Amidst the fierce battle, fans were astonished as the hot-blooded wrestler's hair stood on end, prompting the commentator to exclaim, "He looks just like a Super Saiyan."
Ilja Dragunov faced off against Jey Uso. Dragunov, who was promoted from the developmental brand "NXT" in the WWE Draft, has been drawing attention with his intense character. His hair standing on end during the match caused a stir, with fans saying it looked like "that popular manga character."
The match between Jey, one of "RAW's" top performers, and Dragunov was a fierce battle where both unleashed their signature moves. Dragunov, known for his passionate fighting style, delivered two consecutive German suplexes from behind, and as he went for the third, Jey countered with a superkick and an uppercut. Dragunov responded with an enzuigiri, leading to a back-and-forth struggle.
Further into the match, Dragunov attempted his finisher, the "Constantine Special," a clothesline executed with the momentum of a 619 turn between the ropes, but Jey kicked out at 2.5. At this moment, Dragunov's blonde hair suddenly stood on end, and his expression became ferocious.
Commentator Shigeki Seino, witnessing this scene, exclaimed, "His hair looks like it's standing up. He really looks like a Super Saiyan." Fans, seeing his familiar appearance, reacted with comments like "He's a real Super Saiyan" and "Super Dragunov."
Following this, Dragunov continued to captivate Japanese fans with moves reminiscent of Japanese wrestlers, such as Kenta Kobashi's "Machine Gun Chop" and Shinjiro Otani's "Face Wash."
In last week's "RAW," Dragunov showcased his finisher "H-Bomb," delivering it while blood poured from his forehead, accompanied by his over-the-top finishing pose that stirred excitement and was described as "an incredibly intense man." Although he narrowly lost to Jey's "Uso Splash" this week, Dragunov's soul-draining "hot-blooded fight" is likely to continue to garner attention and popularity in the future. (ABEMA/WWE 'RAW')
