Merzbow Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Yeah typical modern FMW, it's all about the explosion. The shows seem mostly awful aside from the gimmick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BomberPat Posted April 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2023 There's usually some decent undercard comedy, but otherwise you're right. The first show under the FMW-E banner had a great variation on the "Fans Bring The Weapons" formula - anyone watching the stream could donate money against individual weapons, and when each weapon reached their target, they were introduced into the match. Brilliant idea in theory, incomprehensible in practice, as there was no on-screen graphics to show donations or how close anything was to its goal, the announcers clearly weren't in the loop about what money was coming in either. I'm pretty sure wrestlers started using weapons before they were supposed to, as well. It would be a great gimmick if used by a competent promotion.

Paid Members waters44 Posted April 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2023 What show / promotion is that Janela Onita moment from? I think it’s DDT but I can’t find anything about it on Cagematch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2023 it's FMW-E isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 It was DDT's "Dramatic Explosion in Niigata" show on April 16th. http://www.profightdb.com/cards/ddt/dramatic-explosion-in-niigata-47781.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Think Onita's worked a few shows for DDT. In other news (credit to reddit) Suzu Suzuki has parted ways with Joshi death match freelance group, Prominence. Don't blame her. Prominence is a dead end imo, especially if their deal with Stardom has come to an end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s already been booked on more Stardom shows, she’s great I can see Stardom wanting to sign her full time but I reckon she continues freelance.

The King Of Swing Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 She's got a pretty sweet gig. Death matches to her hearts content while Stardom are willing to pay her on a date by date basis and book her strong as far as freelance wrestlers go.
