GOT Wrestle Fest Fan Thread

WWE have announced the signing of KENTA, probably the best Japanese wrestler of the last 10 years. He was the guy that invented/first popularised both CM Punk and Daniel Bryan's finishing moves.

KENTA will start off in NXT next month. I just hope they don't bury this guy and make him into another Yoshi Tatsu jobber type, because it would be a criminal waste of his talent.

Hulk Hogan and Jimmy Hart announced the signing, along with KENTA, during an in-ring contract signing ceremony during WWE's show in Tokyo, Japan last night:

 
I've never actually seen him wrestle and he might be as good as his rep suggests....

...but his name really annoys me. It's like if Steve Austin had just called himself STEVE rather than changing his name from Williams to Austin.

How will he fit in WWE? Can he actually wrestle their style or does he just drop people on their heads and spend half the match giving and recieving chops to the chest?

His full name is Kenta Kobayashi but as it's close in name to Japanese legend Kenta Kobashi, he stylised his first name in capitals to differentiate. As mentioned he originated the GTS and also uses the Busaiku Knee that Daniel Bryan introduced when he won the WWE title last summer
