Hashimoto's Brainbuster

[danielfennessey]

Mutoh... The Poor smeggar... His head Almost Went Through The Mat The Way An Ostrich's Head Goes Though The Ground... And He Recovered?!?!?!?!?

[danielfennessey]

@danielfennessey * To Win The Match?!?!?!?!?

[NBMTensai]

Did Mutoh land right on the top of his head or he landed on the back of his head and neck?

[LeoMonsoon]

Booker T - taking it like a champ!

[mattzgrll]

was that booker t???

[Seanatonin]

I think that "Shinya Hashimoto" is Japanese for chiropractor's nightmare

[mrbigyooo]

King Booker T @0:23..lmao

[bettydaw1970]

@mrbigyooo tell me you didnt just type that!!!

[mrbigyooo]

@bettydaw1970 ...lol

[danielfennessey]

@bettydaw1970 Very Good! :D

[TheWesternLariat]

Now,i understand the name of this move.... R.I.P Shinya Hasimoto

[WaywardBrigand]

That brainbuster on Mutoh was the most brutal brainbuster ever. Oddly enough, Mutoh got up and won the match (after about 2 minutes of not moving much).

[evilmidget]

Hashimoto had a passion and fire that few in Puroresu could match. The closest, I think, were Misawa, Kobashi, and Mutoh.

[MrPOKEMAN627]

did he kill someone from that?

[AJG22PHILS]

that's the one move i never would want to try on somebody or have it done to me

[Letalone]

that guy hits the most savage brainbuster I've EVER seen =O

[egg64]

I can't help but notice the crowd go wild like friggin RABID DOGS after he drops that.

[MistressRowan]

@egg64 Of course they applaud for such a major move! It means the match is finished or nearing a climax. They applaud and cheer for the specialness of the move in context with Pro Wrestling psychology, not because it's dangerous and it's cool to see people people get messed up.

In short, they show appreciation for the performers.

[egg64]

@MistressRowan Well saud, Mistress.  I concur.

[scorpiogtx]

cool video

[MrKennyWilliams]

Opponent: (Get's Brainbuster'd)

Hashimoto: Ha ha your going to be eaten through a straw for a week boy!

[MrKennyWilliams]

Stiffest brainbusters EVER

[lovetruly08]

The man in the red trunks who was that? He recieved the brainbuster last.

[PerfectChannel]

Keiji Mutoh / The Great Muta

[rvdrulz010101010]

they aint brainbusters there dangerous brainbusers

[hehehe88]

Hashi's Brainbusters were always so damn brutal.

[roxannekitty]

holy crap, I thought he kind of messed it up on the first one but then he does it the same way in all the others. that's a crazy brainbuster haha.

[Hawkz80]

Is the clip of the first match from Hashimoto's win over Kawada for the AJPW Triple Crown?

[EvilPrimate]

It is that match, except Kawada beat Hashimoto for the belt.

[Hawkz80]

Ah ok. Got that confused, because Kawada had beaten Mutoh for the belt like a year or two earlier, I had thought it was Mutoh-Kawada-Hashimoto. Alright, thanks

[WK2K]

The one at 0:16 is like the equivalent of Hulk's slam of Andre at WM III. Takada vs Hash was probably the biggest match in puro history ever. But whereas Hulk's slam was technically crappy, Hash's brainbuster was a work of art. Look at how Takada completely crumples upon impact!

[paynexkillerAOTF]

Aires take notes!

[BobSeiji]

Best Finisher Ever!!...

The last one is Muto. I remember this match

[paynexkillerAOTF]

Keji ?

[xhunter1220]

the last one looked like the other guy was trying to get back to a standing position

[BiffLunch]

I always loved how Takada would never fully co-operate with the traditional pro-wrestling moves and always make them look worse since his opponent was almost always dead lifting him up. Hashimoto was the man. Long live the Fat King, Hashimoto!

[WolfJFlywheel666]

oh man the last one was insane

[egg64]

Hashimoto's Brainbuster DDT. You can't stop it, you can only hope to contain it.

[kllrpxl]

now i get it brainbuster is a ddt with a lift (sry for that bad english)

[jeaubear]

A brainbuster is a professional wrestling throw in which a wrestler puts his/her opponent in a front facelock, hooks his/her pants, and lifts him/her up as if he/she was executing a vertical suplex. The wrestler then falls onto his/her back so that the opponent lands on his/her head while remaining vertical.

[TheUltimateFighter1]

Who was that poor soul at the end? Kea? I don't believe i've seen that one.

[AJPWrestling]

That is Mutoh from the 1995 G-1 Climax Final

[TheUltimateFighter1]

Ahhh... Ok. I almost think I have that match on my computer, in some wierd twist of irony.

[LeoMonsoon]

I'll bet Mutoh regrets kicking his legs like that... Hashimoto wouldn't have dropped him directly on his head!

[thegreatcapri]

Hashimoto! The master of THE brainbuster! PERIOD.

[knightrrider]

Those were some cool brainbusters

[shiningwizard327]

Was that Booker T or Stevie Ray who got the honor of being Dropped by Hashimoto?

[egg64]

I do believe that was Booker who got killed.

[egg64]

Yeah, by the brainbuster, not literally.

[FuckinDago]

It could've been Stevie Ray but I doubt it

[Grumpyama]

It WAS Stevie Ray ..

[FuckinDago]

Awesome, I always hated that guy.

[ushireborn]

it was booker t

[ezekyo]

The crowd reaction at the 16 second point when Shinya hits the Brainbuster is AMAZING.

[CountDooku4UTube]

wow.....just wow.

[Daveshappell]

Hashimoto's brainbuster one of the few things that could make a Japanese crowd pop like when WWE marks pop for when Cena or Batista.

[theredraven]

Japanese fans pop for loads of things.........Not just big moves like this.

[JKTube]

@Daveshappell: How is that relevant? The styles and the cultures are far too different.

What's odd is that in Japan the move we in the U.S. call a vertical suplex is called a brainbuster.
