love this theme,shame the team was jobbed out all the time,then when when kato was in singles he was jobbed out to,always wanted him to get a few wins at least,shame on you wwe for making a gud team look like crap!
Dude Pat Tanaka is not Professor Tanaka the professor's name is Toru not Pat and this tandem of Kato and Tanaka actually teamed in the AWA as Badd Company just a little history for ya's please don't hate on me cause I ain't on you just trying to educate
what a shame the great professor tanaka teamed with jobber of the decade Paul Diamond!! Paul would be better off teaming with Pat Patterson. They could call themselves "Diamond Dolls " or " Powder Puff Princesses"
Orient Express, one of many great tag teams from back in the day. I loved this theme even when I was a kid. I'd play NES until wrestling came on, and cheer for these guys as long as they weren't facing The Rockers or Legion of Doom.
So I will fill in the blanks here. Pat Tanaka and Paul Diamond were the Diamond Exchange in the AWA, managed by DDP. Well, Diamond and Tanaka split, and Tanaka signed with the WWF to team with Sato. Sato and Tanaka were very good, but once Sato realized they were not being pushed past mid-card tag status, he quit. So, Vince decided to hire Diamond and put a mask on him. Thus, Kato was born, and Tanaka moved on with a familiar partner. They should have won the belts at least one time.
wish u had uploaded more clips of sato and tanaka the original orient express. i hated kato and tanaka kato never impressed me really i always liked sato better. and sato was one of the first wwf stars to use the powerbomb as a finisher.
Check out the 1991 and 1992 Royal Rumbles, the Orient Express had awesome opening matches with the Rockers and The New Foundation ("The Rocket" Owen Hart and Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart) at those respective events.
I remember when i was a kid and my mom didn't like me watching wrestling, but she started liking it when she saw what I was watching... THE ORIENT EXPRESS KICKIN THE ROCKERS ASS!
Thanks for posting. I always had a soft spot for this tag team. I thought Kato worked the ring very well. Didnt get any push though except that ridiculous Max Moon charachter than Konnan also used
I would love to see Mr. Fuji come out of retirement and where a black hat and suit like he did in the late 80s and early 90s and manage a New Orient Express tag team. But now it seems that they throw 2 wrestlers together and call them a tag team.
As orient express they were tag team as far as I remember. The only thing good about them was their theme, all in all they lost all the time when they faced tough tag team.
One of them was solo before and after orient express I just dont remember his name, this I know for sure, but someone here told me that they both went on to be jobbers in single matches at the wwe.
Awesome music! :-)

Actually Pat Tanaka is still in great shape. Good friends with Marty Jannetty, who he always had good matches with.
Paul Diamond (Kato) may very well be in good shape as well.
Akio Sato would be in his early '60s by now I'd guess.
