MLW News: LA Park Added To MLW’s WarGames Event, Updated List

MLW

We’re just over a month away now from Major League Wrestling’s WarGames event on September 6th in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and the list of participants continues to grow today as MLW has revealed the legendary LA Park will be taking part in the event. Below is MLW’s official announcement, including the updated list of confirmed competitors for the show:

LA PARK RETUNS TO MLW SEPTEMBER 6 IN FORT LAURDERDALE AT MLW FUSION beIN SPORTS TV TAPING 

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – One of the most iconic luchadores in the sport is returning to Major League Wrestling (“MLW”) September 6th. MLW today announced LA Park will make his return at MLW’s September 6th MLW WAR GAMES® event at the War Memorial Auditorium where he will compete in an undisclosed singles match.  

The super card will also feature a FUSION TV taping for beIN SPORTS.  

Ticket start at just $10. You can purchase tickets now at MLWgo.com.

Donning the iconic skeleton mask, this rudo is virtually unstoppable. Swinging a chair, which he has wrapped around countless opponents, LA Park is unpredictable which makes “The Chairman” an encounter most desperately try to avoid.

“This is a guy fans have been asking me to bring back since we announced One-Shot,” said MLW founder/CEO Court Bauer.  “He’s had a banner year in Mexico and I expect fans are in for a treat when he steps foot in an MLW ring in South Florida.  Just wait until you see who he will face. This is a main event match in the making.”

Bauer refused to elaborate on details pertaining to LA Park’s September 6 opponent. LA Park is also signed for MLW’s October 4th return to New York City.

No stranger to MLW, LA Park competed in the 2002 World Heavyweight Title Tournament as well as having one of the most talked about rivalries in the league’s history with his battles with Sabu from 2002 to 2003.  

Since then, the man known originally as La Parka in WCW and AAA has continued his wickedness south of the border where he has ascended to legendary status with his wild, chaotic brawls main eventing arenas across Mexico. 

Wrestlers signed for the WAR GAMES® super card include:

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION LOW KI

WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS PENTAGON JR. & REY FENIX

WORLD MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION MAXWELL J. FRIEDMAN
“FILTHY” TOM LAWLOR

Mitchell’s AEW Continental Classic Update! (11/27/23)

What a start to the tournament!

Published

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

  • Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
  • Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
  • Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
  • Rush: 0-1, 0 points
  • Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
  • Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

 

Here are your Blue League standings!

  • Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
  • Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
  • Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
  • Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
  • Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
  • Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

 

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
