YES. Let’s post cool matches from our local obscure indies! Specifically I want matches from promotions most people won’t even have heard of, hopefully featuring people we won’t know.

I’ll start. Despite there being little of it and the fanbase being so small here in Finland, there’s still some very good pro wrestling to be found here. Here’s a match I’d like you to watch.

Musta aukko (Pyöveli Petrov, Viktor Tykki & The San w/ Mahtava Perkules) vs Kolme ässää (Make Smooth, Jami Aalto & Shemeikka), Elimination match @ FCF Wrestling Show Live! Omega 2018, 5/26/2018

https://youtu.be/eJUu1KMpvcU

This match was a part of a very long, multi-year story about the heel faction Musta aukko taking over FCF, eventually even turning FCF events into Musta aukko-branded shows, NWO style. This was around let’s say the middle part of that story. Just a really fantastic match with lots of background and storyline development for everyone involved, some of which I’ll have forgotten so I won’t go into it too much. A very important piece of history however is that Shemeikka (face wrestler with lucha mask) and Tykki (Kevin Owens-shaped bruiser heel) debuted around the same time in late 2016 and were a tag team until Tykki turned on Shemeikka and joined Musta aukko. Also, The San only debuted at the previous show so he’s a bit green (dude has made tremendous progress in the last two years, though!).

Also the Terminator stuff isn’t (only?) because Kenny Omega made it cool. Shemeikka has a giant Terminator tattoo on his arm!

Workrate-wise it might not the best match in FCF history but I do think it’s really drat good, the story beats were hit perfectly and the atmosphere was electric, so I consider it one of the high points in their history.

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN. Post a fun match from your local indy no one here has seen before and I hope I or someone else will watch it and comment on it! Maybe even review a match if you feel like it!

Shotzi Blackheart vs. Christian Rose - Street Fight - Journey Pro Wrestling

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUVxu8M8Aro

Exactly the kind of thing I wanted to see ITT

I was aware of Blackheart but had never seen her in a match. Rose I can’t remember hearing of at all. Video package did a very good job of explaining the backstory.

Smartly worked street fight with literally all the trappings and room for some wrestling too. Thought those two told an effective story. Good stuff!

Fun fact; this was the promotion that our own Mr Flyers Meltdown worked for for like 3 months before he was fired lmao, yes it's still alive and yes they put up flyers on eastside now!

Watched this because it was 10 mins. Really fun sprint. AEW should’ve hired Logan instead of Marko tbqh
