Lethal Weapon was a Japanese professional wrestling group, known as a stable, that worked for Frontier Martial-Arts Wrestling (FMW) from February 1995 to September 1996.
In February 1995, Tarzan Goto formed Lethal Weapon with Hisakatsu Oya and Ricky Fuji. When Goto quit FMW in April 1995, Oya and Fuji stayed together as a tag team known as The Love Guns, while increasing the numbers in Lethal Weapon. On May 5, 1995 Fuji and Oya defeated the team of Mr. Pogo and Yukihiro Kanemura to win the FMW Brass Knuckles Tag Team Championship, holding them until September 5, 1995. During that time Lethal Weapon increased the numbers by stealing Mr. Pogo and Super Leather from the W*ING group and then later added The Gladiator and Horace Boulder into the group as well. Shortly after joining the team The Gladiator won the FMW Brass Knuckles Heavyweight Championship when he defeated Hayabusa to win the title. On December 21, 1995 Oya and Horace Boulder won the FMW Brass Knuckles Tag Team Championship, defeating Daisuke Ikeda and Yoshiaki Fujiwara. During this time, Lethal Weapon feuded with FMW and W*ING in a triangle feud that would last over a year and a half. During this time, Super Leather would betray Lethal Weapon to rejoin W*ING. By the end of 1995, FMW and Lethal Weapon became allies against the growing W*ING faction.
