Please come to NJPW or AEW, and not shitty NXT
Japan would be his best fit. I'm betting NXT though. Not sure I'd want him in AEW.
FUCK NXT THEY AIN'T FILTHY ENOUGH
 




Great thing for MLW to keep Fatu for another year I would imagine, especially since WWE and other bigger companies would love to have him.


That is awesome news, Fatu is a true monster that if he can stay 1-2 more years in MLW we will benefit. I fear if the WWE gets a hold of him they’ll make him into Umaga 2.0, and Umaga was talented but they would not know how to use him.
 
Funny timing
I just made a thread about her in the AEW section
They originally had a kind of arrangement with her, Cody wanted her to go by the name Alicia A
Wonder what happened?

Very good signing for MLW

Nice, who is she?

My only complaint with the show is that I'm not a big fan of mixing MMA and wrestling, it's just too different imo. Like the BJJ purple belt that wrestles in his gi, it just comes across as so gimmicky when it's not real. And the BJJ submissions look so bad in pro wrestling imo. In real life they're quick and it just looks silly in wrestling imo. More of a preference than a complain I guess. I like how those guys mix in pro wrestling moves like German suplexes and etc. I'm just not a fan of incorporating the real life martial art backgrounds into pro wrestling. Kurt Angle probably did it best, but at the same time he used pro wrestling moves and his submissions weren't tacky looking. Armbars/kimuras/triangles just don't look organic in wrestling.
 
You knew it was an angle and Lawlor was staying once they mentioned it on television. Really the tweet should have been the tip off as that wasn't done before either.

Good to see MLW can pay competitive wage to keep their talent. Competition is good for everybody.

When will the AEW talent become exclusive to AEW?
 
I heard a month or two ago... Court said MLW would be removing fusion from Youtube, because they weren't making any money and looking for a TV partner for 2020. Has there been any updates since then??

Also, any word on if MLW is in financially healthy? You would think with them signing Fatu/Lawlor to multi-year deals, that would be in a pretty good position since i assume they got big deals.... but at the same time, where are making money, if not the YT views. Seems like attendance has been good, and the PPV did alright. But if they leave youtube, and don't get a decent TV deal, won't they be in a bit of trouble? Maybe i'm overthinking this. Thoughts?
 
Last night show was awful.
:lmao :bunk NO

Mancer/Jimmy stole the show in the one of the funniest coolest brawls I've ever seen. Carjacking some poor fuck, Mancer's uncle running a guy over leading to Mancer saying he ain't going back to the joint. Fighting in Havoc's house, and shoving his head down the shitter. FIGHTING IN FULL SAIL AND RICH SAYING HE USED TO WORK THERE :lmao. Havoc getting moonshine thrown in his face before being kidnapped. Plus, the fight back in the arena was awesome, and set the blowoff up perfectly. Just a tremendous piece of work.

"THIS IS KIDNAPPING"

"DON'T WORRY, OL MANCER'S DONE THIS A COUPLE OF TIMES" :lmao

Hammer vs James was good times as Shane Douglas bastard son continues to get better each week in ring and on the mic, and James is solid as hell.

I was dying at Hammer and Richard's promos, they play off each SO well and show that once MJF fucks off for good, they'll be more than fine without him.

Kelly's debut was great, and i love that Court is going to allow her to feed off all the hate she got for the tampon spot. She'll bring eyes to the company.

Filthy's slow decent into madness and eventual heel turn is coming along perfectly, dude is just wonderful in every aspect.

CONTRA's promo was stellar as always! These boys can do no wrong, and we are blessed to have them.

MLW is the best company in the world and anyone saying otherwise should be kidnapped by Ol Mancer, because he has some experience in that :banderas
 
Forgot to post the other day that I watched the PPV last week, the day after I finally got to see Full Gear and tbh I liked it more than AEW's effort.

Brien-Vega: *1/2
Medina-Wolf: *3/4
Hijo de LA Park-Zenshi: **3/4
Contra Unit-Garrini/James-Spirit Squad: **1/2
Von Erichs-Dynasty: ***
Injustice-Loco/King/Dragon: ***1/2
Hart-Aries: ***1/2
Low Ki/Pillman: **1/2
Lawlor/Thatcher: ***3/4
Warner/Havoc/Bestia: ***1/2
Hammerstone/Davey Boy: ***
Fatu/Park: ****

Hopefully MLW can keep growing and remain a stable option for wrestlers. With a women's division on the way, talent being signed to multi-year deals, and them breaking into the PPV market now, the future seems bright.
 
I just watched the last episode.

I felt like they had a neat idea with the Mance/Havoc Falls Count Anywhere match, but it was executed poorly.

Why were all the weapons and thumbtacks still in the ring when they got back to the arena? Wasn't that shit all cleaned up for the other matches?

Although, points for a car jacking taking place during a match, lol.
