The original pro wrestler Tiger Mask, Satoru Sayama, was an amazing grappler who went on to found SHOOTO. We knew the guy in the mask could go. Making it all effects is kinda...meh.

Transformation? Hm, I don't know how that'll fly really (and no that wasn't a wrestling pun X3). Live action stuff really isn't a surefire way of doing it right.

I wish they'd remake the anime series one more time so I could somehow see it subbed honestly.

Meh, I was hoping for something more authentic to what an actual wrester would wear.

For comparison- The original Tiger Mask costume when used by New Japan Pro Wrestling in a match against Bret Hart (Yes, that Bret Hart). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k585pCaPjuM
