Jimmy Valiant
Some of Kabuki's major feuds were against Jimmy Valiant, Scott Casey, Abdullah the Butcher, Dusty Rhodes, Toshiaki Kawada, Chris Adams, Genichiro Tenryu, Bruiser Brody, and the Fabulous Freebirds. Kabuki's battles against Adams were billed as "the battle of the superkicks", as ring announcer Bill Mercer often asked which kick was better: Adams' superkick or Kabuki's thrust kick.
