蝶野正洋: Mr. G1! This is CHONO!

[Espingardeiro]

you should make a vid comparing his real STF with Cena's terrible STF!!!!

[steelix18]

chono is awesome...now he does this funny thing on a japanese show

[hehehe88]

Who is that masked fellow? Looks familiar...

[Powercat316]

@hehehe88 One was Jushin Liger without the horns on his mask or the top of his bodysuit.

[hehehe88]

@Powercat316 get the fuck out of here, why the change in costume?

[Powercat316]

@hehehe88 He was fighting Heavyweights around this time if I remember correctly. There's a match Liger in this style of attire in a match with Keiji Mutoh on Youtube somewhere.

[kyotanahashi]

@Powercat316 yea, thats his heavyweight attire. he's now reverted back to the original costume, only difference is that he wears multi-coloured wigs because well, he's bald now

[ecchirebirth]

Chono is old but he will still kick you in your fucking face. And that's one of many reasons why he's awesome.

[msaoichan]

@ecchirebirth

Chuck Norris's roundhouse has one fatal weakness.

and that's Masahiro Chono's Yakuza kick.

[MartinGiacomo]

4 people don't know what a real pro wrestler is.

[cmhero85]

Chono and Muta are like HBK, Flair, Taker, Austin, Rock, Hogan, Triple H, Y2J, Eddie Guerrero, he who we dont speak of, RKO, John Cena, RVD, Bryan Danielson, Kaval and now with the Miz.

[reggaetoncalle]

IThis Mother fucker Got MAd Hood, Than American NWO

I Think He is from the hood One of the member of NWo Typhoon Had same tlong tights as Hogan

[reggaetoncalle]

IThis Mother fucker Got MAd Hood, Than American NWO

I Think He is from the hood

[Fortevn]

The only one that can survive from Chono is but Yamasaki Hoseiiiiiii

[minhtambeast]

He kicked at brock lesnar, rite @1.21?

[minhtambeast]

He kicked at brock lesnar, rite at @1.21?

[Firestartersan]

Chono = Epic Win in the physical realm.

[ROSECROIX21]

CHONO ex-nWoJAPAN BOSS

[oAPXo]

I saw some american wrestlers (not including Hogan and Lesner) who where they? I thought I saw scotty 2 hotty or whatever he's called now and some others.

[KingQuad75]

Chono = one of the rawest mofo's to have ever been!!!

[unloksouls1]

what is his finishers?

[kyotanahashi]

STF, Shining Kenka Kick

[Poetguy98]

Muto has the shining wizard

chono has the Yakuza kick/ big boot

awesome vid thanks for posting..

[EWFHardcoreKevin]

i have never ever heard chono speak english like how does english wrestle comunicate with him ?

[kyotanahashi]

well, he has his ways. for one, he's born in Seattle. Secondly, his wife is german which means his two kids are half-white, half-japanese. pretty sure he may speak Muto-level English which really isnt bad at all

[EWFHardcoreKevin]

i knwo what u mean but no i meant liek i never ever seen him ever speak english ever

[princesstamika]

@kyotanahashi Really? I'd always seen that but I thought it was just from his NWA/WCW days, just something for kayfabe. Wow. I now have the sudden urge to like. ..fly to Japan and profess my crush. Just kidding. But if his wife is German born that means his english may be above Muto level but yeah, Muto level ain't bad.

[NYCPulpHero]

@kyotanahashi dont forget german and spanish

[NYCPulpHero]

HAIL TYRANT JUSTICE!!!!

anyone know when the Japanese ver. of the Sopranos is going to be made!? Id love to see him be a yakuza boss

[SerchKaiba]

awesome at 1:29 xD

[RSNCICREO]

TWO WORDS

japanese Badass

no 1 Mr g1 FTS one of the best submissons moves in the sport

[egg64]

If Flair was Japanese....and in the mafia, this is who he'd be.

[misharyutubbee]

I just wish he wouldn't slap poor Yamasaki!

[thetinogarcia]

nwa international title not the main championship

[kyotanahashi]

it is the NWA World Title

[PavelRave]

He would be a bad ass person, if he would really join the Yakuza lol

[PavelRave]

Masahiro Chono is a great wrestler. I love his bad ass gimmicks. A great person, a great wrestler and an amazing performer! THANK YOU FOR THE WRESTLING!

[Rallisport]

Mr. August forever!

[BexyCZW]

Yakuza kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick !

[9InchWarrior]

Erm...hello? Misawa vs Chono? What the hell? When? Where? How? How many?

[kyotanahashi]

a one-on-one time limit draw..and a couple of tag matches

[Tech316]

LOve da techno remix at 2:12 any ideas where cud get hold of it? please

[bradleybravo]

he is my favorite wrestler from japan

[KingAndy1992]

Long live the Yakuza King

[matsus123]

wolf?

[vicehoundelite]

when did chono win the wcw title? I think he is one of the greatest ever!

[kyotanahashi]

its the NWA World Heavyweight Title before WCW withdrew from the NWA

[glad2watch]

Who mixed the theme song into Trance ver.???

[TheTrueFranchise]

Chono is such a pimp. That guy is the real big star in this world. He can work and draw money. Need I say more?

[Teliholt]

wow i like it

[SaintofKillers66]

lol @ 1:28. yo hogan that's how you do a fucking kick!

[hehehe88]

im loving that music, its so evil yet, in a way that is brilliant.

[MrDickDan]

could u give me the music please? i love that theme of his.

[Eyeshield26]

Wouldn't wrestling be so much cooler if there were more heels like this guy?

[kyotanahashi]

yea...everytime those 'organs' of his entrance song starts to play...the whole place blows..even in recent shows...the man is semi-retired and hes still over as fuck

[therealsongoku]

"I am CHONO" he is da man.

[kingequain]

Chono just awesome. You can't help but like this guy. Everybody coming up in this business needs to enroll in the Masa "My Hero" Chono Institue for People Who Can't Heel Good. This guy just reeeks of awesomeness.

I AM CHONO!

[gyooj6]

kuro no karisuma

[manjifanhism]

Triple H and Masahiro Chono are the best heels in my book. Period.

[Gigas0101]

lol, you got chown'd. Sweet video and probably the best theme songs ever. this guy just oozes evilness! I gotta go buy some DVDs of his matches now.

[NYCPulpHero]

GO CHONO! HAIL TYRANT JUSTICE!

[egg64]

That's funny watching him evolve from face to Ultimate Heel/Yakuza Boss mode. He's the shytz.

[punnpui]

FUCKN NEW JAPAN!

[MessiahOfTheDDT]

Sweet video. But some more Shining Blacks would have been nice. I love that move, it's easily my favorite out of all the Shining Wizard variations out there.

[RFury]

I AM CHONO!

[RKinger12]

i think everytime an american wrestler clones a japanese wrestlers style he pretty much can guarantee success. kinda like CM Punk becoming KENTA when he debuted on ECW. GTS, Anaconda vice, and the KENTA combo... clonership

[Eyeshield26]

I'm a Muta/Mutoh guy, but Chono owns.

[CrazyCircumstances]

I think American wrestlers can really learn a lot about Heel characters from the Japanese greats such as Chono and the Great Muta.

[kingequain]

Seriously, Chono is one of the greatest heels in history. American or puro, Chono is awesome as a heel. I saw a match from N. Korea when he low blowed the guy three times just for kicks.

[SaintofKillers66]

Looks kinda like Dante Hicks.

[quicknecky]

CHONO IS MY HERO..

[wiwrestling]

could you tell me where i could get chono's music from please

[Ten001]

a web site called madsplash

[platdrac]

My favorite video ever

[GringoTensai]

What does he say in the end?

[AngeTheDude]

G1 Champ! I AM CHONO!

[Kingofeurope]

Wow, what a talent.

[cc13man]

chono -

[EvilJeter]

Simply put....Chono is the man!!!

[dragonupper1]

this man is my fuckin idol!

[Samoajoejr]

Greatest wrestling in the world is in Japan.

[kyotanahashi]

i agree

[manjiimortal]

Definily.

[Gigas0101]

it went for best wrestling: England to Mexico to America to Japan, spanning the birth, to the lucha legend, to the attitude era, to the one true style of Puroresu.

[thuggin83]

Please Chono would kick Triple H's nose off with that Shining BLack or his Yakuza Kick.

[chachka]

that video ruled.

Chono has been one of my favorites for a long time, and his Shining Yakuza kick is wicked

[Entertainmentwf]

Chono, one of the best out there :)

[lowki1087]

chono's such a badass

[gabrielnyc]

god I miss doing efed wrestling with him. I set up his stable like a crime syndicate.

[SuperAdventures]

FUCK YA NIGGAS WANNA DO???

[Suprah]

Chono = puroresu's Triple H

maybe even better than HHH ;)

[Gigas0101]

a quadrapeligic is a better wrestler than triple H. Chono gets heat whereas everyone either legitimately hates triple H or is stupid. Chono uses real skill in the ring whereas triple H uses his marriage to steph mcmahon or a flurry of punches for the entertainment of stupid people.

don't put Triple H on the same pedestal as chono, he doesn't even deserve to be in the same building.

[Suprah]

Fair enough mate. I dont give a toss about wrestling nowadays as I have stopped watching it. WWE and TNA are too predictable and boring to be taken seriously.

[kyotanahashi]

nowadays chono has become a respectable veteran/legend and is a tweener now with his new legends group...if it hadnt been for his neck more than a decade ago he woulda been bigger than just being New Japan's most recognizable name all these years..at least one more IWGP title reign

HHH however is HHH...banged the boss's daughter and get complete control..

[kingequain]

I just realized that Chono only had one reign as IWGP Champ and it was for about a month. That's messed up. I've said it once and I'll say it again, Masa "My Hero" Chono is in the Top 10 Greatest Heels in the History of Professional Wrestling.

[kyotanahashi]

at least he has 5 G1 Climax wins to back his shit up...not only that, his face is on more "upcoming-tours" posters than any other wrestler...(thats how i see it)

[theredraven]

Problem he's had have been hic neck injury and that fatc he is so broken down.....He's also very unselfish to boot.

[m4hki3]

chono with the big gold belt...AWESOME

[hayabusafmw]

gosh i love chono

[takona]

wot music is it

[Grumpyama]

All the songs are Chono's entrance themes throughout his career. And a techno remix.

[Grumpyama]

Great Music video. Love the Kenka kick to Hogan's face.
