9.5/10 from me. This suffered from the same problem that some Chris Hero or Tommy End matches do for me, which is that it takes people WAY too long to follow up sometimes, and it doesn't feel like it was because of exhaustion because Misawa was failing to follow up and press the advantage in the same way early on. The selling is great and the storytelling is great, but it doesn't quite feel like a 10/10 to me.

Wikiapedia says it was actually from 97 that was the 6 star match, but this is the one Les Thatcher was talking about and the one Les said Dave was talking about.

wiki may be wrong, this is the one that Dave was talking about because he wanted to compare his two 6* matches.
