MLW: The Thread
Anyone else watching MLW these days? it's up free on Youtube and they have tons of great talent, lots of LU/ROH/Impact guys.
Watching Battle Riot tonight while trying to catch up. |

I was watching regularly but bien sports was dropped on Direct TV and I haven't found the time to look the full shows up on YouTube. Still catch a backstage segment or promo they'll post though.

I'm just watching the episodes with Penta to catch up. Lucha Bros vs. ACH & Rich Swann was nuts.
Now watching Lucha Bros vs. Drago and Horus. Which will be off the chain. |

I’m going to the NYC show on the 4th. Is Daga any good?

What makes MLW special if I can watch Penta on Lucha Underground or Impact the same week? |

That doesn't bother me because I'd rather watch MLW than IMPACT or Lucha U.

I’m not watching either weekly at the minute so maybe I’ll take a look at MLW on your recommendation.

Only have seen the Battle Riot show from them but do really like that all their shows are on Youtube.
Probably going to watch more of their stuff once this season of Lucha Underground is done or WWE hits their slow period of the year. |

I want them to do well and I like their presentation, but nothing has really hooked me yet. I liked Shane Strickland as a first champ, and Low Ki as current champ sounds good. But ti all sounds "getting there."

Is Tony Schiavone a full-time commentator for them or does he only do certain events? Because I've grown to love him and may base my watching on this alone.

So Low-Ki is their World Heavyweight Champion. Not a big fan of him. Also, I find it silly when little guys hold "Heavyweight" championships though I kinda accept it because in wrestling nowadays the "heavyweight" part is just there to make it sound more prestigious.
However, the secondary title is apparently called the "Middleweight Championship". Held by some guy named Maxwell J. Friedman. How fucking small is THAT guy!? |

He's commentated every episode I've seen. the color guy varies from time to time. Sometimes it's Matt Striker, which makes me happy.

I followed Court Bauer and Pollock's podcast back when LAW was active. I am so glad that MLW is back and doing well as an alternative product.

He and Fenix were originally booked for the show but then were taken off shortly after... Thought it was because they were going to WWE but I guess it was something else
Nah are you |

idk... was pouring blood from his ear but might have been a "blood packet" or something... he had his hand over his ear the whole time
The whole match was really "stiff" though and they were hitting each other really hard... Had a bunch of welts on their chests and stuff

Yeah Low Ki is a horrible choice as champion, especially a heaveyweight championship.

MJF has a great gimmick and I enjoy his matches way more than any Low Ki match I've ever seen. He's not really small at all, just a normal sized wrestler.
