Summary: Enough with the clipping!
Review: I bought FMW Judgement Day online awhile ago. It was the original PPV version. Judging by the description, the matches that will be shown in the American version are...

Terry Funk and Dory Funk Jr. vs. two guys (In memory of Bruiser Brody)
Tommy Dreamer/Raven vs. two Japanese guys I don't remember (WEW tag titles)
Tanaka vs. Fuyuki (Loser leaves 15,000 volt cage match for WEW title)
H (Hayabusa unmasked) vs. Hayabusa(fake Mr. Gonnosuke version) with Shawn Michaels as Ref.

Other matches at the show that probably won't be on it were:
Kanemura vs. Balls Mahoney (WEW hardcore title)
Female match that featured three-on-two handicap, and Jazz was on the bad guy side
Six Man ladder match for the six man tag titles

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Enough with the clipping!
Review: Only two of the matches are shown in their entirety, Tanaka/Fuyuki and H/Gannosuke. The other matches are all clipped. The two unclipped matches are excellent, and I can recognize that a major chunk of time had to be devoted to recapping the Hayabusa/Gannosuke fued, but the tape should have been extended to two and a half hours (it clocks in under two) and a couple of more matches (such as the ECW ones, which could have been used a selling point in the U.S.) shown in full. As such, I can only recommend it with reservations.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: You've got to see it to believe it.
Review: The clipping didn't bother me all that much. The Kanemura/ Balls Mahoney hardcore match was unbeleivable, the Kanemura Gullotine leg drop from the scaffold was insane. I am a big fan of Japanese wrestling and of the Heart Break Kid himself. That's right HBK is the ref for the H/ Hayabusa II match. HayabusaII gets in the busness of HBK and gets some Sweet Chin Music for his troubles. H is the real Hayabusa and Hayabusa II is Mr. Ganosuke.Two Japanses guys got their butts handed to them against Terry and Dory Funk Jr, who dedicated the match to the late Bruiser Brody. Tanaka sends Kodo Fuyuki packing in a WEW World title 15,000 volt steel cage "looser leaves town" match with the Roaring Elbow. Then he puts Fuyuki in a garbage truck. Choco Ball Mukei, Ricky Fuji, and "Flying Kid" Ichhara w/ Saina(porn actress) beat Team No Respect w/ Ms. Arai in a 6-man tag team title ladder match. Jazz and two female wrestlers lost to a female Sabu and another Japanese woman. "Bad Boy" Hido gets his butt kicked by "The Bear Killer" Willy Willaims in a Mixed Martial Arts match. Why the hell was a MMA match on an FMW card. I don't care if the styles are intertwined of not just because they are doesn't meen they can have one on FMW's Tenth Anniversary card. This is about FMW not MMA.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: too much clipping!
Review: this dvd has all the matches from the 10th anniversary show.
sadly within 40mins they show all the matches except 3...
tokyopop have made this dvd as more of an advert for the commercial video because they cut down a brilliant 4 hour show to a meesly 2 hour highlights reel.
lets hope in future they show the full events
apart from those gripes, its a great disc with 3 excellent full matches and good highlights albeit short

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: JUDGMENT DAY
