Hailing from the land of the Rising Sun, the "Japanese Buzzsaw" Yoshihiro Tajiri comes armed with an arsenal of some of the hardest hitting kicks in the Pro Wrestling game.

Meshing a combination of shoot style kicks, Lucha Libre aerial maneuvers, and a unique variety of mat wrestling and pinning combinations, Tajiri can defeat his opponents in any number of ways.

Tajiri is the creator of The Tarantula, a unique maneuver where he entraps his opponent's arms and legs between the ring ropes and Tajiri himself.

Utilizing a brainbuster as his favorite finishing maneuver, Tajiri had won over the Extreme Championship Wrestling fan base, later shocking them when he aligned himself with The Network.

That alliance lasted until Cyrus demanded Tajiri hand the World Television Championship over to The Network, leaving the Japanese Buzzsaw with nothing. They found out exactly what every Japanese wrestling promoter that ever worked with Tajiri has learned. You don't push Yoshihiro Tajiri around.

Tajiri valiantly fought against The Network, before falling to the massive Rhino. This loss saw Tajiri win the respect of the ECW fans and send his career into that of a new direction: defender of Extreme Championship Wrestling.

Aligning himself most recently with Mikey Whipwreck and the Sinister Minister, Tajiri continues to buzzsaw his way through International competition here in Extreme Championship Wrestling. After his sensational victory with Whipwreck in the ECW World Tag Team championship tournament, the unlikely duo have proven themselves as one of the most popular and successful teams in ECW history.

Whether it be singles or tag team competition, Yoshihiro Tajiri is one of the most dangerous performers in Extreme Championship Wrestling.
