I mean...it just looks ridiculous.
It's like Chris Farley in Beverly Hills Ninja trying to look tough...but with green mist thrown in.

I actually want to know the inverse - will anything save the Lord Tensai gimmick? Because this thing is just an all-around disaster so far.

They need to close the book on what they think Tensai should be. It just ain't working out. Still call him Lord Tensai and keep Sakamoto, but have him wrestle like he normally would. This Japanese shit is killing him.

Why does this thread feel so familiar? It's a running gag that still has legs for at least another couple of weeks or so.

I can't tell if any of these threads are being serious anymore.

I've defended him since he debuted, and I'm done. Tensai blows, that thing is going nowhere.
However, I voted "maybe so", becuase that's what we're supposed to vote for. Fall in line, heathens.

Not his mannerisms, but his constant "HISS SSSSHIISSS" will.

This Japanese s*** is killing him. I'm beginning to agree. I'm a huge fan of Muta, Tajiri and numerous others cut from the same character cloth, but it just seems ill-fitting for the guy. Looking at his work in Japan, he should be presented more like Vader. Maybe give him some wild entrance getup, but the mysterious ninja thing just doesn't suit him.

I voted "maybe so" as well. This is like the fifth straight week. That's dedication. "Maybe so" definitely maybe deserves to win this poll.

That Botchamania ending from a while ago with the NFL Blitz announcer always makes me think of "ALBERT!" so I voted that.

It's always been lame. Heard so much about improvement, haven't seen any though.
