Ryuki Honda

[7.0] "Honda has the ability I believe to mix it with the top guys but he tends to rely a bit too much on his comedy chops at the moment. If he got serious I think he could be a player in AJPW but as it stands he's just a good mid carder."

[8.0] "New Period represent! I think Honda has all the tools that Anzai has, he's just missing the look. I think he reaches the title one day, not soon, but one day."

[7.0] "One of AJPW's impressive young talents. Seems well positioned to join the main event scene. Got a cool look and I love his signature spot of counting along with the ref when he has someone in the ropes. Glad to see he's getting tag team reps with Katsuhiko Nakajima, should help him continue improving."

[9.0] "He just had his first real Triple Crown challenge against Yuma Aoyagi, and he passed the main eventer test despite losing the match. Now that Gungnir of Anarchy is no more, I think All Japan are going to go hard in a singles direction with him, and I'd bet he challenges again for the title next year."

[8.0] "I was blown away to find out Ryuki Honda is only 21 years old. He is already pretty good, holding his own in Triple Crown title main events. He has the potential to be truly great if he continues to develop."
