Kenta Kobashi, Jun Akiyama, Keiji Mutoh, & Kensuke Sasaki vs. KENTA, Yoshinobu Kanemaru, Maybach Taniguchi, & Go Shiozaki
For my money, the most beautiful retirement ever done. I remember watching Kobashi back in 2011 and 2012 and being pretty sad by how broken down he looked, and then the string of injuries and surgeries made it seem like he'd never reach his prior greatness again. I was wrong. He busted his ass for a year training so he could give one last great performance and go out on his own terms. Amazing feel good moment for Kobashi fans and made me really happy that he was able to go out while still holding his head high.

Yeah this is the best retirement ever. HBK's pretty close, and his match was far better, but this is perfect in its own way. A nostalgic travel with fantastic interactions and heartbreaking moments. Kobashi is the GOAT. He went home like a pro wrestling god. I don't think it'll make my list, but if I had no idea which match I have to put on the #100 spot, this would be the one, and just for 100% subjective reasons.
