Curt McGirt Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) To make up for the Parka match (sorry Segunda friends, just not my bag) here is maybe the best singles match in FMW ever. White-hot feud gets blown off. Hakushi bleeds, dies, busts out all his cool moves. Mr. Gannosuke is a capital-E-capital-D Evil Dick. It rules and you should watch it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaYTaSJ3VRY EDIT: Holy SHIT, the assisted powerbomb through the table that starts this thing off you will rewind ten times in a row. Gannosuke and Kanemura topping it off with the "smoking a J" '70s-era daps is the cherry on top. Edited February 26 by Curt McGirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfrey Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Love that Gannosuke/Shinzaki match. Pretty sure it was on a Schneider comp back in the day, however I got it I watched the hell out of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 This Wrestle-1 show has: -Terry Funk and Mil Mascaras having a very fun legends match with Honma/Nakajima -AJ Styles and Kaz Hayashi doing the most -Murakami trying to kill Tenryu with a broken bottle -Sasaki and Choshu going at it -Shibata and Akiyama trying to kill each other with their bare hands. Like the man used to say: you want ALL of this. OK, maybe not the Predator match. https://archive.org/details/wrestle-1-2005.08.04-wrestle-1-grand-prix-first-round 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Emman Azman(c) vs Endboss Gregory from Malaysia Pro Wrestling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9BCGxEWufk Azman is YOUR Melbourne Championship wrestling Intercommonwealth champ and belt is on the line! Fun little match with a simple, well-told story: Azman is tiny and speedy and Gregory wants to keep him on the mat and wear down his arm. Azman also has dope tights that combine the Malaysian and Australian flags. He does not, however, really have the ups or the timing to do some of the stuff he wants to do, but he's charismatic and gives it the ol' college try. Gregory does some very plausible chain wrestling and bases best he can for Azman. The structure of the match is very AEW, down to having an unnecessary strike exchange in the middle. Not quite a Rampage match, but nobody would notice if you stuck it in the middle of Dark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) The second half of AJW Wrestling Queendom Victory 1995: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGPQjYK6RD8 IWA World Title Triangle Match: Takako Inoue (c) vs. Toshiyo Yamada vs. Reggie Bennett Lioness Asuka vs. Yumiko Hotta WWF World Women's Title Match: Bull Nakano (c) vs. Kyoko Inoue WWWA World Title Match: Aja Kong (c) vs. Manami Toyota Now the Triangle match is way better than most traingle matches, because it's not a Triangle match. It's a Winner Stays on 3 woman Gauntlet. To win, you have to beat both opponents consecutively. Edited March 7 by AxB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrsFnzgOylk Quote God got up one morning, He was in an ugly mood He was sick of floods and plagues, He wanted something really rude He made a big piranha out of broken glass and glue Then He gave her two legs and a nasty attitude Well the Sahara was a jungle till she ripped out all the trees Then she looked up at the mountaintops, they all began to freeze The sun gave her a cold until she set it on fire Check and see it for yourself if you think that I'm a liar God made the Devil just for fun But when He wanted the real thing He made Aja Kong She's a head splitting, fire spitting human earthquake She makes the young ones wonder and the wise ones shake She's got the hands of a gorilla, got the head of a snake She keeps looking but hasn't found a thing she can't break! God made the Devil just for fun But when He wanted the real thing He made Aja Kong 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintthecrippler Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 ACW Summer Meltdown 2000, an Upper Peninsula Michigan indie wrestling event that I attended in Summer 2000 that had appearances from a Fake Doink and a Fake LA Parka but inexplicably somehow managed to book Real MENG while he was in WCW. And the opening match has Ken Anderson pre-WWE/TNA, and I assume he was my second favorite wrestler on the show next to Meng because he came out to "Push It" by Static X https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y42A33JBpwY 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
