Filipino Pro Wrestling Update #3


There have been a couple of mentions since the last Filipino Pro Wrestling post a few days ago.

 

First, "The Blessed One", Chino Guinto, will be in action at the upcoming FPW: Astig show.  His opponent has yet to be named.

 

Also, just announced will be a match between Duke Ortega against Freak Tisoy.

 

This fan knows some things about Chino Guinto and Duke Ortega since seeing then live and on video.

 

Filipino-Canadian wrestler, Freak Tisoy is one who is new to me, and perhaps to the FPW fans.  

 

On Sunday, February 11th, we will know more about him.  There could perhaps be more matches signed for the upcoming show at the PMC Spotlight Blackbox Theater in Circuit Makati beginning at 2pm.

 

For more on tickets, and there are some still available, please check the ticket2me.net website and also, please check the FPW - Filipino Pro Wrestling page on Facebook.  Thank you.

Filipino Pro Wrestling Update


With a little more than two weeks to go, Filipino Pro Wrestling's show, FPW: Astig will take place on Sunday, February 11th.  The venue is the PMC Spotlight Blackbox Theater, Circuit Makati at 2pm.  Doors open at 1:30pm.

 

Thus far, two matches have been announced with more on the way.

 

Mike Madrigal vs. Thiago for the FPW Championship.

Robynn vs. Ralph Imabayashi.

 

This blogger shared a little bit about the Mike Madrigal vs. Thiago in the last post.

 

The Robynn vs Ralph Imabayashi match will be interesting and a really good one for the fans.

 

For those that are new to reading this blog, and with Southeast Asia pro wrestling, intergender wrestling matches are not uncommon.  Because the number of women on rosters throughout the region are low in number, often, you will find matches like either a singles or a mixed tag team.

 

I've seen both Robynn and Ralph in action both live (August 2023) and on video (You Tube).

 

Beginning with Robynn, this fan was impressed in her match last August in an intergender match.  She is as tough as nails.  She can take the punishment as well as dish it out.  This fan learned more about her when interviewing her last October.

 

Ralph Imabayashi is no stranger in Philippines wrestling history either.  When first watching PWR, the first matches watching on You Tube were Ralph's matches.  Then, there was the match in August 2023 against Robbie Eagles.  I cannot  share the result here but it was one of the most exciting matches ever to this fan!

 

Tickets are available right now on the early bird rate!  Please check ticket2me.net and/or the FPW - Filipino Pro Wrestling page on Facebook for more information!

FPW: Astig Update


FPW: Astig will be returning to the PMC Spotlight Blackbox Theater on Sunday, February 11th in Circuit Makati at 2pm.  The first match has been made and it is a main event!

 

Undefeated and FPW Champion, Mike Madrigal, will put the title on the line against the Gym Bro, and rising star, Thiago.

 

This is the first time the two wrestlers have faced each other in competition.  This fan has seen both wrestlers compete at last August's FPW: Astig and was impressed with what he saw.  According to a couple of wrestlers, it has been said to watch out for Thiago!  He is improving by the day.  This fan is sure that Madrigal isn't taking his opponent lightly either.  This will be Mike's third defense of the FPW Championship Title.


There will be matches added in the coming days.  Tickets are still available on early bird rates until January 31st.  For more information, please see the FPW - Filipino Pro Wrestling page on Facebook and/or check the ticket2me for tickets.  Thank you.


As soon as there are more matches announced, I will add them on a separate post.

Filipino Pro Wrestling Notes


Wanted to share some info regarding Filipino Pro Wrestling for this next post.

 

First off, this blogger would like to thank Red Ollero, the MWF staff and the FPW locker room for a successful year one of FPW Astig.  I had the opportunity to watch all the episodes of FPW Astig like all of the fans on You Tube.  It was well produced and really enjoyed the commentary of all the matches.

 

Certainly, seeing how the FPW Championship unfolded was really cool.  Congratulations to Mike Madrigal on winning the first FPW Championship.  Also, congratulations to everyone on the FPW roster for making season one a successful one.  I feel, along with Red, the FPW locker room, staff and the majority of fans, that Filipino Pro Wrestling is cautious and doing things the right way.

 

Seeing the last FPW Astig show in August was special for this fan.  The matches were exciting, particularly the Mike Madrigal-Duke Ortega and the Ralph Imabayashi-Robbie Eagles matches.  Definitely, the show was entertaining and important, especially when earlier in the week, the pro wrestling world lost two iconic wrestlers.

 

I'm told that Filipino Pro Wrestling will resume likely in February 2024 with another series of shows.  I don't want to mention the date until told to.  Hopefully, the FPW and Pinoy wrestling fans will look forward to another season of exciting action.

FPW Astig Update!


This fan has enjoyed, and appreciated the Filipino Pro Wrestling shows that have been shown on You Tube over the past 10 weeks.

 

This coming Thursday, November 23rd, will be the final FPW Astig shown on You Tube beginning at 4pm local time.

 

The match for the inaugural Filipino Pro Wrestling Championship will be shown in its entirety.  Over the past few episodes, there was a tournament to determine who would be the first champion.

 

Ralph Imabayashi, Cali Nueva and Mike Madrigal, all have moved on to the Championship round.  Hope all of you have a chance to enjoy what, I understand, was a great match.

Filipino Pro Wrestling's Astig Series

 


I've been watching the Filipino Pro Wrestling Astig series on You Tube over the past six weeks.  Though this fan has seen most of the wrestlers at least once live and on You Tube, there are some surprises that come along the way.


The tag team that came from Australia to appear in one of the shows was cool.  

 

However, more important were some matches over the course of 2023 that were really good matches.

 

The series has gone through six weeks now and is about to even get better.  There will be the eventual match to see who becomes the FPW Champion.

 

In the meantime, if you haven't been watching, a new show appears each Thursday at 4pm local time in the Philippines.  Please check it out on You Tube under the Filipino Pro Wrestling page.
