"This dude is fucking awesome!" Jerryvonkramer

"He was one of the best in the world at his peak in the 80s. He started to fall off a bit but I think he was still one eyeglass-company-owning money mark away from being a great in the early 90s." Dave Musgrave

"It's become cool to slag on him but his innovation did a lot for in-ring action." Dave Musgrave

"It's funny, even though it's his most famous run I'm not really voting for Tiger Mask. It's one thing to be a hugely influential figure in one style, but to be that in TWO styles and to the degree Sayama was is just mindblowing. I'm not crazy over his junior run but there is plenty of junior wrestling I have loved over the years and Sayama was a key figure there and as you may have figured out by now I kind of like shoot style. I've never disliked his work and when you combine his influence with him being enjoyable to me in so many different setting (rookie, World Of Sport, junior, old fat guy) with an amazing 1984-1985 run in UWF that's quite the resume."
