@YankeesFlair No, you're wrong - the WWE Hall of Fame is a HUGE JOKE! Seriously though, I agree with you completely. How can they justify not inducting Haystacks Calhoun, Prof. Tanaka, Ivan Koloff and others, and then induct Sunny, who was only popular because she was hot? Sunny wasn't any better in the ring than Candace Michelle, who was as awful in the ring as she was beautiful outside it.
Wow, the late Dino Bravo pre-steroids! DeNucci and Bravo beat Tanaka & Fuji for the belts at a later date. Vince McMahon claims that they're running out of main eventers to induct into their Hall of Fame. Ha! DeNucci and the late Prof. Tanaka both deserve to be there, along with "Haystacks" Calhoun, Randy Savage & Elizabeth, Demolition, The Road Warriors, Ken Patera, and a whole host of others that aren't in yet.
I don't know why videos of Tanaka are so rare on YouTube, but I'm glad you found this one and shared it with us. I hope you find more of him in singles or tag action.
@elc1960 They can never seem to get it right! Well, WWE did one thing right by showing these old matches on 24/7 at least!

@elc1960 Actually, Candice was fair in the ring and had a lot of spirit; Sunny could not wrestle at all.

Not that I can blame him for not wanting anything to do with it

At 8:30 was that some sort of miscue where Tanaka & Fuji did the exact same double team move twice?
