Atsushi Onita: Thanks To The AEW Revolution Blast, Fans Re-Evaluated Me

Atsushi Onita and Matt Tremont are headed for a showdown on October 31 as Tremont comes out of retirement to face Onita.

Onita made an appearance on AEW television ahead of the exploding barbed wire deathmatch between Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley at AEW Revolution and launched FMW-E in July.

Speaking with Tokyo Sports, Onita explained how the exploding dud from AEW helped him in the United States.

"At the time of AEW, I sent a cheering message, but AEW prepared for the current blast independently, and I was not involved at all. However, as a result, the fans were disappointed by the sloppy blast. I was also disappointed and felt responsible, but thanks to the salty blast of AEW, fans all over the United States re-evaluated me. This time, the original current blast nationwide. I'll surprise the professional wrestling fans. AEW, this is the real current blast of Made in Japan," he exclaimed.

The blast engineer who helps Onita with FMW-E in Japan will travel to the United States to set up the explosions for Onita's match with Tremont.
