>>11779588>>11779607It's the guy taking the bump, bro. Misawa is just that good, and Kobashi trusted him to take a potentially life-threatening bump well. And misawa always did until he was older.
The third one, he just made safer because he wanted to protect him, I suppose.
The real hype, though, is the idea of a super finisher in the first place. A rare move that is always a killshot no matter what. Misawa had the Tiger Driver 91 and later the Emerald Flowsion. Akiyama had that Stardust Alpha or whatever the fuck it was called.
I don't understand why more promotions don't copy the AJPW/NOAH thing of having multiple finishers/ways to finish a match. It keeps things interesting.
