The Dearly Departed is Fearless Championship Wrestling's version of Wrestle Mania, it is held annually on the last Sunday of April. The main attraction is the winner of the Race Against Time Battle Royal, The Crown Tournament and the New Beginnings Tournament face off against the FcW World Heavyweight Champion, assuming the other three are still with the federation. If one is the World Champion at that time the man who they won the championship from will take their place. This match always takes place in FcW's most famed match up the Fearless Match
