Yoshiaki Fujiwara Will Still Yield Fruit in Old Age, He Shall Be Full of Sap and Very Green

Yoshiaki Fujiwara v. Atsushi Aoki AJPW 1/3/16- GREAT

He is still doing it, 2016 and Fujiwara is still doing his thing. He looks 60 when he was 30, so he is sort of a weirdo wrestling Pharell Williams where you can never really tell his age. With worse video quality this match could have been from the 80s or 90s. This match started out with grappling and that part was truly world class, with Fujiwara still looking like a master, lots of nifty counters and moments of sharp unexpected violence. I especially loved Fujiwara offering a handshake to this young kid which he then turns into a Fujiwara armbar, classic smirking dick Fujiwara. They then go into sort of a time killing section where Fujiwara and Aoki headbutt ringposts, and then back into another cool grappling part with Fujiwara finding a way to get the submission. If we had excised the headbutt section I might have had this as an EPIC which is nuts because Fujiwara is in his MID SIXTIES!! (or maybe he is a vampire who got bit when he was 52 and will be 52 forever)

COMPLETE AND ACCURATE FUJIWARA

He never had stomach cancer, they replaced his internal organs with a plutonium fusion reactor.
