Yoshi Tatsu's New Look

[Onyx]

I don't see this new attire or a heel turn even helping this guy's career.

Aww! Have faith in Yoshi. Don't be such a bummer mate. Yoshi could go far as Funaki, TAKA Michinoku, Tajiri, Jimmy Wang Yang, Kenzo Suzuki, etc (I'm a fan of the Asian WWE Superstars... and really good WWE History memory skills). So be positive and have a bit of faith in Yoshi Tatsu

None of those Asian Superstars really did all that much. We all know Taka was the first Lightheavyweight Champion, which was a big deal at the time. Funaki lasted the longest out of all of them. Tajiri won the most titles in his WWE stint, so if there's anyone you'd want Tatsu to wind up following in the footsteps of it's him. Jimmy and Kenzo were a joke.

It's an interesting look, but I don't think it's going to get him anywhere. I guess only time will tell, though. I just can't see them pushing Tatsu with all the young talent they have.

This I agree with. Yoshi doesn't have the factors of being a star in Professional Wrestling. This turn is basically looking like a last resort to keep him relevant.

I wouldn't go as far as to calling Jimmy Yang a joke. He has at least been a successful wrestler outside of WWE compared to Kenzo Suzuki who apparently flops everywhere he goes. Yoshi should at least be glad he isn't anything like Kenzo.

Yeah, I meant specifically his WWE stint.

Well if WWE can use Tatsu as a good heel if you ask me. But I want to quote you on what you said about Jimmy. Jimmy Wang Yang kicked arse before the PG Era (not when he was Akio) when the Cruiserweight Title was still around. It shows how much you paid attention to his matches, from how you just underrated him. Jimmy Wang Yang jobbed in the PG Era most of the time, because WWE's Cruiserweight Division was so screwed up, that they always made him go up against guys like Kane, Big Show, Mark Henry, The Great Khali, etc. They did the same for all the other unused Cruiserweights. And I'm not trying to have a go or anything, but I had to correct you on your ignorance is all. But I will admit, Kenzo Suzuki didn't do much in the Ruthless Aggression Era, but at least the Ruthless Era, did something with it's Cruiserweights.

Jimmy Wang Yang was tied down because his gimmick, plain and simple. Novelty gimmicks get old quickly. I'm not sure what gimmick or look would have worked with him, but in the ring he's one of the most entertaining Asian wrestlers WWE has ever had. If he was still around we wouldn't need Sin Cara, or even Evan Bourne.
