I have gathered all the results of matches from shows in 2012 that have had FREEDOMS/Apache Army as well as former FMW/WMF wrestlers working in them and will continue to update it for the rest of the year. It can be found at http://fmwwrestling.us/MiscResults12.html (Last updated 2/19)

Kintaro Kanemura attended the 2011 Tokyo Sports Awards ceremony on January 12, 2012 in Tokyo as an Apache Army representative. Although Kanemura won no awards, he still wanted to attend the party and meet with other wrestlers including getting his picture taken with New Japan's Hiroshi Tanahashi who won Wrestler of the Year and IGF's Shinichi Suzukawa who won the Newcomer of the Year Award.

Big Japan's Daisuke Sekimoto and Yuji Okabayashi who won the Tag Team of the Year award posed for pictures with putting bikini models in Argentine Backbreakers. Although Kanemura and Sekimoto were friends no pictures were taken with Kanemura due to the sexual harassment scandal Kanemura was involved in four years ago that saw him expelled forever from Big Japan. 

The Apache Army ran their first show on 2012 on January 15, 2012 at the Niigata Nagaoka Hive with announcing an attendance for the show which is not a good sign for how the show did. The main event of the show was a special sponsor match as Shiro Koshinaka teamed up with Tetsuhiro Kuroda to take on the team of Masato Tanaka and Kintaro Kanemura with Kuroda getting the pin over his long time friend Kanemura with a lariat at 11 minutes, 24 seconds. After the match, Tetsuhiro Kuroda got on the mic and challenged Arashi to a WEW World Title match at the next Shin-Kiba 1st Ring show on February 29th with Arashi accepting. It will be Arashi's toughest defense to date as Kuroda is the only person to get a singles victory over Arashi in the Apache Army when he did it last year on February 26th after rolling him up with a Samson Clutch. It will be Kuroda's first shot at the WEW World Title since November 3, 2008 when he challenged and lost to Tomohiro Ishii for the now defunct LOCK UP promotion. The other sponsor match of the show saw the Apache Army team of HIROKI, Yusaku Obata, and Madoka upset the Demolition team of Yoshihiro Takayama, Tomohiko Hashimoto, and Kengo Nishimura when Obata hit a Backdrop on Nishimura to get the win at 12 minutes, 3 seconds. Apache Kosakai won in his last match as a member of the Apache Army promotion by defeating Keita Yano at 8 minutes, 45 seconds with a Buzzsaw Kick. Kosakai will now go back to under his real name as Hiroshi Kosakai as he will be focusing on MMA although he might still work for the Apache Army as a freelancer. Arashi and Shinobu defeated the team of Daisaku Shimoda and a wrestler by the name of BANDIT making his debut for the promotion as Shinobu hit his S.E.X. Shooting Star Press on BANDIT for the win at 13 minutes, 1 second. The opening match was a West Gate Pro offer match as Small Antonio Inoki defeated Tsuneo Yoshie at 6 minutes, 28 seconds with an Enzuigiri.

FREEDOMS will run one of their bigger shows of the year on February 5, 2012 at the Yokohama Radiant Hall. The main event of the show will see Takashi Sasaki and Yuko Miyamoto team up to take on the team of GENTARO and former IWA Japan wrestler Keizo Matsuda. Mammoth Sasaki will face off against his partner and former student in Kamui in a Hardcore Rules Match. HIROKI will defend his Independent Jr. Heavyweight Championship against Ricky Fuji who once held the title belt back when it was the FMW Jr. Title from December 1994 to February 1995. Jun Kasai will team up with Toru Sugiura to take on Tatsuhito Takaiwa and Masashi Takeda. The Winger will take on new SUSUMU who will now be a FREEDOMS regular on the shows. The opening match will have the Kojika Army of Great Kojika, Antonio Honda, and Ken Ohka against the Secret Base team of Mototsugu Shimizu, Bear Fukuda, and Jun Ogawauchi.

FREEDOMS then returns to the Osaka World Hall Pavilion for the first time in 11 months on February 11, 2012 with the main event of Mammoth Sasaki and Kamui getting their rematch for the WEW Hardcore Tag Team Titles as they challenge the champions of Brahman Shu and Brahman Kei with Kamui announcing he wil put up his hair on the line if he and Mammoth do not come away with the titles. The winner of HIROKI against Ricky Fuji on February 5th will defend the Independent Jr. Heavyweight Title against Keita Yano on the show. Jun Kasai and Toru Sugiura team up again to take on the Osaka Pro team of Kuuga and Masamune. A couple of more matches to the show will be added shortly.

Mr. Gannosuke announced that his Kishindo Returns 9 show on March 29, 2012 at the Shin-Kiba 1st Ring has had a date change and will take place on April 10, 2012 instead. Gannosuke announced two matches for the show so far as Jun Kasai will take on Hikaru Sato and in a match between two girls that Mr. Gannosuke has trained it will be SMASH's Aki Shizuku against Ice Ribbon's Miyako Matsumoto.

Yoshihito Sasaki made his All Japan debut on February 3, 2012 at Korakuen Hall as he teamed up with fellow Big Japan wrestler Daisuke Sekimoto and Yuji Okabayashi against the All Japan team of Keiji Muto, Akebono, and Ryota Hama with Sasaki taking the loss for his BJW team after Muto ended up hitting his Shining Wizard on Sasaki to get the win at 16 minutes, 28 seconds.

Atsushi Onita will be making his debut for Satoru Sayama's Real Japan promotion on March 16, 2012 at Korakuen Hall. He will face off against Sayama in his First Tiger Mask gimmick as the first time ever that the early 80's top Jr. Heavyweights from All Japan (Onita) and New Japan (Sayama) will be having a match against each other.

Hisakatsu Oya will be returning to the SMASH promotion on February 19, 2012 at the Tokyo Dome City Hall as he will participate in a match booked by SMASH wrestler AKIRA as a New Japan Alumni match with all four wrestlers starting their career in New Japan. Sabu also returns to Japan on the show teaming up with Jun Kasai against All Japan's KENSO and VEVENO.

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of FMW holding its last ever show which was on February 4, 2002 at Korakuen Hall with the last match ever for the promotion seeing Kodo Fuyuki and The Sandman win the vacant WEW Tag Team Titles against Tetsuhiro Kuroda and Sabu. Shoichi Arai would ended up declaring FMW bankrupt just 11 days later on February 15, 2002. I also recently completed a goal I have had for nearly 10 years for this website which was to collect results of every FMW show in the history of the promotion. I now have results of every show in the history of FMW on this site listed with just one show (5/3/01) missing the results of the first two matches. Everything else is now complete.

FREEDOMS held their first show of 2012 at the Shin-Kiba 1st Ring on January 9th and announced a crowd of 212 which for just a regular Takashi Sasaki promoted show is the best number in the building since May 2010. 

The main event of the show saw Mammoth Sasaki and Kamui defend their WEW Hardcore Tag Team Titles for the second time against Brahman Shu and Brahman Kei. The match started as all four men brawled all over the building including Shu and Mammoth fighting in the stands. Trash cans and ladders would be brought in the ring with Mammoth putting the ladder around his neck and swinging it around to hit both Brahman Brothers. Mammoth would then end up taking one of the Brahman Brothers on the ramp and delivering a Running Powerbomb into the ring. Both Mammoth and Kamui would then grab some chairs and deliver a double Mammoth Home Run to both Brahmans. Kamui would even grab a chain and place it over Brahman Kei's neck and then begin to hang him over the top rope but Shu would manage to save his brother before the referee would end the match by throwing powder in Kamui's face. Shu would end up bringing a barbed wire baseball bat in the ring and while Kei would make sure that Mammoth could not make it back in the ring to make the save Shu would deliver a Zombie Kick to Kamui on the barbed wire baseball bat to get the pinfall at 15 minutes, 33 seconds to win the WEW Hardcore Tag Team Titles to the brothers for the second time. 

Another former FMW title was on the line in the semi-main event as HIROKI defended his Independent Jr. Heavyweight Title against Tatsuhito Takaiwa and although Takaiwa would deliver his Death Valley Bomb it would not be enough as HIROKI would manage to score the upset and deliver his Trance Rave on the former IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion and get the win at 17 minutes, 19 seconds for his second defense of the title. GENTARO teamed up with SUSUMU to take on the K-Dojo tag team of Kengo Mashimo and Ryuichi Sekine with GENTARO delivering a Mudo on Sekine to pick up the win at 13 minutes, 55 seconds to setup a match for GENTARO challenging Mashimo for his Champion of STRONGEST-K Title at K-Dojo's Korakuen Hall show on February 26th. The number one contender for All Japan's Triple Crown Takao Omori teamed up with former IWA Japan wrestler Keizo Matsuda as they defeated the FREEDOMS team of Takashi Sasaki and Jun Kasai after Omori delivered his Axe Bomber on Sasaki for the win at 13 minutes, 5 seconds. The Winger defeated Toru Sugiura with a La Magistral at 12 minutes, 31 seconds. The Kojika Army of Great Kojika, Antonio Honda, and Ken Ohka won the opener against Shinobu, Hercules Senga, and Tsutomu Oosugi after Kojika hit a Running Body Attack on all three men he was against to get the pinfall over all of them at 6 minutes, 42 seconds as Kojika enters his 50th year in pro-wrestling. The next FREEDOMS show will be a bigger than usual show at the Yokohama Radiant Hall on February 5th with the matches for the show being announced soon.

Apache Army held their New Years Eve show on December 31, 2011 at the Shin-Kiba 1st Ring announcing a larger crowd than usual at 250 fans for the show. Apache Kosakai came to the ring to start the show and announced that he would be returning to the ring for 2012 after an injury has taken him out of action the last few months. He announced that he has been training for MMA and would like to start in it sometime in 2012 and as a result was going to return under his real name Hiroshi Kosakai when he returns to the Apache Army on January 15th. The main event of the show saw the WEW Tag Team Champions HIROKI and Yusaku Obata defend their titles against the team of Takeshi Minamino and Manjimaru when Obata getting the pinfall over Manjimaru at 20 minutes, 32 seconds to successfully defend their titles for the first time. The semi-main event saw the heel group called Demolition consisting of Kohei Sato, Tomohiko Hashimoto, and Kengo Nishimura defeat Kintaro Kanemura, Tetsuhiro Kuroda, and Shinobu when Hashimoto hit his XCT finisher on Kanemura for the win at 18 minutes, 25 seconds. Arashi successfully defended his WEW World Title for the fourth time against his tag team partner Rikiya Fudo after he finished off Fudo at 13 minutes, 46 seconds with a Powerbomb. Daisaku Shimoda who was very vocally upset about not being put on Pro-Wrestling Weekly's annual roster almanac section which is a feature the magazine does every year that gives a small bit of information on every active wrestler in Japan, took out his anger about it right away on YOSHIYA before finishing him off with a Running Kneelift at 10 minutes, 21 seconds. Keita Yano and the former DDT wrestler Kenshin defeated the team of Madoka and Shota when Kenshin hit a Northern Light Bomb on Shota at 9 minutes, 32 seconds for the win. Hailey Hatred opened the show defeating REINA's Keiko Aono at 10 minutes, 16 seconds with a lariat. At the end of the show, the entire Apache Army roster came out to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of the promotion starting back up and a moment of silence was held while a picture of Rikimaru was held in memory of his death back in July. 

The Apache Army announced their lineup for the first show of 2012 with it being held at Niigata's Nagaoka Hive. The main event has been built as a special sponsors match most likely meaning they were able to get a sponsor to help pay for the cost to bring in Masato Tanaka and Shiro Koshinaka as Kintaro Kanemura will team up with Masato Tanaka against Tetsuhiro Kuroda teaming up with Shiro Koshinaka. The semi-main event is also listed as a special sponsor match most likely the way they were able to bring back Yoshihiro Takayama as the Demolition team of Yoshihiro Takayama, Tomohiko Hashimoto, and Kengo Nishimura take on the Apache Army team of HIROKI, Yusaku Obata, and Madoka. Apache Kosakai returns under his real name of Hiroshi Kosakai as he takes on Keita Yano. West Gate Pro gets an offer match for the show as Small Antonio Inoki will face off against Yutaka Yoshie's older brother Tsuneo Yoshie. The opening match will have WEW World Champion Arashi teaming up with Shinobu to take on Daisaku Shimoda and a wrestler by the name of the BANDIT.
