck, he can wrestler in stiff matches and kick the living hell out of his opponet(best kicker ever). and sometimes has a slow, melodical with awesome psychology and storytelling, using an high quality mat and chain wrestling. he also nice in his aerial assaults. This man stands with the greatest in-ring wrestlers as far as puro goes. One of my biggest dream matches is Mochizuki vs KENTA."

[10.0] "One of the best wrestlers that ever took step in the DG ring. Mochizuki has the best and the stiffest kicks in the wrestling Business today."
