When looking back at his 20-plus year career, Dango was asked to share his favorite time from his career and he settled on his last NXT run. Yeah, so I still do it but just more sporadically now. I’ll never get old or hurt.’ Now, the camera could walk out of here, you’d see me like limping a little bit so, pick a finisher guys that does not require you landing on your ass every night off the top rope. But somebody told me when I first started - I started doing it in 1999 and someone’s like, ‘Dude, you’re gonna wanna pick a different finisher.’ I’m like, ‘Screw you. There’s only so many times you can that man. But, even on live events, Vince didn’t want me to do it on live events in WWE just to preserve my body. I pick and choose more now where I do it. Dango encouraged up and coming talents to not select a finisher that requires them to land with the same force and in the same manner that a top leg drop does. When he was in WWE, Vince McMahon told him not to perform the move at house shows because he wanted Dango to preserve his body. He talked about the toll that the move has taken on his body after doing it for over two decades. It’s a niche community of professional wrestling where, you know, your friends help you out and point you in the right direction.ĭango’s finisher is a top rope leg drop. I suggest turning your phone off for a day or two, just kind of relax and… but it’s not all negative because you get overwhelmed with a lot of your friends that reach out to you and see how you’re doing and make sure everything’s okay, if you need anything. They got it from somebody else or it’s just overwhelming, it’s a lot to take in. I don’t know how everybody gets your number - or my number… Yeah, I don’t know. I had a good run and I was kind of already speaking with WWE about possibly coaching down the road and you know, you mentally prepare yourself for that call and it didn’t seem real though for a couple months after because you live your life for so long under contract and it’s - I guess the first thing was… everyone bombards you and they want you to come do signings for ‘em and stuff like that. So, I was 37 at the time, you kind of see the writing on the wall. I think we kind of saw the writing on the wall. As Dango was doing a virtual signing with Captain’s Corner, he shared that he had already been speaking to WWE about transitioning to a coaching role prior to his release. Towards the end of his time in WWE, he and Tyler Breeze began working with the NXT brand and during their time there, they captured NXT Tag Team Titles. Dango is currently working around the independent scene and is regularly featured in the NWA. He started with the company in 2006 and wrapped up in 2021 after being released from his deal. This would work perfectly for Breeze because, a) it’s unique for WWE right now, which would do more to help him improve his ‘image’ b) it’s used by a recent rival of his, and using Liger’s move would be a great reason to continue the feud between them, should WWE decide to further that feud and c) it looks far more impressive than a spinning heel kick that’s considered a regular move on WWE’s main roster.Dango was interested in transitioning to a coaching role in WWE.įor 15 years of his pro wrestling career, Dirty Dango a.k.a. Popularized by Jushin Liger, the Fisherman Buster looks very impressive on TV, even though it might appear as nothing more than a Perfect-Plex without the cradling pin. There are few wrestlers in WWE who use any ‘Fisherman’ moves right now, making this a perfect opportunity for Breeze to use such a move for his finisher. If it doesn’t work for a wrestler as massive for Rusev, what makes anyone think that it’ll work for Breeze when he debuts on the main roster? This is difficult to believe, especially since Rusev does an almost-identical move on the main roster, but it never wins a match or even leads to a close call. That said, we’re expected to believe that his current finisher, the ‘Beauty Shot’ is not only effective, but powerful enough for him to end a match. His gimmick is unique for NXT, and his wrestling style complements his vanity. Tyler Breeze is one of those wrestlers whose character work is far more pronounced than their wrestling skills.
