I like this just fine, but it's not really a War Games match, it just has some similarities. Pinfalls count and there's only one ring. Still, I do enjoy watching FMW, as it may be the most Memphis-influenced wrestling product in Japan. I wouldn't go to bat for it as a great match, but it's pretty entertaining.

I wish they played up War Games gimmick more but once everyone got in the ring it was good enough. That table was real sturdy with Wing coming off the tope of the cage and it not breaking. He could have broke a rib or two the way he landed on the edge of it. The ladder was of the flimsy SMW kind.

Closer to a Smoky Mountain "Rage in the Cage" than WarGames, as we have handcuffs on the cage. And no man-advantage rule either, as each team sends a guy in at the same time. Pretty cool brawl that actually builds into a hell of a wrestling match, with some really great near-falls and saves and some cool psychology with the babyfaces having to fight off a 2-on-3 disadvantage when Kuroda gets cuffed. Afterward Victor Quinones, the Headhunters, and Mr. Pogo lay waste to everyone in sight, with one Headhunter doing a moonsault off the cage. I dug this quite a lot.
