WWF's
Hulk Hogan and
WCW's
Rick Rude are featured in the game along with Japanese professional wrestlers like

Fire Pro Gaiden: Blazing Tornado Blazing Tornado was released by
Human Entertainment in
1994. Although the design is similar to the majority of the games in the series, the controls are primarily based on button mashing, rather than executing properly-timed button presses. This installment features a different group of 8 (9 with the boss code) pro-wrestlers, who hail from all corners of the globe to compete, seeking to become a champion out of themselves. Game modes are divided into single and tag team match tournaments. The single division allows players to challenge for the vacant Heroic Wrestling Federation/Neo Heroic Championship.

Super Fire Pro Wrestling: Queen's Special Super Fire Pro Wrestling X Fire Pro Wrestling: Iron Slam '96 '''''Fire Pro Wrestling: Iron Slam '96''''' was developed and released for the
PlayStation by
Human Entertainment. It is the first game in the series to be done in full 3D. Its gameplay, however, retains the familiar timing-based grapple system found in all of the other Fire Pro games. Also, as with the other games in the series, the characters are based on real-life wrestlers that were popular at the time. Unlike its predecessors, it lacks the extensive Edit Mode used to build and create a wrestler.
Super Fire Pro Wrestling X Premium Super Fire Pro Wrestling X Premium was released in 1996 for the
Super Famicom. It has an extensive Edit mode where up to 80 created wrestlers can be stored and used in the game. The game features likenesses of over 100 real-life professional wrestlers that were included with fake names to prevent copyright infringement.
Fan translations of the game surfaced online with the advent of
emulators such as
Snes9x and
ZSNES. These translations not only converted the Japanese text to English, but also replaced the names of each wrestling likeness to its real-life counterpart. Unlike the more frenzied pace and button-mashing of arcade-style wrestling games,
Super Fire Pro Wrestling X Premium focused instead on skill and specific timing. Each wrestler possesses three different 'levels' of attacks, Weak, Medium, and Strong, and must realistically wear down the opponent to use their most powerful attacks without being reversed or countered.
Fire Pro Wrestling S: 6 Men Scramble Fire Pro Wrestling S: 6 Men Scramble was released in 1996 for the

Battle Royal, the debut of
Death Match and the return of
Gruesome Fighting that had not been seen since
Super Fire Pro Wrestling Special. The game also includes a deep wrestler edit mode. As its name suggests,
Fire Pro Wrestling S: 6 Men Scramble was the first game in the Fire Pro series to feature six wrestlers at the same time.
