Which is better? Miswawa vs. Kobashi or Kawada

[villano619]

Classic epic battles. Which did Misawa have the better matches with? Extremely tough choice. With Kobashi they had excellent matches where they came up with brand new moves and with Kawada, the intesity was brought to a whole new level.

I like the Misawa vs. Kobashi matches better. I guess it depends on who you like better, Kobashi or Kawada. I think Kobashi's matches are more exciting even though Kawada's matches have better psychology. So it really depends on what you prefer.

I'd go for Misawa vs. Kawada.

Their matches grew to be so HUGE, since Misawa won basically every single one of them up to their 98 TC match. That was a huge win for Kawada.

Neither, they were both great, it's better than anything I see over here.

[rzombie1988]

they are both great. but im going with misawa vs kawada

[DANGEROUS DAN]

Too hard to call. It was intriquing on both ends because on one side you had the psychology of two guys that were not legitimately on each others Christmas card list, and on the other hand a clash of regular tag team partners.
complete toss up

(flips a coin, heads Misawa/Kobashi, Tails....)j/K

I have always loved Kawada/Misawa. Just the sheer brutality of the kicks and Misawas rolling elbows man. Besides, this was where the Ganso Bomb was born

[villano619]

After watching the tapes again, I'll go with Kawada. Plus their personal history so that was the deciding factor, great brutal matches.

[Luds]

Yes, the way Misawa defended so many times against Kawada... His 98 win to finally get the title was awesome!

[AkumuHau]

Misawa & Kawada.

[Bushido]

Misawa/Kawada definately. WHile Misawa/Kobashi produced some classic matches, none of them can compare to Misawa/Kawada 6/3/94, which is considered by many (and me) to be the greatest men's singles match in history. Unbelievable buildup, touching on everything from Choshu's Army, to Tsuruta/Tenryu, and the Misawa/Kawada tags. Combine that with flawless execution, unparalelled story-telling, and perfect psychology, and you can clearly see why it is the greatest.

[villano619]

Yeah, that really is a unbelivible match, incredible heat.

[Haiku Warrior]

After Kawada won the title in '98 why did he lose it so quickly to Kobashi? He beats Misawa during his record setting reign and loses it to Kobashi a month later. Was this when he had problems with his eyesight?

Misawa matches with Kobashi were better.
