NJPW star and former WWE (NXT) champion, KUSHIDA graces the Philippines for the first time
Filipino Pro Wrestling (FPW) is set to close the year with its most explosive event yet with its flagship show, FPW Astig brings world-class professional wrestling to Makati on December 7. Headlining this year-end spectacle is the historic first Philippine appearance of international wrestling icon, KUSHIDA.
Six-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion
Multiple-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion
Two-time Best of the Super Juniors winner
WWE NXT Cruiserweight Champion
One of the most celebrated hybrid wrestlers of his generation
KUSHIDA has competed on the biggest stages in Japan and the United States, bringing with him a style that combines elite technical grappling, lightning-fast aerial offense, and his signature Hoverboard Lock. His arrival marks a major milestone for the Philippine wrestling scene, and Filipino fans will witness his world-renowned talent up close for the very first time.
For this special debut, KUSHIDA teams up with FPW standout Cali Nueva, whose dynamic in-ring presence and breakout momentum make him one of FPW’s can’t-miss rising stars.
The Year Ends With a Bang
As FPW’s final event of 2025, FPW Astig is designed to deliver major matchups and unforgettable moments. Fans can expect the strongest card of the year — a true “year-ender” for Philippine wrestling.
Leading the charge are FPW’s Kings: the FPW Champion, Quatro and Metro Manila Champion, Ralph Imabayashi, both of whom have carried the brand with consistency, athletic excellence, and exceptional performances throughout the year. Both men will defend their titles against hungry grapplers who aim to reach the mountaintop.
FPW Astig also showcases the future of the promotion with the debut of new wrestlers who will bolster the women’s and tag team divisions. These arrivals signal FPW’s continuing growth and its commitment to elevating diverse talent across the roster.
The Must-See Wrestling Event of 2025
With KUSHIDA’s landmark appearance, championship-level performances, division-shaping debuts, and a card built to end the year at full throttle, FPW Astig is poised to be a must-see wrestling event of 2025.
