Akira Taue 田上 明 Tribute

[gardenstatecobra]

i love both the old school chokeslamming Dynamic T and the current tit-twisting Chairman Taue!!! he's not as stiff as Kawada, but Taue is rather supernatural.

[00AwesomeOne00]

One of my long time favorite examples that the guy DON'T have to be ripped and roided as f*ck in order to kick so much ass. Taue's the man!

[JPThunder01]

You could say the same thing about the rest of the famous five, none of them had bodybuilder physiques, but because of that they could wrestle for an hour if they had to.

[Test4champ]

Another great video, great job.

[WK2K]

Damn, he NEEDS to tag with Kawada at the Misawa tribute show. Kawada and Taue were the ultimate heel tag team. Their brutal power moves contrasted perfectly with Misawa/Kobashi and Misawa/Akiyama, who were more about speed and high flying (at the time). There are few teams that I feel could legitimately beat the hell out of you. Kawada and Taue could!

Yeah, Holy Demon Army FTW.

[Kokushi666]

that chokeslam to vader was great GO TAUE!

[fanWRESTLINGfan]

awesome video!. whos the guy he bodyslammed at 0:36?

[GiffHoyt]

Thanks man. The guy taking the slam at 0:36 is Tsuyoshi Kikuchi.

[1BlueThunder3]

best chokeslam ever

[MauriceSometimes]

Hey, I can't believe I didn't comment on this one either. Gerd Jerb.

[GiffHoyt]

<3 <3 <3

[GiffHoyt]

Thanks Punch, I appreciate that.

[punch9992]

Giff I just have to say you are my favorite MV maker on youtube. I try to make music videos as good as yours but yours always seem to have more meaning and flow.

[bobbycalvin]

Wow-about time Akira T got a tribute-he rocks-i've seen so many awesome matches of his-he's an amazing worker-and super agile for his size-Thanks for uploading and nice job on the video....

[punch9992]

There is more than one Akira Taue music video on youtube :)

[egg64]

I noticed you do tributes for the more underrated NOAH/AJPW wrestlers, my hats off to you with this one and the Akiyama tribute.

[GiffHoyt]

Thanks for noticing, and yes I like to tribute the guys that are kind of overlooked.

[blackskydragon]

Taue is awesome he has very unique offense such as his many chokeslams :)

[TyphloVertabreaker]

this is the best I think :p I like this guy :) he is a legend for me :) We dont see him a lot :(

[whitekimbo]

good tall old school wrester.

[armandroh666]

Taue, the most underated legend in Japan (along with Chono, Nagata, & Ogawa) but glad to finaly see a Taue tribute, great job:)

[GiffHoyt]

I feel the same way, thanks for watching!

[FuckinDago]

I totally agree, Taue and Chono especially don't get the credit they deserve.

[dermert]

ah yes akira taue one of japans greats. Great vid and great song. This song would be perfect for rock band. If only you had that weird flip chokeslam.

[GiffHoyt]

Ehh...I could have used it, I just didn't really like it aesthetically.

[AJPWrestling]

Taue forever! i'm wearing a Taue t-shirt right now actually (the fish one)

[TheBuck26]

Awesome vid. Taue rocks my socks and Taue/Kawada will always be one of my favorite teams.

[MrWrestlingFan]

Taue will always be awesome fuck the haters.

[CraiggyOats]

No offense but I would have liked to have Eclipse as the song (Taue's actual theme). But it's your video and you can do what you want.

[GiffHoyt]

That'd be too easy

[PapaChewie]

Sweet, Taue rules. For my money, Kawada & Taue vs. Misawa & Kobashi is still the greatest series of tag matches ever! Period.

[manjiimortal]

Finaly, the greatness that is Akira Taue receives a video tribute!

Kudos for you.

[Alan4L]

Great video dude!

[DragonFishBlow]

Great stuff. Nice to see Taue finally getting his own tribute.
