MLW's Battle Riot 3 is tomorrow night. It's a 40-Man Royal Rumble where pinfalls count.

For some reason I had this match in my recommendations today, decided to give MLW a shot and now I gotta ask: Is the product always that bad, or was it because it was a battle royal? So many missed spots by the camera, people blatantly waiting and getting themselves into position, an excessive amount of weapons used, multiple people entering the ring under different gimmicks. Plus the entirely pointless entry by 'Kim Chee', whoever that was.

Not gonna say that everything was bad, there certainly a few people I had not seen before that I was pretty impressed by (mainly Alex Hart and Zenshi), but the whole thing felt very badly produced.

Also, when did Hammerstone turn into such a blatant Hogan copy?

Probably also hasn't helped that 'his' return promo from many moons ago doesn't to be around anymore as a worthy introduction for new fans.

Pretty sure it's not even the 1st attempt

Probably the 3rd or 4th attempt at this point. There was a 10th anniversary show in 2008 that was run by the guys behind WSX that was only a one-off, and a couple of years later someone also randomly ran an XPW-titled show in Mexico. Aside from those actual events Black has talked plenty of times about all the great plans he had for a restart, but none ever came to fruition until this year's show.

casting a wide net to catch as many chuds and future chuds as possible.

Honestly wouldn't surprise me if Brian Cage ends up at one the shows. Granted I don't know when his AEW contract is up, but he'll definitely feel right at home with other right-wing anti-vaxxers that have no problem shoving steroid needles up their asses.

The SAT are still on the go? That's a surprise

I think they actually only started wrestling as a team again in December last year, after being mostly inactive for a decade.

I know we say this for every PWG show but god drat you, Super Dragon for insisting on no-streaming. This card is ridiculous:

Card looks awesome, can't wait to watch the show early next year or whenever.

Also given recent storyline development in AEW, how likely is it that the Bucks make a surprise appearance to challenge the winner of HOB vs UE? Would fit given their PWG history, and how they currently 'only' have one pair of titles vs FTR's 3.

Not sure if AAA bringing back the Triplemania 2015 experience solely for Vikingo fans in the US is gonna work, but it is an interesting approach.

Surprised to see Famous B on the card, thought he had retired a couple of years ago, not to mention he barely ever wrestled outside of SoCal to begin with.

Four people, 3 of which are signed to BBT's companies. Gets Ronda ever so much closer to AEW, and since sex offenders are now fair game for him, signing a Sandy Hook truther would probably make no difference any more.

Don't know whether lolcourt or lolkonnan

Let's be real, it's lolboth. Even if MLW did their part right and AAA hosed up, Arez and Aramis are guaranteed to have contacted MLW since May, and at that point someone should have gone "poo poo, looks like AAA didn't get our memo, better clear this up soon."

Does Double-J still own the rights to GFW, or did he sell/lose those?

You know you're too tired from work when you read this and think "I thought Daniels that he was never going to the Curry Man gimmick again", before looking at the picture, re-reading the text and realising "Oh wait, it's Daniels VS Curry Man".

Chris Hero's Pro Wres Mixtape is streaming on YouTube if you want to watch Bryan Keith vs Mecha Mummy.

You know a show is gonna be good when basically the first thing Hero does is go to the back to put on his shirt from the Punk tape. Opening 6-man is pretty fun already, gonna watch the rest after work.

If time has been so unkind to give Raven PCO's face, then I don't want to see what it did to his body and athleticism :stonk:

Don't worry, he is still in top shape and totally doesn't look like a guy who ran away from his senior residence and is confused about where he ended up:
