Highlight reel of a match often talked about, but rarely shared: Toshiaki Kawada and Kenta Kobashi team up to face Stan Hansen and a young Rob Van Dam on February 19, 1993. This match is infamous in some circles, and now you will see why, because Kawada brutally stiffs Rob Van Dam with kicks and chops. Watch out specifically for the sick Lariat Kawada delivers on RVD that makes RVD back flip and land on his head. This is a highlight reel of the interaction between Kawada and Rob Van Dam, including a 450 Splash that Van Dam attempted on Kobashi, which obviously set Kawada off. The lesson? Don't come to an international promotion and work like a total spot monkey... especially if you have to work with someone like Kawada!
