4. vs. Dr Death Steve Williams - 31/08/93
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AsjhRd9JHU 1993 saw Kobashi thrown to the lions as such, being booked as a rising young prospect in a series of matches with some of the roughest, toughest and meanest veterans AJPW had at their disposal. This is one such example - a really vicious brawl that went a long way to getting Kobashi sympathetically over with the crowd by highlighting his toughness, drive, grit, and never quit attitude. Quite how he walked away after the finishing run is beyond me though, with Kobashi being on the receiving end of some of the scariest head-drop suplexes you will ever see.
