Kenta Kobashi vs Toshiaki Kawada (AJPW 10/18/96)
Nearly a classic for me. You get the sense they’re filling time and Kobashi starts a leg targeting story that never really goes anywhere
Still it’s a glorious hour of crazy bomb throwing that absolutely breezes by. One where both men play their roles to absolute perfection.
****.5

Kenta Kobashi vs Toshiaki Kawada (10/18/96)
Kobashi’s first defence as champion is an hour of brutal bumps and high emotion
Kawada fights from above here, something we’re not used to seeing. He’s awesome at dishing out punishment
When we feel like victory is in Kobashi’s grasp. Time limit draw.

Very fun compact match, a great way to crown Taue as AJPW’s new monster.
The finish leaves a lot unanswered. Did Taue get lucky? Or was he truly able to outlast the ace?
Accomplishes what it has to in a satisfying way and sets us up for the future

Mitsuharu Misawa vs Akira Taue (05/24/96)
Misawa jumps Taue early, attempts to ground him with the sleeper, to no avail.
The Misawa elbow is used as a defensive strategy here to stop Taue’s onslaught, to no avail
It seems Misawa is catching up, but Taue catches him to end the match out of nowhere
