With the year winding down, the tag titles get defended once again. Both team look to gain some momentum going into the 1995 Real World Tag League. These teams had a one hour time limit draw earlier in the year in January. Now, ask yourselves, when was the last time that a tag title match ever went the distance?

This is one of my personnal favorites.Misawa has the deadliest elbows.Kobashi has the manliest hair....and a mean-ass lariat.These 2 just tear eachother apart!

A slightly clipped match between these two legends.

AJPW - 4/20/91 - Mitsuharu Misawa, Toshiaki Kawada & Kenta Kobashi vs. Jumbo Tsuruta, Masanobu Fuchi & Akira Taue
Here's one of the best six man tags AJPW has produced. At this time, Mitsuharu Misawa has form the Over-Generation Army, a bunch of young guys looking to shake up the foundation of AJPW. Jumbo Tsuruta formed his own army in order to counter them. Some of this match is clipped but the clipped portions don't take away from the match itself.

AJPW - 6/9/95 - Mitsuharu Misawa & Kenta Kobashi vs. Akira Taue & Toshiaki Kawada
This is perhaps one of the best tag matches you'll ever see. Misawa and Kobashi have dominated the tag ranks as they have been the repeat champions of the Real World Tag League (93 and 94). Their dominance has been well known to Kawada and Taue. Kawada has not been able to beat Misawa is a tag or singles since splitting apart as a team in 1993. Now, it seems that Misawa and Kobashi has their opponent's number. Or do they?
This match is perhaps more famous for one move that Toshiaki Kawada does in this match. But what is more interesting in this match is that Kawada has his shoulder injured and proceed to finish the match. But does he win? Watch, or download to find out.

Zero-One - 3-2-01 - Shinya Hashimoto & Yuji Nagata vs. Mitsuharu Misawa & Jun Akiyama
Zero-One - 3-2-01 - Shinya Hashimoto & Yuji Nagata vs. Mitsuharu Misawa & Jun Akiyama. From the debut show of Zero-One, a pretty damn big tag team match in the main event. Not as epic as the names involved, but still a good match.
