Professional wrestling entertainment form that mimics contact sports

Professional wrestling is a form of performance art and entertainment that combines athletics with theatrical performance. It takes the form of events, held by touring companies, that mimic a title-match combat sport. The unique form of sport portrayed is fundamentally based on – and evolved from – classical and "catch" wrestling, with modern additions of striking attacks, strength-based holds and throws and acrobatic maneuvers. Much of these derive from the influence of various international martial arts. An additional aspect of combat with improvised weaponry is sometimes included.

The 6th Anniversary Show revolved around Atsushi Onita's retirement match, who was forced to retire after losing to Genichiro Tenryu at 5th Anniversary Show. [3] However, after the match, Onita revealed that the retirement stipulation would be for the next year at the 6th Anniversary Show and began his retirement tour for the next full year. He battled W*ING Alliance throughout the year, which had been formed by Mr. Pogo, Yukihiro Kanemura and Mitsuhiro Matsunaga, all former W*ING wrestlers in 1994. [1] He lost the FMW Brass Knuckles Heavyweight Championship to Pogo's alter ego Pogo Daiyo (English: King Pogo) on January 21, 1995. [4] Onita needed an opponent for his retirement at the 6th Anniversary Show, who could succeed him as FMW's ace and his on-and-off ally and rival Tarzan Goto challenged him to be his opponent in early 1995. On February 6, 1995, Goto defeated Hisakatsu Oya [5] for turning on him on September 25, 1994 to join W*ING Alliance. [6] On February 24, Goto formed Lethal Weapon with Oya and Ricky Fuji to become the lead villainous stable of FMW. [7] However, conspiracy transpired as Goto was never considered a major draw for FMW and the decision of Goto putting over Onita again at 6th Anniversary Show led Goto and his trainees Mr. Gannosuke and Flying Kid Ichihara to no-show April 21 show and leave FMW to join rival IWA Japan. Pogo, the reigning Brass Knuckles Heavyweight Champion and Onita's top rival at the time was then chosen to be Onita's opponent and FMW's next ace but declined the offer due to not being approached first and not accepting to be a substitute. Onita initially picked Takashi Ishikawa for the spot but Ishikawa was not generally accepted by the audience for not being a good wrestler to lead FMW and then Hayabusa, the former FMW's preliminary talent Eiji Ezaki, who was scheduled to make his full-time return to FMW at 6th Anniversary Show, stepped in to challenge Onita for the match at a press conference by Onita on April 30. Onita was initially reluctant but Hayabusa insisted on it and Ishikawa stepped down from the match, leading to Hayabusa being chosen as Onita's opponent. [1] On May 1, Onita used his alter ego "The Great Nita" for the last time in a six-man tag team match [8] and then defeated Pogo to win the Brass Knuckles Heavyweight Championship on May 4, just one day shy of 6th Anniversary Show, to make his retirement match with Hayabusa, a title match.
