Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.
This week we’re looking at one of the best cruiserweights of the 2000s: Tajiri. We start with a hidden gem from a stint in New Japan before diving into some amazing ECW matches. Then we check out his time in WWE as William Regal’s assistant, Eddie Guerrero’s tag partner, and Cruiserweight Champion. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about:
- Pablo Escobar & short kings
- High School Musical
- Karate lessons
- The NBA Finals
And a lot more.
