Talk:Mitsuharu Misawa

5 Star match
Should we put all the Wrestleing Observer Newsletter 5 Star matches like in Kenta Kobashi. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 170.161.69.82 (talk) 18:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC).

Cause of death
As Misawa's family has chosen to request confidentiality regarding his cause of death, it is not certain whether it was a heart attack that killed him; others have speculated a brain injury. Could it possibly be noted that, while he did die after losing consciousness during his match, the exact cause of death is unknown? 24.187.128.89 (talk) 01:06, 15 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Police announced the cause of his death was cervical cord damage. Some English media misreported it was a heart attack, because AED was used after his pulse was flatted.--Cervelo21 (talk) 11:37, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Moves list
I suggest that the corckscrew lariat, and the name kai for the emerald flowsion variation should be added, both are very well know facts that exist, also is should be put at least the rolling elbow as a finisher, why not? —Preceding unsigned comment added by EmeraldTiger (talk • contribs) 21:53, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Why would someone remove the section that contains the lsit of moves??? I mean, this is something Important, it's just like removing their accomplishments Baal616 (talk) 04:40, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

Move List...Again!
Why the hell doesnt appear the rolling elbow as a finisher move? You cant list the rolling elbow, or running elbow as just a signature, maybe it is one of Misawa's most well known finishers!!!!!!

And what is that crap os the discus lariat? he never used it!!!! just cause it figure on www.onlineworldofwrestling.com?

ONLINEWORLDOFWRESTLING.COM IS NOT A TRUSTEABLE PAGE!!!!!

'''IT SAID THAT ONE OF KEIJI MUTOH'S FINISHERS IS "THE DRAGON SCREW"! Is just a signature!'''

Come guys someone put the hands on work, this is maybe the most important figure in japanese pro wrestling!!!! it cant have a move that he has never did!!!!!!!!!

RESPOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by EmeraldTiger (talk • contribs) 22:55, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Six stars, are you shining just for me?
I'm pretty sure that this supposed "6-stars match" involving Kawada and Misawa - which I believe has only been mentioned, and in a very carefree fashion, by Meltzer on Twitter - is mentioned nowhere in the linked articles. -_-

EDIT. Okay, here are the facts. The match's actual rating was "*****+" (five stars "plus") back in the day, a rating given to some matches Meltzer really digged in the 90s. Since then, it always had the distinction of being perhaps the most famous "5-star" in existence. This was until this year's Wrestle Kingdom [http://starratingslist.blogspot.it/2009/09/wrestling-observer-5-star-ratings-list.html http://deathvalleydriver.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2528-the-definitive-observer-star-ratings-list/]; Meltzer gave six stars to the Main Event of WK (Okada/Omega) and then added on Twitter something like "I think I gave Misawa/Kawada six stars" when answering a fan's questions. Afterwards, he erroneously referenced the Power Series match like something he had given six stars "before". This is obviously wrong, though, because all the historical documentation goes against it. I'm not sure it can even count as a retroactive change to the original five stars, given that there's the big chance Meltzer was glaringly misremembering his own stuff and nothing else (regardless of the fact he would probably give it these new "six stars" now). The most important discriminating factor, is that "five plus" and "six" were used as different votes (Okada/Omega is not labeled like a "*****+" in the WON, it has "******" reported as the rating; Misawa/ Kawada is on the other hand a "*****+").

 * Misawa/Kawada from 1997 is *****+, not 1994. 78.125.203.159 (talk) 12:50, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Glad to see this section hasn't been touched by HHH pedigrees elitism Bildeberg (talk) 17:55, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

cause of death ref?
The Sun is a source that literally can't be trusted for Wikipedia (WP:RSP), and the Japanese link above from 2009 doesn't work and didn't make it into the Internet Archive. Is there any usable reference for this? - David Gerard (talk) 07:30, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
