The YOLO Twins

Last year, this blogger had an opportunity to see a tag team match at the August FPW Astig show.  It wasn't just an ordinary tag team match either.

 

The YOLO Twins are the premier tag team in Filipino Pro Wrestling, if not all of Southeast Asia.  No question about it.  They are very capable of beating teams such as Aussie Aussie Aussie (Grapplemax) or Venomshank (Vietnam Pro Wrestling).  This writer is not bashing the teams mentioned.  However, there is something special about this team.

 

Yohann and Logan Ollores are a great and cohesive tag team.  In their match last year, this blogger was, more than impressed, with the athleticism, agility and the quickness.  Both wrestlers have the instincts of where the other is, and will be, when it is needed.  Seeing a video of them in tag team action and live are two different things.

 

Right now, Filipino Pro Wrestling is nearing their one year anniversary as a promotion.  There is yet to be a tag team division in the company because of the company size.  It is growing thanks to the FPW Academy!

 

The YOLO Twins have faced several teams in FPW.  Recently, they visited Singapore and wrestled in a Grapplemax show.  Though they don't have belts right now, The YOLO Twins have been two time - PWR Tag Team Champions.

Last year at FPW's final Astig show in August, this blogger sensed that there was a faction in the making forming.  Good Guy Quatro, a great wrestler and champion with PWR, has become part of a group now called Vandals MNL.  I haven't seen the faction yet in tag team action.  However, there is no question that they could dominate in any match, whether it is in the Philippines or elsewhere.

 

Moving forward, The YOLO Twins will be facing "The Walking Death" Mike Madrigal and James "Idol" Martinez in a tag team match this coming Sunday at FPW Astig.  The YOLO Twins and Mike Madrigal, as was pointed out in a recent promo, are both undefeated in FPW competition.  

 

The question is who will remain undefeated?  We will find out this Sunday at the Baked Studios in Makati City!  The show begins at 2pm!

The FPW Champion's Next Possible Opponent

Mike Madrigal, the Filipino Pro Wrestling champion, has done, pretty much, everything a champion has done in his time as the title holder.

 

He has taken on all comers with the exception of Robynn who was unfortunately injured before the last show.  A Triple Threat Match would take its place. 

 

This blogger has been reading comments in Facebook on who possibly should be his next opponent.

 

If Robynn is fully healthy, "The Walking Death", am told, should give her the title match that she deserves.  Mike announced this himself during the last Astig show in April.

 

If not, there are certainly some qualifiers, some are wrestlers.  And then, there is Red Ollero.

 

This blogger wasn't at the show but am told things are heating up in FPW.  There was the Triple Threat match between Madrigal against Jan Evander against Thiago.  A reel that was posted had Red on the ring apron, then in the ring with what looked like a "chicken wing" on Madrigal.  Mike got out of the way and Thiago, coming off the ropes, "accidently" clobbered Red with his right foot.  Red wouldn't be of help during the remainder of the match.  The Walking Death would go on to win the match and retain the FPW Championship.

 

There could be a title match with Mike and Ralph Imabayashi.  That match could be a good one.  Also, Mike could go up against Chino Guinto or Duke Ortega.  There are several opponents that are possibilities.  Dax Xaviera, Evan Carleaux and several others are possibilities.

 

The thought of Red Ollero enters the picture.  I don't know how the fan base would feel about it.  All this fan knows is things could be heating up in the weeks upcoming.   

 

This blogger is not a match maker.  However, there are several possibilities.  Let's see what happens.

FPW Astig's Next Show!

Filipino Pro Wrestling and FPW Astig will be returning next month!

 

The show will take place on Sunday, February 11th at the PMC Spotlight Blackbox Theater in Circuit Makati.  Time is TBD (probably 2pm).

 

There was a mention on whom FPW Champion, Mike Madrigal should wrestle on the upcoming show.

 

Definitely, this blogger is not a matchmaker.  Mike did defeat Ralph Imabayashi and Cali Nueva in the finals of a tournament last year to win the belt.

 

He defended it successfully against Duke Ortega in a banger of a match that I saw live last August. 

 

Looking back at the FPW:Astig series, he wrestled nearly everyone on the roster and defeated everyone.  

 

Perhaps they could run through the series again starting with Mharckie.  However, though I wasn't at any of the tapings, he hadn't faced the likes of Quatro and Dax Xaviera per the 11 week series in which the fans saw on You Tube.

 

However, this fan knows that Mike Madrigal will be ready. no matter the opponent.  He and the FPW locker room have had a long enough off season to see how the 2024 season will be like.

 

This fan is definitely looking forward to an exciting year.  Am sure the fans cannot wait to watch the action at the PMC Spotlight Blackbox Theater at Circuit Makati.  Tickets are now available on the ticket 2 me website.  However, please check the FPW - Filipino Pro Wrestling for more information.
