Choshu/Hashimoto vs Ishikawa/Tenryu; fucking killer tag. Tenryu’s smart and daring enough to play this vulture heel to Choshu and prods Hashimoto constantly after the first kick, taking swings at either when he sees the chance.

I got a couple hours til I have to get on a plane so I’mma spend that time watching more Tenryu matches lol

19 years ago,we lost a legend in sherri martel. Greatest valet ever. She could bump & take a beating, yet gain no sympathy as a heel. Was amazing with randy savage. Could get over anywhere, including japan & mexio. Watch savage vs tenryu ajpw 1990 or aaa 1993-1994 For proof. I missed out on the opportunity of a lifetime in getting to work with her in wcw 1994. I would later with sherri in 1999 at apocalypse wrestling in canada. Sherri carried me to my only good match & put me over. Total professional and class act. I was lucky to see sherri a year before her death

Tenryu/Kitahara/Ishikawa/Hara/Fuyuki vs Fujinami/Choshu/Hase/Kido/Iizuka, NJPW(16/2/1993) ****1/2

Sorry I didn't make the G1 qualifying rounds. I was hoping for a BIG JA'G-1' this year. Tenryu made his G1 debut at 48... so I have a little time! Maybe I could become the oldest person to debut in G1? 🏆 ROY... let's go for the strong qualifying win!! GRIP the G1! #NJPW #TMDK

Genichiro Tenryu/Takashi Ishikawa vs Tatsumi Fujinami/Hiroshi Hase, WAR(14/12/1993) ****1/4

嵐山・天龍寺前にて、奇跡の遭遇。 格好よすぎる武者さんに出会いました。 Kyoto never ceases to amaze me. Met a cool samurai warrior in front of Tenryu-ji Temple! #嵐山観光 #京都の景色 #武者姿 #天龍寺 #嵐山

This and the Tenryu match is what happens when a punk ass rookie messes with a level 110 legend.

Genichiro Tenryu, Yoshihiro Takayama & Kensuke Sasaki. This is like the Vienna Congress of the baddest dudes to ever grace the squared circle. ☠️

we gotta see kojima-tenryu soon

Jumbo Tsuruta x Genichiro Tenryu. One of the most iconic matches in the history of AJPW & Budokan Hall. (6.5.1989) 🌟

Continuing the Tenryu deep dive with this 96 match against Muta; I really adore that Tenryu plays it super straight faced. Not pictured but also I swear two separate chops Tenryu gives to Muta makes Muta mist, it’s great. Also Tenryu bleeds pretty hard, it’s great.
