Terry Funk vs. Atsushi Onita - FMW 1993
Added 2025-08-19 16:00:11 +0000 UTCI don't need to understand Japanese to understand blood and explosions! This was WILD. First experience with Japanese wrestling and I'm so intrigued. Thanks for the suggestion, SL Bacio!

They’d boo Funk against their favorites, but in a situation as insane as an Exploding Barbed Wire Mega Explosion Countdown Match, they’re both heroes really
