might be right for you
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
anime for wrestling fans
the moment you step in you lock it down
with your hip like this also you want to
twist your shoulder inward uh right for
this list we’re looking at shows that
either pay homage make reference to
embody the spirit of or just plain focus
on professional wrestling so if you’re
already a Jerico holic but not an anime
fan maybe this list will convince you
otherwise
number 10 want to be the strongest in
the world
forget the diva revolution it’s time for
the waifu revolution when the young idol
Elena is injured by a professional
wrestler her singing partner and close
friend Sakura vows to take revenge by
becoming a wrestler herself
this show is loaded with all the drop
kicks lariat and compromising submission
holds you need to get your fix and while
it’s true that wanna be the strongest
certainly isn’t the most intellectually
enriching anime around you might just
get a heap of fun watching it number
nine Naruto franchise wait what no
seriously
now so actually contains a ton of
wrestling references especially when you
get into the Shippuden series most of
all the Recon game this absolute
pinnacle of manliness lays the smackdown
his tools of destruction wrestling moves
like the lariat and a sit-out powerbomb
that’ll make dave bautista green with
envy outside of that if you’re a fan of
the underdogs this series will have you
rooting for Naruto as he goes from
complete job or – well I guess you’re
gonna have to wait and see if you ever
lay a hand on my sensei oh kill you
number eight one punch man holding a
torch in Tangela none devil itis this
series focuses on Saitama a hero whose
name implies exactly what he’s capable
of defeating any opponent with a single
punch
Valachi Matta
the only problem is that being the best
can get a little boring he soon finds a
burst of new inspiration when realizing
that he can find fame and fortune by
becoming a professional hero but his
efforts go quite unnoticed like an indie
darling trying to make it into the WWE
it combines the elements of action and
comedy almost perfectly mazdan number 7
jujin liger
does that name and theme song sound a
little familiar to well this is the
series that the famous junior
heavyweight wrestler Jushin Thunder
liger originated from
back in the late 80s he adopted this
persona as it means to promote the anime
series it just so happens that the
gimmick has outlived the series by
decades this show is a little hard to
get your hands on these days but if you
want to see the origins of the liger
bombing legend it just might be worth it
number six one piece this anime is
perhaps the most popular running series
worldwide and as you’d guess it contains
a feast of pro-wrestling OMA jizz look
Nico Robin you’ve got characters that
are clear references to superstars like
span dam and white beard and even a
guest appearance from minora Suzuki
needless to say the fights drama and
huge villains will give you the same
thrill is watching pro wrestling you
can’t escape
number 5 Fist of the North Star
this one’s an oldie but goodie in the
post-apocalyptic age of 19 XX the lone
wanderer Kenshiro steps up to take down
the nastiest sob in town using the
Hokuto Shinken
a technique that focuses on the body’s
pressure points with deadly results Fist
of the North Star holds some of the most
brutal fights in anime complete with
broken arms and exploding heads if
that’s not enough to sell it to you
rumor has it that it’s John Cena’s
favorite show I am about that like that
no no I won’t get my raisi up in here
number 4 hide you may know Evo series ha
first ah all right
we know that wrestling and boxing are
like apples and oranges but this show
could grip anyone who’s interested in
either following the story of Evo a
young man who is constantly bullied we
see his untapped potential for throwing
punches come into blue
from championship matches to fistfights
with goddamn bears Hajime no Ippo has
got some hot-blooded brawls that capture
the intensity of some of your favorite
wrestling bouts end of the line this
series is gonna get you heated number
three Dragon Ball Z and he’s down for
the count if you were wondering what the
hell new day was wearing at WrestleMania

all time DBZ is a non-stop adrenaline
rush
there’s Super Saiyans the enemy
equivalent of hulking up heated feuds
and even a couple of references along
the way making it a treat for any
wrestling fan and if we’re preaching to
the choir and you already love Dragon
Ball why not check out the new sequel
Dragon Ball super
number two kindiy Kumaon franchise what
I’m gonna make you got it – a pin looked
uncle

usually think of this classic series the
show combines all the best fundamentals
of pro wrestling with the imaginative
nature of anime focusing primarily on
kinnikuman an idiot prince who aims to
become a hero the show may look a little
goofy at first glance but it’s
surprisingly intense warpless you know
women drama see the 2000 sequel known as
ultimate muscle in the West ad it’s an
even more awesome fights to the mix even
modern wrestlers pay homage to this
series such as Samoa Joe with his
finisher the muscle buster before we

lager tiger mask found his origins in
anime back in the late 1960s fortunately
