'''HUSTLE''' (also known as '''Fighting Opera HUSTLE''') was a UsefulNotes/{{Japan}}ese ProfessionalWrestling promotion founded by Wrestling/NobuhikoTakada and others in 2004. It was produced under the banner of Wrestling/ProWrestlingZERO1 and Dream Stage Entertainment, the mother company that owned UsefulNotes/MixedMartialArts promotion PRIDE Fighting Championship at the time, but the premise was completely different from either MMA or Japanese wrestling from its era. HUSTLE took Wrestling/{{WWE}}'s "sports entertainment" and turned it up to eleven, filling its arenas with [[WidgetSeries weird storylines]], over-the-top gimmicks and {{Anime}} reminiscences, and was populated by [[AllStarCast renowned wrestling veterans]], freelancers and even tarentos and TV personalities. The result was a scenic concept named "Fighting Opera", which gave the promotion its subtitle.
