The First FPW Championship Match


It was Sunday, April 23, 2023.  The venue was the PMC Spotlight Blackbox Theater in Circuit Makati.  The finals of the FPW Tournament, to decide the first FPW Champion, was about to take place.

 

Mike Madrigal, Ralph Imabayashi and Cali Nueva would go through a competitive tournament to reach the finals.  I was fortunate to see all three wrestlers live last August.  There was no question in my mind then that all three grapplers deserved to be in the final on this very day.

 

Prior to seeing the August show, it was watching each on You Tube video when all three were with Philippine Wrestling Revolution.  I knew about Ralph Imabayashi being PWR Champion longer than anyone in the promotion's history.  But, after watching some video with Mike Madrigal and Cali Nueva, any one of the three could be the first FPW Champion.

 

This wrestling fan has watched this match a couple of times now and it was as action packed of a three way match as any triple threat match I've seen worldwide.  All three brought their 'A' game that day to the PMC Spotlight Theater.

 

I want to say that Red Ollero and Poch Spice (who is also the ring announcer) did a good job with the commentary.  They brought a lot of excitement to the match as well.


As 2024 is a few days old, I could see any of the three in this match holding the FPW Championship this year or sometime down the line.  If you haven't seen the match, the link to it is below.  Hope you guys enjoy it.  The fans who were there back in April did just that!
