Even with all my years of watching wrestling and after looking online, I cannot figure out some of these. Either they're really obscure or they're not animated as well as others, but I need help.
Counter: SCRAP BUSTER (kinda looks like Samoa Joe's catching STO, or like a non-spinning Abyss' Blackhole Slam) SPINE BOMB (Rydeen Bomb?)
Corner to Center: LEG-STEPPED LARIAT STOMPING LARIAT (I always thought these looked too distinct to be generic lariats)
Running to Outside: SPACEMAN PLANCHA (Manami Toyota is my guess)
Grapple: SUPER BODY BLOW (Named GOLDEN LEFT in FPR) KENKA RUSH (A super move like the Strike Three, Blazing Tornado, etc.?) HIJACK BACKBREAKER
Face Up, At Head: RUNNING DANGEROUS KICK (Looks like something Kawada would do, but I can't find footage)

Nice, I'll try to look up footage when I wake up.
Do you know if he gave his lariat a special name?

The scrap buster is a.k.a. the boss man slam. Abyss's finish is a spinning boss man slam, so you're basically correct.
Yes, the running dangerous kick is Kawada's. He was finishing with it around the time FPR came out. (I still have that as his "official" finish, in fact.)

Hijack backbreaker is Don Leo Jonathan. I'm not positive they had him in mind, but he used it as finish in Japan in the 70's.
skip to 11:40 for Hijack backbreaker
I believe he called it the "Mormon Spin", he also used the Big Swing and called it the "Mormon Swing", so I could be mixing them up.

There used to be a ton of youtube channels with clips and compilations of wrestling moves, but it looks like they've been taken down so I really appreciate any video. This is spot on, that move always looked pretty old school.

Yeah, Sid did that (highjack backbreaker) as a slam once or twice too. I know that because I have an old school friend who loved him some Sid, and he would always bring up the "helicopter slam."

Just can't seem to figure out where the name "Scrap Buster" comes from, but others do refer to it as such in the Youtube comments. I'll take your word for it. I can't find video for the Running Dangerous Kick, but I'm sure it was in his moveset for FPR.

Spaceman Plancha is Taka Michinoku Kenka Rush is Masahiro Chono It looked familiar! Might have seen Taka do it against Great Sasuke. Kenka Rush, Kenka Kick. Makes sense. The over-the-top ring shaking with the stomps threw me off. Here's a few more (these are all taunts): WING APPEAL POINT TO THE BACK OF THE HAND BRAGGART APPEAL STREET GANG DANCE OH! SERIES

Appreciated, this is the one that was bothering me the most. Just wanted to see it performed. He doesn't really hit the ropes here, but could be Spike taking liberties.

I'm not near the game right now, so I might be confusing this in my head, but I want to say Street Gang Dance is Team No Respect from FMW.
