1.funks vs brody/snuka rwtl81

 

Historically important angle. Worth getting just for that. Would be even more worth it with the 2/4/82 Baba/Hansen tacked on afterwards.

 

2.tsuruta/tenru vs hansen/brody rwtl83

3.hansen/dibiase vs tsuruta/tenru rwtl86

 

Who's Tenru?

 

Anyway, don't waste your time on the 86 match -- the Hansen/DiBiase vs. Jumbo/Tenryu tags were all disappointing. Some have liked the 83 match, but no one I'd really put my faith in.

 

4.hansen/gordy vs tenru/kawada rwtl88

 

Excellent match, generally overrated by the world at large, but important.

 

5.misawa/kawada vs tsuruta/taue 9/7/91

 

Excellent match, but it would help to have some of the previous encounters and 6-mans and matches vs. Doc/Gordy along with this. 90-91 is when everything in the AJ main event starts making sense as a whole.

 

6.kawada vs steve williams 4/16/94

 

Great match, but certainly not in my top 10 for 90s AJ, or even top 5-10 for 90s singles matches. But worth it.

 

7.misawa/akiyama vs kawada/taue rwtl96

 

Assuming this is the final (they had 3 matches in the tournament), I would say don't get it. Yeah, it's a Super Classico, but the thrust of it is lost without these matches before it:

 

12/16/88 Kawada/Tenryu vs. Hansen/Gordy (which you have above)

12/3/93 Misawa/Kobashi vs. Kawada/Taue

6/9/95 Misawa/Kobashi vs. Kawada/Taue

7/24/95 Misawa vs. Kawada

9/10/95 Misawa vs. Taue

3/2/96 Kobashi/Akiyama vs. Kawada/Taue

5/23/96, 7/9/96, RWTL League Matches: Misawa/Akiyama vs. Kawada/Taue

5/24/96 Misawa vs. Taue

6/7/96 Misawa/Akiyama vs. Kawada/Taue

 

They're all interconnected and seeing them in order makes everything fall into place for the RWTL Final.

 

8.misawa/kobashi vs kawada/taue 12/9/95 rwtl95

 

They had several better matches, but if you're looking to grab one to see what they can do without spoiling the best, this isn't a bad pick.

 

9.misawa/akiyama vs williams/ace 6/7/96 ajpw tv

 

See above.

 

10.pegasus/ohtani vs sasuke/black tiger sg tag league 94 njpw

 

Don't bother with this unless you get the league match and the final together.

 

13.njpw tv wpw 6/11/96 benoit vs black tiger

 

Get the full version or don't bother.

 

15.liger vs sasuke battle formation 96

 

Both of their '94 matches are a good sight better than this.

 

16.bosj96 liger vs black tiger

17.jcrown96 dragon vs ohtani

 

Good choices.

 

23.flair vs tenru 2/3 falls 9/15/92

 

This is '82 (or maybe some other year, but definitely 80s). Highly unlikely it's from WAR, and SWS was closed by then. Haven't seen any Flair/Tenryu matches to know how it'd be, though.

 

34.new years giant series 97 misawa vs kobashi

35.new years giant series 97 williams/ace vs kawada/taue

 

Both of these are excellent. And I hope you mean "comps," rather than "comp," because this is several tapes' worth of footage. And do you even like this stuff? If you're getting Misawa/Kobashi and the 96 RWTL final, it sounds like you haven't seen much, so why get so much of it all at once?

I would agree with Tom on this one. Lots of great matches, but if you haven't seen the stuff that Tom mentions then you WOULD be missing out. Take you time and get matches like this bit by bit....you'll understand the stuff better in the long run. Some of it might go over your head otherwise.......

Well,I do like the puro that I have seen.I haven't seen a ton of it but here is some of the stuff I like

 

misawa-tsuruta-both 1990 matches

misawa-kawada 6/94

hansen-kobashi 7/93

williams-kobashi-9/94

misawa/kobashi-kawada/taue 6/9/95 (best tag match ever imo)

hansen-kawada 2/93
