You'd wish the ground staff would help you pre-entry to get you through the passport controls quicker, because that's where the biggest bottleneck is.
I remember someone saying here on FT a year or two ago, 90min gate to gate, NRT to HND. Now we are worrying about 2hr intl-dom transit within the same airport.
Even with a pre-booked car service leaving the second you exit the terminal, 90 minutes gate to gate from NRT to HND would always have required a fair bit of good fortunes.
I fly in and out of Haneda quite a bit, and spending more than 30 minutes from landing on an international flight to being at the monorail platform is very rare. There are exceptions, but generally I would never be concerned for a two hour int to dom connection.
