If fascism was going to work, it would have worked by now.
Time for something else.

It worked so well it took two superpowers and the biggest empire in history to destroy it.

Are you talking about the Polish military junta in 1939? Spain under Franco? Pinochet? The Second Republic of Portugal? Vichy France? The Free City of Danzig? The Kuomintang? Guatemala's CIA-installed "banana republic" for the benefit of the United Fruit Company? El Salvador? Argentina? Uruguay, Honduras, Cuba, Nicaragua, Bolivia?
So many failed regimes that ruined their nations. I'm pretty sure I would remember if they were destroyed by "two superpowers and the biggest empire in history".

AFAIK none of those were fascist except for possibly Cuba.
Edit: I'm talking about Castro, especially before he decided he was a Communist, in case that wasn't clear. Peronism actually sounds a lot like fascism, but I'll admit I haven't looked into that enough to pass judgement on it.
I would say that there are three main categories of which I would describe as fascist movements getting into power (and the most exemplary countries):
European/First Wave: Germany, Italy
Islamic/Arab Nationalist: Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya
"Red Fascism": China, North Korea, Romania
