10 Wrestlers Who Slapped The Leg (And You Never Noticed)

5. Tajiri

During his WWE heyday, former Cruiserweight Champion Tajiri was largely known for pulling off two devastating acts.

The first being blinding his opponents with a variety of colourful mists spat in their faces. While his other (some would say equally) savage trademark weapon came in the form of some of the most vicious kicks to have ever taken place inside of Vince McMahon's ring.

Yet, had the 'Japanese Buzzsaw' not been ridiculously gifted in the art of sneakily producing a wince-inducing snapping sound whenever his foot connected with his rival's mug, that latter tool would likely have been left forgotten in the annals of wrestling.

But insanely skilled he was, and convince fans around the world that he'd quite literally just walloped his colleague in the chops he did...time and time again.

If you needed a reminder of just how magnificently Tajiri consistently utilised the now-frowned upon leg slap, the veteran also put on an absolute clinic in regards to implementing the device during his Cruiserweight Classic return back in 2016.
