No, that's actually from the short IWGP Heavyweight Title reign Takada had in 1996, a match that took place on March 1, 1996 at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo. But those 1986 and 1987 matches Takada and Koshinaka had are amazing. Some of the best junior action New Japan had in the 1980s. Rival the Tiger Mask vs Dynamite Kid feud.

Thank You 

Im working through the list of the best matches of the 80's and Nobuhiko Takada vs. Shiro Koshinaka NJPW 2/5/87 is on it but cant seem to find it and had hoped that video was it

When did Jericho revert to a traditional Boston Crab from the far superior looking original version of Walls of Jericho? And why?

watching 97/98 WCW and the WOJ looks absolutely nasty as a finisher. Looks really painful and the one he does these days looks shit.

It's simply because when he moved to the WWF in '99 he was paired against must physically larger wrestlers and so he adapted the hold so it could be readily applied to non-cruiserweights. In recent years, he's busted out the original liontamer occasionally, against guys like Xavier Woods, Neville and Dolph Ziggler. So basically, he changed the move to fit the larger breed of wrestler and still utilises the original on special occasions to pop the smart fans. The walls is still my favourite wrestling move of all time.

Just started watching Raw for the first time in ages. Why does Seth Rollin's entrance music have "Burn it Down" randomly inserted in it?
