MLW NEWS AND NOTES

By Mike Johnson on 2021-01-25 10:40:00

The leading titles for the second MLW series being shopped around of late are currently MLW Rebellion and MLW Underground, but that is subject to change.  Which one will be the pick?  You can make your wager now using promo codes on Betminded!

MLW will release the cold open for Wednesday's episode of Fusion tomorrow.  It will be headlined by Richard Holliday vs. Savio Vega in a Caribbean Strap Match for the IWA Caribbean Championship.  Also set for that show is Tom Lawlor responding to "negative reports" about his Filthy Island episode on 2/10. 

The 2/3 episode will be headlined by National Openweight Champion Alexander Hammerstone vs. Mads Krugger in a bare-knuckle "Baklei Brawl."

They have released the following tease for Salina de la Renta's interview Alicia Atout, where la Renta will be questioned about the "sale of Promociones Dorado" -
