Bob Sapp vs Manabu Nakanishi -NJPW  Tokyo Dome 10/14/02

Bob Sapp has the look! I remember really wanting him to wrestle stateside but this match really exposes his limitations. He moves really stiff and does not seem to have the best instincts. I have seen maybe 5 Nakanishi matches, I think all I remember is he is the guy who does a torture rack. LO & Behold we get dueling Torture Racks. Sapp is a big boy to get up there. I think they chose Nakanishi because of his size to have a battle of the bulls. Opening bombs, Sapp a powerbomb, Nakanishi a slam. Then usual shoulder tackles to establish Sapp as a beast. Dueling Torture Racks I’m a mark for the Rack. Bizarre ending as both try to tune up the band only for Sapp to hit a drop kick to win the match by Countout. With dedication and training, Sapp coulda been somebody but he was no natural.
