Wish list (matches that need to be capped; UPDATED 8/20/08).

Misawa & Akiyama vs Williams & Ace, tag titles, 9/5/96. Heck of a match with, you guessed it, an epic finishing stretch.

Kobashi vs Johnny Smith, Champions Carnival 2000. Smith does a very smart match and eventually the crowd realizes that he's not going to be an easy win for Kobashi. Unique finish.

All Japan June 9th 2000, part 2. The tag tournament final, featuring a last-time-ever pairing, and a very heated Akiyama & Kea vs Kobashi & Shiga battle.

All Japan splits.

All Japan June 9th 2000, part 1. The final pre-split Budokan show was dominated by a four team tournament to crown new tag champs after Vader got hurt and vacated the belts. This block features Misawa & Ogawa vs Takayama & Omori, and Kawada & Taue vs Ace & Barton. As it turned out that would be Ace's final scheduled wrestling match, though he did have the ability to earn one more with a trip to the finals.

Jumbo & Tenryu vs Choshu & Khan, 8/2/85. It ain't pretty but it sure is fun.

Albright & Takayama vs Taue & Izumida, 7/24/98, JIP. The NTV airing of this clips to exactly the right part. Izu takes the UWFi veterans head-on and Budokan is right there with him!

Kawada vs Kobashi, 5/24/96. Upgrade.

Kawada & Taue vs Misawa & Akiyama, tag titles, 5/23/96. Upgrade.

Kobashi & Akiyama vs Vader & Albright, 7/23/98. Burning lost the tag titles a month before and can't afford another loss. Meanwhile, Vader/Albright is a team that could easily dominate the division if they get momentum going. A similar situation to the '98 tag league final, only Albright isn't nearly as limited as Hansen.

Kobashi vs Akiyama, Triple Crown, 7/24/98. Upgrade.

Kobashi & Kikuchi vs Fuchi & Ogawa, All Asia tag titles, 7/5/92. Upgrade.

Misawa vs Taue, Triple Crown, 5/24/96. Upgrade

Taue vs Kawada, CC '96. Upgrade

Kerry Von Erich vs Jumbo, NWA title, 5/22/84. Upgrade

Kawada vs Takayama, 7/17/99. Takayama is fresh off pinning Taue at the last Budokan show. Kawada is gearing up for a title shot. Short with a ton of hard hits and an odd finish.

Misawa vs Kawada, Triple Crown, 7/23/99. Upgrade

Taue vs Kawada, Triple Crown, 6/7/96. Upgrade

Kobashi vs Kakihara, 7/16/99. Kaki does better than the first time, showing that skill can manage brute force.

Kawada vs Kakihara, 9/11/98. Upgrade

Akiyama vs Ogawa, 9/11/98. Ogawa, having just won the junior title, looks to prove what he's capable off. They do the contrasting styles perfectly, and this is my favorite Ogawa singles match by a fair amount.

Destroyer vs Don Leo Jonathan, World League '75. DLJ is a great 'big' wrestler, and they play up the size difference quite effectively.

Hase vs Shiga, 1/2/97. Upgrade.

Taue vs Akiyama, 1/20/97. I waited too long to post this. A very unique match in that they start fast and end 'early' by All Japan standards. Akiyama looks like a world-beater.

Tenryu vs Isao Takagi (Arashi), 1/28/90. I don't know what Isao did to earn Tenryu's ire, but man, grumpy Tenryu is always good times.

Jumbo & Tiger Mask II vs Tenryu & Hara, 6/11/87. With Choshu gone and the Jumbo/Tenryu team split up, Tiger Mask Misawa became much more important. Hara is the one who REALLY stepped up, though.

Kobashi & Akiyama vs Takayama & Kakihara, 2/28/98. Lots of talent and a short(ish) match time equals compact goodness.
