Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted January 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 Did Yoko have a reputation for this? Check out the Yokozuna match on the first Monday Night Raw of 1994 on the Network. He beats the absolute piss out of him (blood comes out of his nose), then absolutely squashes him with a "Banzai Drop". Just beats the ever-loving snot out of him. It's brutal. Quite painful to watch. Â Did he rough anybody else up like that? Cheers!
Paid Members ElCece Posted January 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 I've never heard anything about him being a jobber beater. Could it just be that hes been told that its the 1st Raw make it look good? Off to watch it now.
CTXRussomark Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I think it was one of Kevin Nash's shoots where he said jobbers would regularly leave TV tapings with bruised/broken ribs after working with Yoko. I always remember the compilation of Banzai Drops they showed on the Rumble 94 countdown show and Yoko would just kill guys with the move when he felt like it.
Liam O'Rourke Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Yeah, he used to just legitimately drop his ass on guys from the second rope in 93/94, just horrific to watch. I rewound that Rumble 94 compilation multiple times as a kid in absolute horror.
Paid Members WWFChilli Posted January 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 Proper dickhead behavior personally. Probably had no diet cokes in.
Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted January 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 I remember it being discussed a little while back on here with cringeworthy videos being posted. I guy his size, he's lucky he didn't kill some one. Absolutely reckless behaviour.
TheLowdown1987 Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Wonder if he was told to go rough to get over. No need though. Proper scumbag behavior. The Harris Brothers would not have stood for it.
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 Proper dickhead behavior personally. Probably had no diet cokes in. Â Aye, a bit of respect has been lost after watching some of these squash matches. He wouldn't dare try it with anybody established.
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 Pretty standard for the time. Get your stuff over, make sure it looks like it fucking hurts. In hindsight, it's cunty. Back then, jobbers took their life in their hands with some big monsters.
Snitsky's back acne Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Cornette said in a shoot that if Yoko liked you or respected you he would be as light as a feather and you wouldn't feel a thing but if he didn't then he would be a lot more reckless.I'd be interested to hear from Jeff Hardy, Justin Credible and Scotty 2Hotty on the matter as they were all jobbers when Yoko Banzai'd them.Â
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted January 11, 2016 Awards Moderator Posted January 11, 2016 I'm sure I remember Jeff talking about it in the Hardys' book. He wasn't too fond of the experience if I remember correctly.
Porkchopcash Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I remember Powerslam used to claim Yoko wore padding, that's how i assumed he was able to do the move with such force.
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted January 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2016 padding!? Â where?? Â check this shit out: Â Â can anyone confirm that the jobber lived?
bobby dazzler Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I remember Powerslam used to claim Yoko wore padding, that's how i assumed he was able to do the move with such force. Â God, I remember that! Fin used to say thing like, "....during the match Yoko's leg padding look ridiculous".Â
Ambulance Chaser Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 check this shit out: Â Â Â Â Â Â Jesus fucking Christ. He almost beheaded him.
