Published

on

MLW Fusion

Major League Wrestling’s return to the Melrose Ballroom in Queens, New York for its next set of Fusion television tapings is now less than a week away on October 4th. The show is already stacked with some anticipated matches including a Spin The Wheel Make The Deal match, PCO vs. LA Park, plus Daga will challenge Low Ki for the MLW World Heavyweight Championship.

Now on top of that, MLW has announced that two tag teams will be making their MLW debuts at the event as The Smash N Dash Connection takes on a new version of The Samoan Island Tribe:

The Smash N Dash Connection make tag team debut as Barrington Hughes & Kotto Brazil team-up against the Samoan Island Tribe next Thursday at MLW’s NYC TV tapings

NEW YORK – Major League Wrestling’s tag team division continues to heat up with the formation of the Smash N Dash Connection’s Barrington Hughes and Kotto Brazil as well as the return of a new version of the Samoan Island Tribe.  The two teams will square off next Thursday at MLW FURY ROAD: an MLW Fusion TV taping. Tickets start at just $20 at www.MLWtickets.com

The newly formed Smash N Dash Connection look to send shockwaves through the stacked tag team division, using a combination of size, speed and heart.  But they will be facing a big challenge in one of the sport’s greatest wrestling families, the Anoa’is.  

Tag team specialists, the Samoan Island Tribe date back to 2003 in MLW and have featured the likes of Samu, Mana and Eki “Umaga” Fatu.  The 2018 version features the father and son duo of Samu and Lance Anoa’i. 

The “Haitian Sensation” and the “Caramel Colossus” face a BIG challenge in the Samoan Island Tribe. For over 50 years, the Anoa’i family has collected more tag team championships than any other family in the sport.

Will the Smash N Dash Connection demonstrate the critical chemistry needed to triumph over the father and son duo?  Find out live next Thursday in Queens! Tickets are on sale now at www.MLWTickets.com

Tickets start at $20 for this MLW FUSION taping. [Buy tickets]

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition

Published

on

TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.

The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American

Published

on

Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.

He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
