    I looked at the references in the wiki article to be fair and went from there. It lead to Revolutionary Anti-Imperialist Movement or RAIM and it's affiliated groups. All the names you cite didn't aspired to a fully formed interpretation. They didn't have a party that had a "Maoist Third Worldist" postfix and didn't call themselves Maosit Third Wordlist either. There's a distinction between MTW-thought, which mostly concerns itself with what to do when you're inside the imperial core and anti-imperialist struggle in the third world itself, which is what Fanon, Che, Shaikh, Sankara and Amin do.

        It's the other way round. MTW-thought is the Marxist tendency in the US (the name is like Mao Zedong-Thought is in the PRC). Everything else that you mentioned (Fanon, Che etc.) isn't really "Something"-Thought. It's just general Marxist analysis of specific conditions and not something you can really group under one name. Like, look up RAIM and you'll see what I mean.
