Genechiro Tenryu

Can somebody please tell me what in the world is Tenryu's "53 Year Old"?

[Jason]

I believe that's the name of his elbow drop off the second drop.

[Luds]

That's not the best name for a move that's for sure...

What is he gonna do next year? Call it the 54 year old?

Hopefully Retire

Don't be so harsh! Tenryu did wrestle the match of teh year against Mutoh in 2001, and possibly again in 2002 against Kojima!

He can still go... and much more than some guys his age and younger (Fujinami, Choshu...)

I agree with Luds. Tenryu isn't Rusher Kimura or Mitsuo Momota or Haruka Eigen so he should be allowed to wrestle until he becomes like them.

[GlobalHonored]

And don't forget the "classics" against Choshu from this year. Wow!

By the way, I didn't say anything about Eigen, Momota or Rusher so leave them out of it. I love those guys. Eigen is the best opening attraction in wrestling. I wish they had Fuchi to join them. Soon perhaps.

[The Franceman]

Maybe he discovered the to-rope elbow drop at 53?

[Luds]

No he's been doing that Elbow Drop for a while

[Sofa Kingdom]

I've read somewhere that the 53 Years Old is Tenryu's version of the Jackhammer.

Look at it this way, at least he is not Hogan. Tenryu can still go.

The 53 Year Old is a Brainbuster

[Pheonix_Chi25]

Thank's I.A.T
I always thought it was his Lariat or his Powerbomb.

[Spunkwhy]

The 53 Years Old is Tenryu's odd sheer drop Jackhammer. Or just think of it as a brainbuster where he sort of floats over.

Kind of like Cena's F.U. which is a Death Valley Slam right?
