Mitsuharu Misawa vs. Vader

[9.0] "This Match was great Vader immediately gave masawa a brutal punch to the face which Maswa sold really well Vader kept on beating hum down with splash after splash. But it wasn't enough and even a powerbomb. Miswa would later win with a desperate fourarms to the face."

[8.0] "This being their first meeting really ups the drama in who is going to win here. In their first encounter for the Triple Crown it is clear Misawa is going to win on the Baba Memorial Show, wheras here anything can happen. Vader hits an incredible clothesline from the apron where he flies over the railing into the crowd, and then a German that sends Misawa flipping over his head. I like this about as much as their title clashes for the unpredictability factor and the hot crowd."

[6.0] "Vader was great giving Misawa a beatdown. Misawa was great in his comebacks. Pretty good match. ***1/4"

[7.0] "Vader gives Misawa a very convincing continuous beatdown while stopping nearly every moment of momentum Misawa tries to get. Pretty nice crowd reactions with a nice pop for the finish. Sure they'll have a more nice all out brawl of a better match later on though at least I'd hope so."

[5.0] "Adequate match with nothing special or memorable, except for the German Suplex that almost killed our Greeny Boy. Vader dominated most of the match, but couldn't put Misawa away. It could've been waaay better, but that's fine. ***1/4"
