The victory elevated Shamrock to star status and launched the MMA career of both men. Masakatsu got his first victory at the next event, showing his submission skills by catching <a href="/wiki/Ryushi_Yanagisawa" class="mw-redirect" title="Ryushi Yanagisawa">Ryushi Yanagisawa</a> first in a <a href="/wiki/Leglock#Heel_hook" title="Leglock">heel hook</a> and later in a <a href="/wiki/Leglock#Kneebar" title="Leglock">kneebar</a> in under two minutes for the victory. He would then face Dutch fighter Cees Bezems, who threw illegal closed-fisted punches during the match. In response, Funaki executed a takedown and submitted him with a top wrist lock; after the tap out, Funaki again locked in the hold as revenge, and had to be restrained by the referee. Funaki closed the first four Pancrase events with a win against <a href="/wiki/Kazuo_Takahashi" title="Kazuo Takahashi">Kazuo "Yoshiki" Takahashi</a>, overwhelming him with palm strikes and knees to the face for the KO. </p><p>Opening 1994, Funaki faced another Dutch martial arts exponent in the form of <a href="/wiki/Bas_Rutten" title="Bas Rutten">Bas Rutten</a>.

Finally, Funaki faced Ken Shamrock for a third time at the finals, but although Masakatsu was able to fend Ken off for several minutes, he was mounted and submitted with an arm triangle choke, the same hold Shamrock had used in their first match. </p><p>In 1995, after taking revenge on Jason DeLucia by defeating him via submission, Funaki was pitted against <a href="/wiki/Frank_Shamrock" title="Frank Shamrock">Frank Shamrock</a>, Ken's adoptive brother and next rising star of the company. Funaki again showed his newfound affinity for working from the bottom, fending Frank off from his guard and catching him in a triangle choke/kimura combination for a rope escape, before finishing him with a toehold. Funaki's next match would be an upset loss to former Shooto fighter <a href="/wiki/Manabu_Yamada" title="Manabu Yamada">Manabu Yamada</a>, in which Yamada flipped over a mount and caught Funaki in a heel hook for the finish. Funaki bounced back against Pancrase rookie <a href="/wiki/Guy_Mezger" title="Guy Mezger">Guy Mezger</a> in a back and forth match, which saw Mezger dominating the action with kicks, strikes and pressure until Funaki clamped an achilles lock to get the win. </p><p>Funaki's last high level bout in 1995 would be a rematch with Frank Shamrock. Funaki mocked Frank, keeping his hands low and even throwing a flying spinning heel kick in an instance, but he was caught in a choke and forced to spend a rope escape before returning the favor with a triangle armbar. Funaki got the advantage in points with a rolling toehold, but he then was shockingly forced to tap out in a leglock exchange, losing the match. In his biography, Shamrock claims to believe that Funaki <a href="/wiki/Match_fixing" title="Match fixing">took a dive</a> and allowed himself to be defeated in order to build Frank's popularity.<sup id="cite_ref-Uncaged_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Uncaged-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>At Pancrase 1996 Anniversary Show, Masakatsu challenged King of Pancrase <a href="/wiki/Bas_Rutten" title="Bas Rutten">Bas Rutten</a> in what is considered to be one of the greatest fights in Pancrase history.

Funaki made a wide usage of the <a href="/wiki/Knee-on-stomach" title="Knee-on-stomach">knee-on-stomach</a> and mount positions to initiate leglock attacks, but the Dutchman countered every time and eventually pushed Masakatsu away from him, after which Funaki threw an illegal kick to Rutten, who was on his knees. Rutten proceeded to knock Funaki down with a palm strike, and then completely broke his nose with a second palm strike. Stunned, Funaki tried to stand up with Rutten, only for Bas to capitalize with his famed striking game.
