Since I'm starting their feud proper tomorrow, I got two webms from their earlier matches. They're more feelout deals where not much very spectacular happens, so they don't do much that does well as a webm. Still good matches, but more in the sense that they establish their dynamic. What's especially cool to see during the first few matches is you can see Akiyama study Kobashi and the further time passes, the more the matches become 50/50 ordeals with Akiyama's getting in more offense and Kobashi respecting him more and more.
This is from their first match, from 1992.
