One of my favorite tags of the WAR vs. NJ 92-94 feud, if not the favorite. Classic formula but they add some neat twists to it, such as Hashimoto briefly playing FIP and Ohara's hot tag getting completely snuffed out by Ishikawa. The meat, of course, is the mauling of Ohara and Hashimoto as the hot tag. Great selling by Tenryu and great crowd heat. One criticism is that I think the match was actually too short and they could have used 5-10 more minutes to flesh out some of the segments.

Yeah, easy second.
This is one of the best sub-15 minute matches ever. The heat and hatred, a brutal mauling, Tenryu and Hashimoto being Tenryu and Hashimoto, etc. This was going to be on the list I never got around to submitting and it'll be on the one I hopefully get around to submitting next year.

Third. I think this comfortably smokes the 4/2/93 WAR tag, which is honestly pretty dull before Choshu gets posted. Hell of a gutsy performance from Ohara as he absorbs an unreal amount of punishment but keeps firing back. Plenty of highlights packed into a relatively short time frame, including Ishikawa contemptuously stomping Ohara after a double clothesline, Hashimoto breaking up a pin and trying to drag Ohara to his corner only for Tenryu to drag him right back, and the monster match-ending chokeslam. There are a couple of blatant restholds, but that's the only real problem with this match.

I haven't watched this in ages now but on last watch I thought it was one of the high points of the best in-ring feud ever. The mauling of Ohara is phenomenal stuff. I should re-watch it just to confirm how high in the top 50 I'll have it again next year.
