What are the expectations?

I think that MLW's best hope for tonight is to just simply deliver. They have at best the makings for a really memorable wrestling card. Topped with a main event (Fatu/LA Park) that could be the best wrestling brawl of the year. Aries and Hart likely looking to have a spotfest to put them both back on the map along with MLW. The tornado tag should be a lot of fun and I'm expecting some creative spots in that one for sure.
Thatcher and Lawlor could be MOTN if they do what they have the potential to do.

Court said tonight is the next phase for MLW. I wonder what exactly that will mean?

It's the first ever PPV, first ever live 3hr show, each match will have more opportunity for time than the usual MLW show. I'm expecting a new pace for the show plus it's the first big show for AJ Hirsch on commentary.

I think that what MLW really needs is to just deliver a solid show that people will talk about. A critical success will put them above ROH with all of its current troubles and a financial success could even launch them past Impact on the perception level.

I see MLW/Impact/ROH as very neck and neck in many ways and in this new wrestling war, not all will last. ROH already seems to be teetering on doom... Impact and MLW seem to be rolling forward. Very exciting times.

Can the mods plz look at the source code for this page I think there is an error preventing ppl from posting about MLW SUPER FIGHT.

Just started the pre show. Missed the first match but the stairway to hell match is about to start.

Simple Fan

Nevermind they ran the promo for the that match but instead its Air Wolf vs Gino Medina.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 07:34 PM
Okay so my opinion is that the pre show is going to suck and has thus far. MLW under card guys lol at a lot of them.

The arena looks like shit. It reminds me of an old ECW arena though but yeah it looks like shit.

Are you going to order?

Nah, feel too tired + have to do some shit... might watch some of it via a stream though

The card looks pretty tight. They make everyone look great in their promo photos. I like the idea of the Injustice gimmick.

That Air Wolf guy's mask looks retarded. What's with the ears?

Sixx
11-02-2019, 07:53 PM
Surprised there's a white guy in Injustice.

Sixx
11-02-2019, 07:55 PM
But of course they gave him a bandana, so he probably has a wigger gimmick.

Jordan

He does. Jordan Oliver is his name, he's got potential. Reminds me of Jack Evans. Probably has used meth before I'd say.

Injustice is the worst part of MLW other than Air Wolf.

MJF baby

Damn @ them not using MJF's theme...

Really good tag match.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 08:17 PM
Wow great finisher from the Von Erich's! New champs, really good showing. Probably saying adios to MJF soon.

Simple Fan

Good match, figured it go that way though.

Who do you think they are going to announce an affiliate partnership with tonight? WXW? NWA? Women of Wrestling? WHO?

@Jordan X what's the story behind Injustice's gimmick

Jordan
11-02-2019, 08:26 PM
Commentary is very solid.

Simple Fan
11-02-2019, 08:27 PM
Injustice is a waste of Kotto Brazil.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 08:28 PM
@Jordan X what's the story behind Injustice's gimmick

Racial injustice gimmick then they got Jordan Oliver involved and it became more specific to referee's treatment of them as a group. They silenced themselves with duct tape over their mouths for a while ... it wasn't good and they were shit but honestly they've changed their gear a bit and look a lot better tonight. They've come a long way. Oliver is really good and will end up in AEW down the line I think.

Triple A

Did Schiavone stop doing commentary for them or is he just not there tonight?

Jordan
11-02-2019, 08:33 PM
Lots of bad lucha spots in this match. I mean I get it. MLW offers all kind of styles... but they have a lot of green luchadors.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 08:34 PM
Did Schiavone stop doing commentary for them?

Yeah I am not certain if his MLW deal was up or if AEW bought it out but they came to an amicable end. Court said there were no further dates with Tony and wished him well.

Triple A
11-02-2019, 08:35 PM
I don't like how the guys on commentary have very similar voices.......

The guy with the slightly deeper voice is better imo... doesn't put on the phony over the top "announcer" voice

Jordan
11-02-2019, 08:35 PM
AJ Hirsche took his place. He was on Tough Enough when Steve Austin was the host. He's doing well. The end of that triangle match was pretty cool.

Simple Fan
11-02-2019, 08:39 PM
This one should be good.

Sixx
11-02-2019, 08:40 PM
Um, does Teddy Hart have a Glasgow smile?

Seriously, to anyone watching - does he? Or does it just look that way in the pic?

This is a Glasgow smile, those scars.

Triple A
11-02-2019, 08:43 PM
It's facial hair

Sixx
11-02-2019, 08:45 PM
Oh wow, this must be the dumbest facial hair(style) I've ever seen.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 09:00 PM
These guys are putting it all on the line!

Jordan
11-02-2019, 09:01 PM
Wow! I really thought Aries was going to take the title, Hart! Damn he is relentless.

Simple Fan
11-02-2019, 09:09 PM
Yeah Hart has become one of my favorites to watch recently.

Simple Fan
11-02-2019, 09:11 PM
Never been a big Low Ki fan and Pillman Jr. hasn't really impressed in the ring any. That being said it's looking like it's going to be slugfest early on.

Simple Fan
11-02-2019, 09:18 PM
Well damn, didn't see a ref stoppage coming.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 09:18 PM
Damn what a knockout. I enjoyed that much more than anticipated.

Last two matches have lived up to the super fight name.

Main event was cool... Good show

Any title changes?

Jordan
11-02-2019, 11:08 PM
The title matches were all good. The main event was also a really good blood bath... reminds me of an early ECW Arena show or early ECW PPV. Some good some bad. Nothing spectacular. MLW runs a lot of shitty venues. The venue the filmed at in Florida and the Melrose in Queens are too small for MLW and Impact. I understand they want to run in markets where people are watching Bein Sports and that's smart but pick a halfway decent looking venue ffs.

Tag team.

Jordan
11-02-2019, 11:11 PM
Overall I feel underwhelmed. I keep wanting something about MLW to be a "revolution" ... it's like they don't have the PWG (or what was once the ROH) quality of matches to make themselves stand out, they don't have the characters that cut great promos (like NWA does) ... it just feels very exhibition to me.

I understand they are creating a structure and a title weight class system and over time that will possibly matter a bit, but right now it's not enough.

If I had to pick between Impact, MLW and ROH I think I'm going to pick Impact.

Simple Fan
11-02-2019, 11:19 PM
Good show and yeah nothing really stands out as great. Didn't think it was a bad venue but they are not very good a dressing everything up to look better on TV. Their lighting is basic as well.

Even though it's small, the Melrose Ballroom looks nice on TV with the huge screen at the entrance, and good lighting and stuff

The place last night looked like total shit... like a dimly lit high school gym

Seems the general praise for the show is higher than what I saw. IDK.
