Forty wrestlers will compete with the winner getting a World Title shot anytime, anywhere. Among the wrestlers scheduled to appear in the iconic fight are Pentagon Jr., Rey Fenix, John Morrison, “Filthy” Tom Lawlor, Barrington Hughes, MJF, the Hart Foundation, Sami Callihan, Kevin Sullivan, Rich Swann, ACH, Joey Ryan, Jake Hager and other surprise fighters. The idea behind the special was created by Court Bauer, the primary owner of Major League Wrestling.

The special program will feature famed American sports broadcaster, Tony Schiavone, as he calls the action alongside Rich Bocchini.

Major League Wrestling: BATTLE RIOT will air Friday, July 27th at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT on beIN SPORTS.
