Did a bit of digging into the themes for the various wrestlers in Super Fire Pro Wrestling 3 III Final Bout. For whatever reason, none of the lists that I found had any theme include the name of Killer Blaster (The Fire Pro version of Kensuke Sasaki's Power Warrior gimmick). It's common in Fire Pro for wrestlers to use the same themes. In Final Bout, Riki Choshu (Hurricane Rikimaru), Masa Saito (Zombie Masa), Hiroshi Hase (Hiroshi Date), and Kensuke Sasaki (Storm Kensuke) all share the same theme. Choshu and Saito teamed together both in Combination Tag as Midnight Revolution and in real life as a part of Ishin Gundan. Sasaki and Hase also famously teamed together. In addition, Saito trained Sasaki, and both Sasaki and Hase were trained by Choshu. The Road Warriors/Urban Blasters share a theme with Big Van Vader/Hitman Saber and Bam Bam Bigelow/Smasher "Gan Gan" Gigas, reflecting their shared status as gigantic, bruising, almost otherworldly gaijin tag teams. Yet when I look at various sources for the games OST, Killer Blaster isn't included among either group. Is he lumped in with the Urban Blasters, or does he share his theme with someone else?

Killer Blaster is usually lumped in with the Urban Blasters. Beyond Warrior's association with Hawk as The Hellraisers, the pairing makes sense on a practical level simply because the Blasters are encountered twice in World Championship mode's tag division (Killer & Knight Blaster early on, then Knight and Iron Blaster towards the end).  In Final Bout's Elimination Match mode, there is an available team called the 'Wild Blasters', which includes Knight, Iron, Killer, Astro and Spike. The latter two having separate themes that are not shared with the Urban Blasters. |
