MLW NEWS AND NOTES

By Mike Johnson on 2019-08-22 21:44:00

MLW: FUSION is now available on Playstation Vue, which has netted the series an additional 500,000 viewers.  MLW is working on several additional streaming platforms to increase the footprint of their weekly series.

The promotion expects to sell out their 9/7 debut in Dallas, Texas at the 1,700 seat NYTEX Sports Centre. As of this writing, only general admission bleacher sears are left.  Thus far, the promotion has only announced three bouts - The War Chamber match with Tom Lawlor & The Von Erichs & Low Ki vs. CONTRA Unit, The Dynasty vs. The Hart Foundation in a Best of Three Falls bout for MLW Tag Team titles and Brian Pillman Jr. vs. Brian Pillman.   As noted previously, Kevin Von Erich will be attending.

Alex Hammerstone defeated Go Shiozaki in his first night at the N-1 VICTORY tournament and is expected to get a big push in Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan.

Ricky Martinez will be the first MLW star heading to The Crash in Mexico, working their 9/7 Anniversary event, so he will miss MLW's Dallas debut.

Savio Vega will miss the Dallas event and will be back full-time this October working as a Producer for the company.  With the recent addition of Dr. Tom Prichard (who starts in Dallas), the remainder of the producers/agents are Low Ki, George Carroll and  Josef Samael.

MLW recently learned a pair of fans gave their newborn baby the middle name of Josef-Fatu, inspired by the CONTRA Unit talents.
