- Adaptation Displacement: The wrestler is far more famous and long lasting than the anime that inspired his gimmick.
- Awesome Music: The theme song for The Jushin Liger anime serves as his theme music. Listen to both versions here
- Funny Moments: The Legendary Asshole of Jushin Thunder Liger. To break it down: Liger got in a 10-man tag match at PWG's BOLA 2016 along with Tommaso Ciampa, Sami Callihan, Chuck Taylor, Jeff Cobb, Matt Riddle, Pete Dunne, Thomas Budgen, Cedric Alexander, and Brian Kendrick. Liger manages to somehow trap Ciampa's thumb up his butt, leading to every other participant to jam their thumbs into each others' butts, leading to a conga line that is walked around the ring by Liger before he hip-tosses all of them in one fell swoop. It makes just as much sense in context, and it's awesome.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: Mere months after Liger made his one-time appearance for WWE's NXT promotion, it was announced that four of New Japan's top stars (AJ Styles, Doc/Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson and Shinsuke Nakamura) would make the jump to WWE on a more permanent basis.
