[Triple A]

Cool I'll watch it...

MLW was always fun when I went to their shows

[Mr. Nerfect]

I really, really want to get into MLW. I just haven’t.

[Jordan]

I was at both Battle Riot's before this, they were fun. There will certainly be some unexpected cameo entrants. I'm expecting something solid to "relaunch" after the company has been shut down for so long. MLW is much more intriguing to me than ROH, even though you will get better match quality at ROH. I've just been waiting and waiting for MLW to hit that level of match quality.

[slik]

I really, really want to get into MLW. I just haven’t.

tonight could be your night

[slik]

Good opening video package

[Jordan]

Goddamn this crowd ...

[Triple A]

Enough already with this guy... long winded ass promo, feel like he is bumming out the crowd

[Jordan]

Diabetes running wild

[slik]

wish this guy would shut up

[Triple A]

I hope Gringo Loco wrestles... funny gimmick

[slik]

Hope Savio Vega wins the Battle Riot

[Jordan]

These guys smell like the projects let me tell you.

[slik]

ring looks small to hold 40 people, concerned

[Triple A]

Wish Joey Styles was on commentary

[Jordan]

Konnan works everywhere

[Jordan]

ring looks small to hold 40 people, concerned

It's Royal Rumble style gauntlet so they won't have that many in at once.

[Jordan]

I never went to an MLW show and didn't leave with a headache from the scent of dirty clothes, beer, stale cigarettes and BO.

[Triple A]

lol this segment is awful

[slik]

I guess Danny Limelight is done rassling on AEW's YouTube shows

[Jordan]

I guess Danny Limelight is done rassling on AEW's YouTube shows

Onto MLW Youtube shows!

[Evil Vito]

I'd like to have sexy times with Alicia Atout

[Jordan]

When I went to Mania week tapings for MLW I must've seen like a dozen Contra angles all accompanied by their ridiculous theme music, so I hate Contra.

[Triple A]

Is this show just the "Battle Riot" or other shit... 2 hour show or what

[Noid]

Did they hire a 10 year old to edit these promo packages?

[slik]

King Mo to win if Savio Vega loses!

[Jordan]

Is this show just the "Battle Riot" or other shit... 2 hour show or what

I thought it was supposed to be an hour but that's not seemly likely.

[Triple A]

Filthy Tom Lawlor the sweatiest wrestler I have ever seen wrestle... Remember him being insanely sweaty both matches I've seen him in... sweatier than Shane McMahon

[slik]

please have a match or something

[Triple A]

what the hell is going on... why are they putting on all of this filler shit

[Jordan]

No joke this Lawlor segment is about as good as most of the backyard promo's we get here on TPWW.

[slik]

davey richards has CENA NUFF of whatever promotion he was most recently in

[Jordan]

Davey Richards was once such a great worker. I hope he still is. Always reminded me of Dynamite Kid.

[slik]

Tom Lawlor looks like a hybrid of Jake Hager and Kenny Omega, like they had a DNA baby or something

[Evil Vito]

Richards vs Lawlor seems like a good start

[Jordan]

Davey Richards should have put some product in his hair.

[Triple A]

Filthy Tom Lawlor the sweatiest wrestler I have ever seen wrestle... Remember him being insanely sweaty both matches I've seen him in... sweatier than Shane McMahon

Feel like Shane McMahon would already be "beet red" and dripping sweat by this point so maybe not sweatier than Shane

[weather vane]

Is it me or is the crowd awful? Like so quiet.

[Jordan]

TJP is actually really good IMO.

[Jordan]

Is it me or is the crowd awful? Like so quiet.

They are struggling through type 2 diabetes cut some slack.

[slik]

I wonder if LowKi is in this

[Jordan]

I feel like this match is going to have a lot of AEW Dark cast offs.

[slik]

lol at cows

[Jordan]

I wonder if LowKi is in this

Probably. Court is the only guy who will work with him these days. I once ran into him at a show and I was like so much bigger than him and he was in a hoodie and looked at me like Roman Reigns looking at Finn Balor "Acknowledge me", but I didn't.

[slik]

KING MO HAS CENA NUFF

[Jordan]

LOL @ Mo, comes in, botches suplex and drops Moriarty on his head.

[Evil Vito]

Tankman such a big fat guy throwing bombs, I love it

[Triple A]

nice, glad they got this other big fat guy to replace my man Barrington Hughes

https://dasg7xwmldix6.cloudfront.net/episodes/1262111_7jd4FCFE.jpg

[slik]

STD in the YT chat instead of TPWW

sm damn h

[Jordan]

Calvin Tankman is exactly the body type for a man that you'd never want to see in speedo style tights.

[Triple A]

Gringo Loco baby

[Jordan]

GRINGO LOCO SO SMOOTH

[Triple A]

hell yeah Gringo Loco

[Triple A]

nice... glad the interesting wrestlers are coming in finally

[Jordan]

I'm sure Gingo Loco's coworkers at the freight packing factory would be really surprised with his wrestling moves.

[slik]

what happen to barrington hughes

[slik]

music playing so long cracking me up (in a good way)

[Jordan]

They should plays Armis and other Mexican music through this match.

[Jordan]

what happen to barrington hughes

He was let go from MLW before the pandemic if I remember correctly.

[Triple A]

what happen to barrington hughes

Asked for his release... idk if he's still wrestling... doesn't seem healthy for him to be wrestling tbh!

[slik]

suplex assassin seems good

[slik]

damn

barrington hughes a mlw legend

[weather vane]

Lol King Mo is so so so bad hahaaaaaa.

[Jordan]

Okay so I don't think anyone has been eliminated right? Who's gonna come in and clean house? The Judge (don't make me attempt to spell his name)?

[Jordan]

Savio Vega fucking people up!

[Jordan]

Jordan Oliver was so annoying on the mic. But he is pretty good in the ring and he is like double the size he was last year.

[Triple A]

The Beastman...

[Fignuts]

Jesus this tiny ring

[slik]

beastman for the win

[Jordan]

LOL @ The Beastman! Found at local Philly Bar

[Fignuts]

Lol beastman batching the slide into the ring

[Fignuts]

Son of havoc

Freakin sweet

[Fignuts]

lol so ridiculous. How are they gonna do moves even?

[Fignuts]

Beastman with a great iron claw sell

[Jordan]

I wish ICP were doing commentary for this.

[Triple A]

The Beastman eliminated...

[slik]

lol at puzzle pats like at a gymnastic school for the mats outside

[Fignuts]

I don't think that guy is 6'8"

[Fignuts]

lol Kim chee

[Triple A]

lol @ Zicky Dice

[Fignuts]

Enduka seems good.

[slik]

kevin ku seems decent

[Jordan]

Kevin Ku looks too naked.

[Triple A]

Is Tankman still in, don't see him

edit: oh there he is

[Triple A]

tiny ass mats covering 30% of the concrete floor in this over the top rope battle royal

[Fignuts]

So many generic rap entrance themes

[Jordan]

Well that was crap way to get ride of Tankman and Njuka.

[Triple A]

LA Park baby

[Fignuts]

Oh shit at big dudes going out.

[Triple A]

Well that was crap way to get ride of Tankman and Njuka.

Yeah what even happened, I missed it and they just glossed over it

[Jordan]

That's not LA Park.

[Jordan]

Yeah what even happened, I missed it and they just glossed over it

They just toppled over together.

[slik]

filthy tom a dam evil opportunist

[Fignuts]

lol tom lawler

[Evil Vito]

Lmao Filthy Tom rules

[Evil Vito]

Lol this was taped during Daivari’s furlough

[Triple A]

Perhaps a World Heavyweight Championship shot for Zicky Dice?

[Fignuts]

Yes!

[Fignuts]

Where's jbl?

[Fignuts]

Jesus those punches

[Evil Vito]

Funny thing was that WWE’s trademark on Simon Gotch ended a few months after his WWE release and it was never re-upped because who the fuck cares about Simon Gotch?

One of the few guys with a WWE-assigned name he ended up getting to keep.

[Jordan]

This is terrible.

[Evil Vito]

Where's jbl?

Lol JBL being forced to job to Meanie in exchange for no lawsuit remains one of the best Smackdown moments

[Fignuts]

Hope these von erichs don't kill themselves.

[slik]

this is a huge mess but it's sort of endearing

[Fignuts]

Heard a lot about hammerstone.

[Evil Vito]

Yeah this makes the Casino Battle Royales look organized by comparison

But it’s mindless fun. I can’t help but enjoy battle royals, especially times ones

[slik]

fat ninja for the win

[Evil Vito]

LMAO Kwang

[Fignuts]

Why would they call themselves sentai?

[Jordan]

Jesus they are really scrapping the bottom with Kwang.

[Fignuts]

Fucking kwang

[Triple A]

lol Kwang is Savio Vega right

[Jordan]

Why would they call themselves sentai?

That's the name of the factory where they work nights on security together.

[Fignuts]

Jesus they are really scrapping the bottom with Kwang.

I kind of love it. How many times can you see the same guys come out as surprise entrants for this sort of match?

[Evil Vito]

lol Kwang is Savio Vega right

Lol yes

[slik]

Contra seems really boring

[Triple A]

damn almost killed that guy throwing him head first towards the exposed floor...

[Fignuts]

Damn mlw has a lot of hosses

[Fignuts]

Contra seems really boring

Yeah but they've got Jacob fatu so it evens out.

[Jordan]

I think Daivari has been calling the match.

[slik]

did davey richards get eliminated, where he at

[Fignuts]

Hammerstone kind of looks like the knock off hulk hogan that you would see in arcade and snes wrestling games in the 90's

[Jordan]

https://i1.wp.com/mlw.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Logan-Creed-11-606625167-1597769689844.jpg?resize=768%2C506&ssl=1

Mads Krugger looks just like Luke Gallows.

[slik]

Van Hammerstone

[slik]

He's Hammering Up

[Fignuts]

He looks cool in that picture. Needs to take off the dumb mask he's wearing.

[slik]

hahahaha

[Fignuts]

lol at wcw style knock off music.

[Evil Vito]

Hammerstone looks 45 years old in the face but he’s only 30. Damn.

[slik]

lol

[Jordan]

I really don't see MLW doing anything on Vice TV. I don't know who would want to watch this on a regular basis.

[slik]

yeah...if the episode was only 30 minutes I might watch it on YT so I can skip talking stuff

[Jordan]

yeah...if the episode was only 30 minutes I might watch it on YT so I can skip talking stuff

Anyone MLW has had that was good is now working elsewhere. MJF, Lucha Bro's, Davey Boy Smith Jr...Jimmy Havoc was pretty good there, Mance Warner was great.

[Jordan]

I wish MLW well and I am glad they are around for the guys to make a little bit of money but I don't think I can watch that again.

[Fignuts]

That tankman guy seemed good. Jacob fatu is great.

[Triple A]

Anyone MLW has had that was good is now working elsewhere. MJF, Lucha Bro's, Davey Boy Smith Jr...Jimmy Havoc was pretty good there, Mance Warner was great.

Sammy Guevara too

[Bad News Gertner]

Lol that was horrible. I actually watched this.

Hammerstone sucks. He throws chick forearms.

That big tall black dude EJ something is going to be a star.

[Evil Vito]

Can't believe WWE let EJ Nduka go. Guy looks like a million bucks and moves great.

[slik]

Is Richard Holliday good

Is Low Ki still in MLW

[Bad News Gertner]

Can't believe WWE let EJ Nduka go. Guy looks like a million bucks and moves great.

Wait, he was under contract with the WWE and they let him go? Come on.

[slik]

went back to see how davey richards got eliminated...got eliminated during simon gotch's entrance but they didn't show it on camera despite him being entrant #1 and the announcers didn't mention him being eliminated

smh

[Mr. Nerfect]

I’m always skeptical of developmental guys WWE releases when they look great. Surprised EJ Nduka actually seemed to impress people. Wouldn’t surprise me to see WWE pick him back up.

[Evil Vito]

Wait, he was under contract with the WWE and they let him go? Come on.

He was part of the release wave earlier this year, used the ring name Ezra Judge but don’t think he actually made it to TV, think he was doing NXT live events before COVID

That’s also why “The Judge” is his nickname

[slik]

Looking at their roster page, I guess Low Ki is no longer with MLW


https://mlw.com/fighters/

[Triple A]

Is Richard Holliday good

I know he used to be in a stable with MJF and he was basically MJF's lackey... then they started to try to push him when MJF was leaving, but he was like 92837x less charismatic than MJF and seemed uncomfortable on the mic

[slik]

Anyone MLW has had that was good is now working elsewhere. MJF, Lucha Bro's, Davey Boy Smith Jr...Jimmy Havoc was pretty good there, Mance Warner was great.

was just looking thru their YT page and saw they had Karrion Kross, Matt Riddle, MVP, Timothy Thatcher too

[slik]

lolllllllll
