The Rolling Escargot, Balance Bridge (the second), Hariyama and Hang Move were used in ANW under different names. (Spinning Wheel, Tilting Table, Pole Grasper and Floating Chains)

Only 3 Americans have ever beaten some form of the Cliffhanger in Sasuke:
Travis Schrader (4), Kane Kosugi (8), and Drew Drechsel (32).

I made a rule of not adding any trivia nonsense into my main post, but I'm going to break that here. This fact is remarkable, it just showcases how damn badly the cliffhanger has annihilated Americans, right from Paul Terek and the Hamm brothers all the way to Sasuke 27, and most recently with Brent of course.

I don't think the Hamm brothers tried the cliffhanger though? But Terek got ANNIHILATED by it lol

Speaking of the cliffhanger Nagano has TRULY failed the cliffhanger once, Ultimate Cliffhanger in 27 (Yes he did fail the Shin-cliffhanger in 18 but he went off course so tbf he didn't fall in the water). Yuuji can say he's just failed one iteration of the cliffhanger as well (Crazy Cliffhanger) but since then he hasn't even gotten back there to avenge that fall... EVEN SHINGO has this distinction too failing the altered version only. Yamada too on the original! There may be others but I don't remember off the top of my head...

The only all star of the 5 to have technically attempted Roller Hill who did not fail it was the only who had not faced its predecessor the Maruta Nobori: Makoto Nagano

Morimoto Yūsuke achieved Kanzenseiha with #91, the same position he wore in his debut in SASUKE 18

Morimoto Yūsuke achieved Kanzenseiha with #91, the same position he wore in his debut in SASUKE 18 He's also just the 2nd person to reach the Final Stage with that number. For that matter, of the last eleven competitor numbers (#s 90-100), only #90 and #98 have never gone to the Final Stage. 90: 0 91: 2 (Kane, Yusuke) 92: 1 (Lee) 93: 1 (Yuuji (24)) 94: 2 (Kong, Ryo (30)) 95: 1 (Okuyama) 96: 3 (Hasegawa, Nagano (11), Kanno) 97: 3 (Omori (1), Tanaka, Shingo (7)) 98: 0 99: 3 (Omori (2), Nagano (17), Yuuji (27)) 100: 4 (Omori (3), Nagano (12, 13, 23)

#4, 8, 12, 15, 16, 21, 26, 27, 33, and #37 have never passed the First Stage.
#2, 5-7, 9, 11, 14, 17, 19, 22-25, 28, 29, 32, 34, 36, 38, 39, 41, 44, 45, 47, 48, 51-53, 55, 56, 75, 78, and #82 have never passed the Second Stage.
#1, 3, 10, 18, 20, 30, 31, 35, 40, 42, 43, 46, 50, 57, 58, 60, 61, 63-66, 68-71, 73, 74, 76, 79-81, 83, 84, 88, 90, and #98 have never passed the Third Stage.
Any number that isn't 86, 91, 93, or 99 has never achieved Kanzenseiha.

Now I really hope #33 in 33 will clear with 33 seconds left.

The only all star of the 5 to have technically attempted Roller Hill who did not fail it was the only who had not faced its predecessor the Maruta Nobori: Makoto Nagano This "fact" is incorrect; Nagano did attempt (and clear) the Maruta Nobori in SASUKE 7---his run, however, was cut from the broadcast. In response to TCM's fact, I'm still shocked that #98 is yet to make it to the Final Stage. Shingo in SASUKE 5 was the closest it has been to doing so. Also, here are two facts that I have regarding SASUKE 13: 1.) SASUKE 13 is the only tournament in which at least one All-Star failed in each stage (Akiyama in Stage 1, Shingo in Stage 2, Takeda and Shiratori in Stage 3, and Nagano in the Final). 2.) To my knowledge, SASUKE 13 is the only tournament in which no foreigners are known to have competed.
