The same holds true for the other two forms and I'd say Rising Mighty is easily a match for DoGaBaKi (assuming Wataru remembers it exists - also assuming Wataru doesn't just go straight to Emperor like he does in every fight). And I'd personally maintain that Amazing Mighty is a match for Emperor, which is only about middle of the road in terms of final form strength. And if it isn't, well Ultimate sure as hell is. Honestly, the two do a lot of similar things, but Kuuga just does them better.

All of Kiva's forms have an Emperor form as well.

Anyway, I'm voting Kiva.
The presumption that Kiva's Emperor form is weaker than other Final forms is on the basis that he uses it for a lot more of his fights. Yet it's never taken into consideration that, possibly, the Fangire are stronger than the Grongi.
Kiva also held back in all of his fights, explaining the bat thing (Forgot what it was called) on the Zanvat saber.

Concerning Double, I'm not sure. FangJoker is removed from the equation in that Shotaro can't become that form, forcing him to de-transform, a huge liability. Double's versatility is his greatest asset, but I just don't see him winning it.

That, and if literally stopping time isn't enough reason for Kabuto to defeat Decade, blowing up a city street isn't enough reason for Kuuga to defeat these two. -3-
