Default Finding 100A TVS diode?

BZW6-26, 26v TVS unidirectional diode, through-hole, obsolete, n/a.

The original datasheet says that the 600W peak pulse power is measured over
10/1000 uS waveform, but the 100A forward surge current is specd over 1/2
cycle of 60 Hz sine:

All replacements I see, the surge current is nowhere near 100A or is specd
at 10/1000 uS waveform.

Surely the original isnt all that unique a part...? Anyone know of a
direct replacement?

Thanks,
Dave
