So far, Major League Wrestling’s return to Queens, New York at the Melrose Ballroom for its next set of Fusion tapings on October 4th is shaping up nicely.

To date, we’ve seen a couple of big matches announced for the show with Jimmy Havoc facing Sami Callihan in a Spin The Wheel Make The Deal match, LA Park going one-on-one with PCO and The Hart Foundation meeting ACH, Rich Swann and Marko Stunt. Today, another big match has been made official by MLW when Tom Lawlor squares off with Shane Strickland:

WHO IS THE ACE OF MLW? SHANE STRICKLAND AND “FILTHY” TOM LAWLOR FIGHT TO FIND OUT WHO THE FRANCHISE OF MLW IS ON OCTOBER 4TH IN NYC 

Who is the ace of MLW? 

Who is the franchise of Major League Wrestling?

Since the return of Major League Wrestling nearly a year ago, two men have been at the epicenter of the league’s resurgence. October 4th at Melrose Ballroom in Queens, NY we will find out who truly is the ace of Major League Wrestling as Shane “Swerve” Strickland vs. “Filthy” Tom Lawlor is signed for MLW FURY ROAD: an MLW Fusion TV taping. Tickets start at just $20 at www.MLWtickets.com

Strickland has been lauded by the media MLW’s ace since MLW One-Shot and while “Filthy” Tom Lawlor has padded his resume over the past year with several high profile wins including outlasting 39 other wrestlers to win the Battle Riot and a future world title shot any time, anywhere.  

League officials see both Strickland and Lawlor as franchise material but only one can be the ace.  Will it be the former World Champion Strickland?  Will it be elite UFC crossover fighter “Filthy” Lawlor? Find out October 4th.

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.
