The Tokyopop FMW DVDs and Hayabusa were my gateway to puroresu (and gifs of the Ganso Bomb, Tiger Driver 91 and Burning Hammer), so this is interesting news.

Onita's been running FMW nostalgia shows over the last few years, so it's really not that much different, but hey, you never know with that crazy old bastard.
