Guest Tim Cooke Report post Posted July 14, 2003 Get an Otani comp from Lynch or Highspots w these matches 1/21/96 Otani v Samurai 3/1/96 Otani v Kakihara (UWF-I) 3/17/96 Otani v Liger 3/20/96 Otani v Benoit 6/17/96 Otani v Sakuraba 8/2/94 Otani v Negro Casas 8/4/96 Otani v Dragon 2/9/97 Otani v Liger This gives you Otani as a NJ Junior, working equal in a UWF-I match, working with a luchador, etc. Tim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted July 14, 2003 Benoit/Otani vs Black Tiger/Great Sasuke 10/18/94- This was the finals in the junior tag tournament. These teams also had a great match earlier in the tournament Benoit vs Otani 5/26/94? This has Otani fighting as an underdog against the experienced Benoit- There's also a handheld match of Benoit vs Otani which is worth seeing as well around 94ish. I'm not sure of the dates of these matches at all though. Otani vs Ultimo 1/4/98 Great reversals in this one Everyone should make sure to check out as much Otani as possable. He's definitely one of the most enjoyable wrestlers out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
