MLW Blood and Thunder

Held on Saturday, Week 4, 2021
in Noroccidente, Mexico
 

Announce Team: Konnan, Famous B, Rich Bocchini and Jared Saint Laurent

   

The show starts with a video package promoting the alliance between The CRASH Lucha Libre and Major League Wrestling. The supershow event in Mexico will be an annual tradition for MLW from now on, an executive decision made by the one and only Cesar Duran.

After the video recap Konnan comes out to hype up the crowd and promote his clients 5150, as well as the team of rudos that will be taking part in the opening contest.  Arez, Juventud Guerrera, Psicosis and former CRASH tag team champions… Los Traumas
 

Cesar Duran steps out of his office next and says that’s a good pick by CRASH, but his guys are simply better. They are Aramis, Laredo Kid, Samuray del Sol and two quite literally ‘out of this world’ luchadors… Aerostar and Drago!!

The fans get up on their feet as ‘The Spaceman’ shoots fire from the aerosol spray and Drago shows off his tongue and wings. The crowd is hot and chanting ‘lucha’! RING THE BELL!!!

    Aerostar, Samuray del Sol, Aramis, Laredo Kid, Drago
vs.
Trauma I, Juventud Guerrera, Arez, Psicosis, Trauma II

Quote

A multi-man lucha libre match to open the supershow in Mexico is always a good idea!
 

 The fans are buzzing for all the high flying and death defying maneuvers performed by some of the most daring and fearless athletes in MLW. The action doesn’t stop for a second and we essentially get a highlight reel of a fight. The high spots of the match involve Aerostar wiping out the entire deck with a Trust Fall Splash, Laredo hitting a crazy Laredo Fly on Juvi, and Psicosis missing his patented Psycho Senton to the outside! 
 

The star man of this match was undoubtedly Aerostar, but it was Aramis who got his team a victory by pinning Arez after La Desnucadora del Mosquetero!

Fan favorites celebrate together and get an ovation from the ‘renegades’, some of which throw money into the ring! Cesar must be happy that his guys picked up a win for MLW… 
 

Team MLW def. Team CRASH in 12:38 by pinfall when Aramis defeated Arez with La Desnucadora del Mosquetero. [51/100]


Konnan is angry though, especially given that Aramis, the luchador who did not want to be mentored by him, got the victory. The winners will also likely get the title shots against the eventual Azteca Underground Trios champions, whether it will be 5150 or Los Parks.
 

Next we get to see Calvin Tankman and Myron Reed pumping each other up backstage. Big night for both men, and the pressure to deliver the results is real. On the other side of the building AR Fox is giving directions to his protege Alex Kane. Something’s got to give tonight!
 

Our next match is the first champion versus champion bout! Chik Tormenta will square off with ‘The Supernova from Moldova’ Marina Shafir. Tormenta is getting a better reaction upon her arrival, while Marina power walks to the ring with a stone cold killer look on her face.

    Marina Shafir vs. Chik Tormenta 

Quote

Well, this was ugly. Marina and Chik engage in a rough initial exchange, with Shafir throwing some nasty knees and elbows at Tormenta. Chik’s mouth gets bloody after one of the kicks, and the match goes completely off the rails. Referee tries to interfere, but gets pushed away. Shafir then locks Tormenta in a Cross Armbreaker to get a decisive victory in a short match.
 

Marina Shafir def. Chik Tormenta in 03:48 by submission with a Cross Armbreaker. [14/100]


Marina did not break the submission hold immediately too, and the fans hated that with passion! The MLW Women’s champion leaves the arena to a chorus of boos, and it would be smart of her to get out of the country as soon as possible, for her own safety. 


Backstage, Matt Cross and Angelico meet up with Ivelisse, trying to give her advice ahead of her ‘Three-Way To The Grave’ match against King Muertes and Savio Vega. ‘La Sicaria’ shuts them down, as she’s no stranger to winning Triple Threat matches. Like the one where she beat both of them at the same time! That time she also got a title shot against Muertes. 
 

She will take her rematch against ‘The Man of 1000 Deaths’ tonight, and Angelico and Matt Cross should really mind their own business, they have a match against La Rebellion Amarilla. Ivelisse burns the last few bridges she had, but she doesn’t seem to care. Cross and Angelico shrug their shoulders and wish her good luck as she goes away. Their match is up next…
 

Cross and Angelico don’t get the chance to make their entrance, as La Rebellion Amarilla wastes no time to attack them from behind! This gives rudos the early advantage.

Angelico and Matt Cross vs. Bestia 666 and Mechawolf ©

Quote

La Rebellion Amarilla have tagged together for some time now, but Cross and Angelico also have history together, plus some great chemistry to make it a pretty even match! Mechawolf workz the initial portions of the match, tussling it out with the perennial underdog Matt Cross. We get to see a lot of flashy moves from all four, this is an open match. 
 

Eventually Bestia and Angelico fight each other, getting much louder reactions. "The South African Heartthrob" goes for the symbolic ‘Fall of The Angels’ move on Bestia, but the evil doer wriggles out and strikes the tall guy with a Superkick to the gut, followed by a Package Piledriver! Cross breaks up the cover and then Angelico catches Bestia with a Pele Kick, setting up a Shooting Star Press for Cross!! Tag made, Matt takes his time on the top rope, but gets distracted by the man in the hood that emerges from the tunnel… Damian 666

Mechawolf uses the distraction to hit Angelico with a Slingshot Tornado DDT on the floor, and Bestia hits Cross with La Valagueza!

 

‘The Son of the Demon’ covers Matt Cross, looking dead into the eyes of his father. Victory for La Rebellion Amarilla!
 

La Rebellion Amarilla def. Matt Cross and Angelico in 09:12 by pinfall with La Valagueza. [43/100]


CRASH Lucha Libre picks up a much needed victory to make the score 2-1. Cesar will be angry at Angelico and Cross, no more handouts to them, one would assume.

El Jefe is in the office, checking out the MLW National Openweight championship. If Alexander Hammerstone kept this beautiful title to himself, AR Fox and Alex Kane would not steal it in the first place. Duran faces the camera and says that Fox is banned from ringside for the next bout, and if he puts his nose in that fight - Calvin Tankman will get the title.
 

Following that tricky stipulation, ‘The Suplex Assassin’ Alex Kane makes his entrance all alone. Calvin Tankman is accompanied by Myron Reed, but ‘The Heavyweight Hustle’ sends the Middleweight champ to the back, since Fox will not be around. It is gonna be mano e mano business!

    Calvin Tankman vs. Alex Kane

Quote

These two men have faced each other at Fusion #144, and back then Kane got the victory following a sneaky belt shot to the face of Tankman! The title is not at ringside for now.
 

The match is slow and methodical, we have two big guys - it is a striking contrast to the match that opened the show. Local fans really do not like Alex Kane, who lashes back at them and uses his amateur wrestling background to try and put Calvin on the ground. Tank uses his elbows to fight back and smacks the mouthguard of Alex’ mouth with a Backfist! Then he sends Kane flying to the outside with a massive Pounce! Calvin follows his opponent and loses his focus for just one second before getting rammed into the ring post a few times! 
 

Alex won’t get the title via count out though, so he uses a lot of energy to get Tank back into the ring… Kane starts screaming ‘BOMAYE’ and tries to Deadlift German the 354 pound man! He goes halfway, but Tankman surprises everyone with a Jumping Enzughiri that dazes Kane… Tankman Driver!! Cover… one, two, three!!
 

Calvin Tankman is the new MLW National Openweight champion! Huge victory for the big man!

Cesar Duran presents Calvin with the title and says ‘that’s what you get for crossing El Jefe’ to Alex Kane. Taknman gets his first taste of gold in MLW and tells his daughter watching at home that daddy comes home as champion! Tankman is joined by Myron Reed, who is happy that one of his friends won the title. What would AR Fox think about this?

 

Going next is a “Three Way To The Grave” match! Savio Vega tapes his fists and prepares his kendo stick for what could be his last ever match. ‘Mr. TNT’ is not afraid of going into this match - he chooses death before dishonor of his IWA Caribbean title, and if he needs to risk everything to get that championship where it belongs, he’ll do it papi! 

Uu6tA8Y.gif

 

In the underbelly of the building, King Muertes is holding the mysterious parcel, breathing heavily over it. He opens it and his pupils get smaller from the light that comes from the little wooden box. What’s inside? Muertes gets the item, which looks like one of the seven Aztec medallions… He clutches it in his hand and a mysterious shadow appears behind him.

 

Could that be Marty The Moth? Or maybe it is Melissa Martinez? So many questions, so little answers. The ringside is now ready for the ‘Three-Way To The Grave’ match!

 

Before we can start, Salina de la Renta joins the commentary, forcing Rich Bocchini out of his seat. Low Ki can be seen in the upper section of the arena, holding the IWA Caribbean title.

Three-Way To The Grave Match

    Savio Vega vs. King Muertes vs. Ivelisse

Quote

This is it. Two fighters from this match will never be seen in MLW again. There are two coffins waiting for losers on the outside. The winner will go on to challenge Low Ki for the title!
 

Vega and Muertes get into a fist fight, with Ivelisse ducking the brutes and picking her shots. She’s smart and fast, opting to land a few kicks and get away from the harm’s way. Savio smartens up to this tactic and catches one of Ivelisse’s kicks, but he’s having some troubles hitting a girl. No such problem for Muertes, who decks Ivelisse with a straight right hand!

 

Call Hugo Savinovich, because this is… BRUTAL, BRUTAL, BRUTAL!

 

Savio and Muertes resume their fight, picking up some weapons along the way. Muertes gets a few stiff kendo stick lashes to the back, but responds with a hellacious chairshot to Vega’s head. With both opponents dazed and wobbly, Muertes picks up a casket and shoves it into the ring. Muertes tries to Chokeslam Ivelisse into an open casket, but she bites and fights!

PmNmQCv.gif

 

But Muertes is just too strong for ‘La Sicaria’! Vega comes back into the match after hitting Muertes with a trash can. Savio riles up the crowd and lands a Caribbean Kick to send Muertes falling into the open coffin! He can't close the lid though, as Muertes is too strong! Ivelisse tries to help, but she’s again brushed aside!

 

Muertes claws Savio in the eyes and hits him with a Flatliner, before pushing him into the casket.

 

Savio Vega has been eliminated…’ - somberly announces Melissa Santos.

 

The druids pick up the casket and carry Savio away. Ivelisse desperately tries to hurt Muertes, but he doesn’t feel a thing! He lays out Ivelisse with a Chokeslam and looks to put her in the casket… But here comes Marty The Moth!  He has a hammer in his hand - he wants revenge! He is unsuccessful though, as Muertes powerbombs him on the casket!

 

But he misses a Low Blow from Ivelisse! This is her big chance! Ivelisse hits Muertes with a Tornado DDT and looks to push him into the casket standing on the outside.

 

‘La Sicaria’ goes over to open it up…

CATRINA IS INSIDE!
 

The ghost from Ivelisse’s past rises from the dead, with Piedra Immortal hanging around her neck! Ivelisse, Salina, and even Melissa Santos are in shock, but Muertes is not. He chokeslams Ivelisse into the casket, and Catrina slams the lid shut! The winner of the match and Low Ki’s challenger at Superfight Showdown - King Muertes!!

Held on Saturday, Week 4, 2021

in Noroccidente, Mexico

     

    Announce Team: Konnan, Famous B, Rich Bocchini and Jared Saint Laurent

 

As the caskets with Savio Vega and Ivelisse are rolled down the corridor, Cesar approaches Alexander Hammerstone, who’s lifting some serious weight backstage. Duran interrupts the work out and tells Hammer to put his headphones away and listen to him…

 

MRSia_I33yCPc17y-Q5I0pA6zlQO7FoGcsyzj9TIeBPhk_xRu3MKkjCGiVU2Z6UVzLs_oS0dQH34d-Fl

 

Cesar: So, the match will finish in a draw. A lot of very important people put big money on that outcome, so don’t let me and them down… are we clear?

 

Alex: Woah-woah-woah, what are you talking about? Are you really asking me to intentionally go for a draw against Bandido?

 

Cesar: I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. Ordering you! CRASH will be happy, I’ll be happy, and you will get a bonus. Don’t be a fool, Hammerstone…

 

Alex: You know what… put your bets and shove them up your ass, boss. I’m not selling my integrity for a few quick bucks. I’m the MLW World heavyweight champion, and I’m damn proud of it. I recommend you put all the chips on me, because Bandido is getting covered, 1-2-3. As one dude once said... that doesn't work for me, El Jefe.

Hammerstone shoves Duran away and storms off. The boss looks anxious, but he goes on his phone to make a quick call. The cameraman gets to hear about some ‘Plan B’ before running away from his hiding place. Emilio Sparks is willing to put his neck on the line for some scoops!

 

Time to get back to wrestling, a super showdown between two elite cruiserweights…

    Demonic Flamita vs. Myron Reed

Quote

To open up the second part of the pay-per-view we get a battle between Flamita and Myron Reed. Who else can ‘warm up the crowd’ better than ‘Hot Fire’ and ‘The Fireball’?

 

Both guys start off rather cautiously, but as the match progresses, we start to see a lot of usual offense from the champions. Reed looks good to start the bout, hitting Flamita with a Matrix Enzughiri followed by a Tope Con Hilo to the outside! He misses a Springboard Leg Drop on his return though and Flamita kicks him in the chest protector, setting up a Standing Moonsault for a close near fall. Demonic luchador starts playing dirty, clawing the eyes of ‘The Young G.O.A.T.’... 

 

Flamita looks to set up a Tiger Driver Backbreaker, but eats a Stunner for his troubles. Reed goes on the top rope once again, but Flamita bounces back and hits a Spanish Fly! One, two… kick out! Great match so far! AR Fox peeks from the curtain and starts walking around the ring. This distracts his protege, and Flamita dropkicks Reed out of the ring! 

 

Springboard Tornillo Plancha catches both Myron and Fox! Flamita throws Reed back into the ring, this is a great chance for The CRASH Cruiserweight champion to get the victory. Phoenix Splash!! One… two… AR FOX PULLS THE REF OUT OF THE RING! Did he just save Myron? Flamita thinks so, loses his mind, and hurls verbal abuse at Fox on the apron.

 

Ref now bans the intruder while MYRON REED CATCHES FLAMITA WITH A SKYWALKER!

 

A cutter to the outside could be enough to pin Flamita, and yet Reed decides to go for a No Cap Splash to make sure the shoulders of his opponent stay pinned to the mat! 

 

Myron Reed def. Demonic Flamita in 11:26 by pinfall with a No Cap Splash. [42/100]

 

Tough outing for Myron, and you have to wonder if the title would stay around his waist if it wasn’t for AR Fox. Flamita hits the mats in frustration, and Reed says that was some BS, and he will happily give him another chance at the title… Before we can see if Flamita accepted the handshake, a familiar CONTRA graphic interrupts the broadcast.

"Jacob Fatu… a headstrong imbecile, that’s who you are. All you had to do is apologize to your brothers and arms, but your pride is out of control… You are not a leader, you never were!! I, Josef Samael, is the mastermind of this cabal, and tonight we are going to make you pay for your sins, Jacob. ‘The Samoan Werewolf’ is about to get stabbed with a silver knife!
All because you chose not to… HAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIL COOOOOOOOOONTRAAAAAAA!!!
"

 

Up next is the battle of the heavyweights - Jacob Fatu and Mads Krugger! They were never friends, but co-existed to rule over MLW as part of CONTRA. Now though, ‘The Samoan Werewolf’ is on the loose, having broken off the cuffs of the gang back at War Chamber.

 

Fatu makes his entrance first, sporting a pair of leopard-printed pants. His presentation as a whole gets more Samoan flavor… Krugger doesn’t change anything in his appearance though, and slowly makes his way to the ring with Josef Samael and a few Sentai Death Squad soldiers.

    Mads Krugger (w/CONTRA) vs. Jacob Fatu

Quote

Fatu starts a match by hitting Krugger and co with a Twisting Moonsault to the outside!!

 

Jacob ragdolls the advancing soldiers of the black and yellow faction, but gets shoved into the stairs by Mads, flipping over them like Cactus Jack. Krugger picks the steps to launch them into Fatu, but he gets hit with a Superkick, dropping them on himself! Jacob Fatu has those crazy eyes and signals for a Splash! Short run up on the apron…

 

Krugger avoids contact and ‘The Samoan Werewolf’ crashes and burns! 

 

‘The Black Hand of CONTRA’ looks for weapons under the ring and gets a steel chair, throwing it hard into Fatu’s head! The samoan skull is thick, so no cuts there yet… Mads picks up a screwdriver from the toolbox, and only Jacob’s inhuman reflexes help him get out of harm's way! Fatu slams Krugger with a Samoan Drop and looks to get flying again, preparing for a Triple Moonsault. Josef Samael jumps on the apron to buy his monster some time, and make Fatu lose his balance! Instead, Jacob changes his direction and hits Sentai Death Squad soldiers with a Cannonball to the outside! Fatu is a freak of nature! He picks up the discarded chair and slams it hard into Krugger’s covered face a few times, but no claret is drawn…

 

 image.gif

 

He goes after the mask, and attempts a Handspring Moonsault, but Mads catches him by the throat. CHOKESLAM BACKBREAKER! Josef Samael is calling over his troops and orders them to dismantle the ring, so Fatu wouldn’t be able to hit his aerial maneuvers! Kruger is choking the samoan while the top rope is being removed, and looks over the hook, thinking about using it to end the match. Fatu ducks the swing and catches Mads with a Spinning Wheel Kick! He grabs the hook himself and signals the end… but Josef Samael throws salt in the eyes of the werewolf! Blinded beast is swearing so loudly, Krugger shakes off the cobwebs and wraps the third rope around Jacob’s neck!!

 

Ex-world champion is trapped, and ‘The Black Hand of CONTRA’ applies enough pressure to make Fatu bleed from his mouth!

 

Mads Krugger def. Jacob Fatu in 08:16 by making Fatu bleed from the mouth following a rope-assisted choke. [22/100]

 

An unexpected result, to say the least, some fans are not happy with what they have seen. CONTRA swarms the ring and covers Fatu‘s body with a black and yellow flag… Samael is smirking like a Cheshire Cat and tells all the infidels in the attendance to… HAAAAAIIIIIL CONTRAAAAAA!!!

Backstage, L.A. Park is giving his sons a pep talk. He warns them about Konnan, who can strike at any minute… Papa Park spots a guy filming his speech and calls that poor pendejo over.

phMVd90Czf5cqQqAOJXSfdjhuXmYhpCfGvzjeCBz

"Ay, stop filming my trasero and point the camera at my masculine profile! ‘The Chairman’ is in a foul mood, and when that is the case, I grab my amigo and start blasting everyone! La Familia Real is at home, we’re holding the gold, and after we’re done beating you like a drum, Konnan will run away to US with a tail tucked between his cheeks, jajajaja!

 

Interview over, and here come the challengers. The always braggadocious and obnoxious Danny Rivera and Slice Boogie are tagging along with ‘187’ Homicide, who covers his face with a bandana. Doctor Julius Smokes insults the fans and barks at the announcers for some reason, then steals the headset from Famous B and yells that tonight 5150 will become Trios champs, and beat the skeleton’s monkey asses! Konnan fist bumps the hype man and talks some trash before Parks make their entrance.

 

They’re very popular here, but spend no time sweet talking the fans…

    Los Parks (c) vs. 5150 (w/Konnan)

Quote

As you would expect from these six wild men, this is a bonafide slobberknocker! It didn’t take a long time for the skeletons to pick up their signature weapons and play ‘music chairs’ with 5150. Only difference is, gangsters didn’t slam their butt in the chairs, but chairs got slammed into their culeros!!

 

The brawl naturally spilled out into the bleachers and the backstage area. L.A. Park smacked Homicide with a chair, later putting him on a merch table. He commanded that his younger son take ‘187’ out with a Balcony Splash, and that’s exactly what the skeleton did!! New Jack would be proud! L.A. Park picks up his own shirt and tells fanss to buy his merch!

 

Konnan leaves his seat and passes Danny Rivera a baseball bat to put the patriarch of the family to rest! Rivera goes to work, and he has a great swing, knocking L.A. Park out of the ring! El Hijo de L.A. Park flies into the ring and does very well, but gets too distracted with his taunts, and Boogie immediately drives him through a cornered table with a Spear!

 

image.gif
 

Now Rivera and Boogie hold the big Mexican for Konnan, who gets in the ring with brass knuckles - he wants to rough up Park himself now! 

 

It is a three-on-one situation, but somehow Park powers out and spears Konnan in the middle of the ring! Homicide stumbles back to the ring and he now has a fork in his hand… the maniac wants to stab L.A. Park, jumping on his back! He’s the master of ‘prison shower’ style! Slice and Rivera stomp the living legend to help and rip his mask open for Homicide to draw some juice… Time to wrap this up? 5150 set up a Headcraker, but the revived El Hijo de L.A. Park saves his padre, shoving Rivera down and onto the barking Dr. Julius Smokes!

 

Hijo hits Boogie with La Parkinator for two, but the cover is broken up by Homicide… GRINGO KILLA! Will this be enough to win the titles for LAX?? One... Two... L.A Park Jr pulls the ref away to stop the count and keep the gold in the family!! L.A. Park is back on his feet and he goes on a steel chair rampage, taking out every 5150 guy in sight!

 

Park unleashes hell on Homicide and pins him after a Sunset Flip Powerbomb! What a war!

 

Los Parks def. 5150 in 14:38 by pinfall when L.A. Park defeated Homicide with a Sunset Flip Powerbomb. Los Parks make defense number 2 of their Azteca Underground Trios championships. [49/100]

 

Perhaps for the first time in months L.A. Park praises his sons and embraces them as he should! They showed a lot of heart in this battle, and proved that this unit is holding on the bones of three men, not just L.A. Park! Hammerstone paces back and forth in his locker room, clearly bothered that Cesar Duran wanted to stick him in his dirty ploys.

 

Alex’s phone is ringing, and the champ picks it up. A last minute encouragement from his best friend Richard Holliday?

 

eBPhk_xRu3MKkjCGiVU2Z6UVzLs_oS0dQH34d-Fl

 

"Yeah Holliday, this is not the best time to talk… Man, my match is like in five minutes, I have no time to FaceTime you, bro… What?.. No-no-no, you can’t be serious… YOU BET ON THE DRAW TOO?? WHAT THE H--- NO! I will not do as Cesar tells me, I don’t care. Some things are worth more than money, Holliday. And for the record, I’m very disappointed in you, bro…"

 

Hammer drops the call and at the same time Cesar Duran steps out of the corridor to ask his renegades if they are enjoying the show? People roar in approval, ‘El Jefe’ knows how to please them. Now he tells them to pipe down, because he has some unfinished business with Texano. That idiot had the boldness to hit ‘El Jefe’ with his dirty hands and leave a shiner on his beautiful face… and to make his position worse, he refused to apologize. Well time for games is over! Duran calls out Texano to face him in a match!!

 

Erm… what? Cesar unbuttons his suit and rolls up his sleeves. Is he serious about it?? Texano comes out with a smirk on his face, his frame is wider than two Cesars!

 

He will not miss this chance to kick the piss out of the boss, no way. Duran tells to ring the bell, it is time for Texano’s funeral…

    Texano vs. Cesar Duran

Quote

‘The Blue Collar Brawler’ is not taking the boss seriously, and offers him a test of strength…

 

Duran decides to go for the eye poke, but ends up in a tight Headlock, ready to quit any second! The boss yells for help, screaming to ‘UNLEASH THE BULL!!’

 

image.gif

 

And lo and behold, a minotaur-like creature crashes into the ring and hits Texano with a Discus Lariat!! Black Taurus is in MLW, and he stomps Texano into the mat! Duran spits in Texano’s face, leaving ‘The Black Bull’ to deal with the defiant blue collar worker. 

 

Taurus Driver!! The beast lays out the cowboy and lets ‘El Jefe’ put a foot on Texano’s chest for a cocky pin for the win… Do not cross the boss!

 

Cesar Duran def. Texano in 03:19 by pinfall after Black Taurus interfered. [36/100]

 

The camera zooms in on the muzzle of Black Taurus, looks like he will be the new beast represented by the boss.

 

In the back, Flamita is distressed about his loss earlier tonight, and tries to avoid Bandido, who cockily carries three belts on his waist. Bandido slaps Flamita on the back and tells him to watch the next match if he wants to learn a thing about victories… Flamita is pissed, and thinks about attacking his tag partner from the back, but controls his temper and walks away.

 

It’s main event time, and the stage is set for the showdown of international proportions! Three version champion Bandido makes his entrance first, the man is literally covered in gold. His poncho and sombrero fly off into the crowd, fans scream for ‘The Most Wanted’ in adoration. He’s a star in here, and undoubtedly the fan favorite!

 

And here comes Alexander Hammerstone, ‘The Muscle Mountain’! The MLW world champion is laser focused on his match, but you have to wonder if his conflict with Duran will play a role in this fight. Hammer is dealing with a somewhat hostile fan in the front row, but acts as a professional and enters the ring without touching a single soul. Let’s wrestle!

Both men are introduced with fanfare and ballyhoo, the time has come…

    Alexander Hammerstone vs. Bandido

Quote

Hammer offers Bandido a test of strength, and the lucha sensation accepts the challenge before kicking Hammer in the ribs. He won’t shy away from dirty tricks in this match!

 

Headlock is almost reversed with a Backdrop Suplex, but Bandido moves his hips and takes Alex down on the ground. The struggle continues, and after a bit of a stalemate Bandido ducks Hammer’s lariat with a backflip and playfully stands on his head, teasing the bigger man.

 

Bandido wants Alex to know that his grappling skills are superior, that he is faster, and perhaps smarter too… Nobody will argue that Hammerstone is a stronger guy, able to Military Press Slam his opponent out of the ring! Hammer teases a Big Beefy Drop, but Bandido catches him with a kick to the head, followed by a Springboard Tornillo Splash! Alex rolls over and picks Bandido up for a Twisting Uranage Slam for two! Powerbomb incoming? No, Bandido reverses with a Hurricanrana! BANDIDO SPECIAL CONNECTS!!

 

Two men are now fighting on the outside, and this is a battle that Alex wins with ease. He is much more of a brawler than Bandido, and he rams the luchador into the ring post before returning in the driver’s seat. Hammer goes on the top rope, looking to strike Bandido with his patented Missile Dropkick… Bandido jumps to the top and tries to hit a Revolution Fly, but Hammer fights off! This is when Bandido shoves the ref into the ropes, causing Alex to spill to the outside! ASAI MOONSAULT! He's on fire!


image.gif

 

Throws Alex back in the ring, goes for the Phoenix Splash and hits nothing but the mat!  Hammer moves out of the way at the last moment, and now he signals for The Nightmare Pendulum, his finishing maneuver… Bandido reverses it into a Hangman Neckbreaker! Great counter, and the fans get up on their feet as ‘The Most Wanted’ motions shooting Alex in the back of the head. 21 PLEX!! The CRASH champion is seconds away from finishing the match, but Hammerstone kicks out and HULKS UP, BROTHER!

 

He doesn’t feel any pain, he is full of energy, he’s jacked and ready to finish this match… with a Burning Hammer? No, Bandido slips out and hits back with a Superkick, sending Alex into the corner. Now Bandido wants to end this, prepping Hammer for a Revolution Fly! The struggle on the top rope has everyone on the edge of the seat, until Hammerstone showcases his inhuman strength, picking Bandido up for a NIGHTMARE PENDULUM FROM THE TOP!!! 

 

Hammerstone balances on the top until a man in a hood jumps the barricades and shoves both guys down to the floor!! He puts the ref in the corner and tells him to count… the official refuses to end this interpromotional battle in a double count out, so the mystery man lays him out with a Lariat! The hood comes off and we see a deranged man with clown face paint!

image.jpeg

THAT’S PAGANO

 

The extremist finds the chair under the ring and smacks both men in the head so hard that they’re not beating a 20 count. The fans are throwing trash at Pagano, who greets the renegades with two middle fingers. Duran grabs the mic from Melissa Santos and announces that the match ends in a draw! 

 

Alex Hammerstone and Bandido ended the match in a draw in 20:19 following an interference by Pagano. [55/100]

 

He’s showered in ‘culero’ chants, and as fans are starting a riot, a dozen of Duran’s lackeys grab the unconscious body of Hammerstone, and carry him to the back. Another abduction?

The show ends with Duran giving Pagano a wad of cash… Good night, everybody!

MLW World Heavyweight Champion Abducted In Tijuana!

 

The main event of Blood and Thunder supershow was marred in controversy, as the match got thrown out following an interference by deranged lucha star Pagano. ‘The King of Extreme’ ensured that the match between Bandido and Alexander Hammerstone ended in a draw, and after Cesar Duran blatantly paid Pagano for his run in, El Jefe’s lackeys carried Hammerstone backstage. The whereabouts of MLW’s biggest star are unknown, and the boss refused to comment on the situation. Rumors say this has something to do with match fixing and Hammerstone’s decision to stay out of Duran’s money ploys.

Unexpected Reunion In a ‘Three-Way To The Grave’ Match
 

In one of the headline matches of the supershow, King Muertes defeated both Savio Vega and Ivelisse Velez, trapping them in caskets to win the right to challenge Low Ki at the MLW Superfight event. ‘The Man of 1000 Deaths’ did not do it on his own though, with his former confidant Catrina making a surprise appearance from one of the caskets. She helped Muertes with ivelisse and had an intense stare down with Low Ki’s manager Salina de la Renta. It's a get-together station here in MLW, and one would assume that these two ladies would get in each other’s face sooner rather than later… and you bet we are all here for it!

The title made famous by Alex Hammerstone has been vacant for close to a month, but now it belongs to ‘The Heavyweight Hustle’ Calvin Tankman who bested Alex Kane in a close fight. The title was in the physical possession of ‘The Suplex Assassin’ and his mentor AR Fox, but when push came to shove, Calvin stood his ground and grabbed his first piece of gold in MLW. Tankman is heading back to the USA and you can expect him to defend the title soon, as Calvin repeatedly stressed that the championship purse is what’s best for his family.

MLW Azteca Set To Hold More TV Tapings in Mexico
 

There were plenty of debuts at Blood and Thunder. Not only Cesar Duran brought in a few familiar luchadors like Aerostar and Drago, but he also called upon a ‘Minotaur of Lucha Libre’ - Black Taurus! The black bull helped Duran get one over the stubborn cowboy Texano, and it looks like Duran shares some sort of connection with Taurus that might give the boss a new monster to feed. Add Pagano to the mix, and you will get a very interesting cast for the next few weeks of MLW Azteca television… Stay tuned for more news!

MLW Azteca #13

Blood and Thunder supershow was a huge hit, and Cesar Duran looks to build on his success! 
 

Azteca Underground roster is staying in Mexico to bring the local 'renegades' some sweet and snug lucha libre. We have three matches on the card right now, but 'El Jefe' is always ready to pull something out of his sleeve... be it a luchador, a match stipulation, or a shocking announcement - you don't want to miss this episode.
 

In the opening contest of the night 'newcomers' Aerostar and Drago will take on Psicosis and Juventud Guerrera. Cesar has some history with the time-traveling spaceman and the fire-breathing reptile, so the members of The Mexicools would feel extra motivated to spoil the mood for Duran. The animosity towards the authority figure stems from losing Super Crazy due to a Sacrifice to the Gods ritual, which could have been made by Black Taurus, the new beast of the boss!
 

Speaking of Taurus... The Minotaur made quite an impression at Blood and Thunder by beating Texano like a drum. He's rumored to have an actual singles match with the blue collar brawler, but the former AAA Mega champion might not make it to the show following the beating he received a few days ago. Things might get messy here…
 

Although the status of Texano/Taurus is in the air, we will certainly have a women's match in the middle of the card. Chik Tormenta will attempt to rebound after her loss to Marina Shafir when she steps in the ring with Holidead! Tormenta almost suffered a serious injury in the showdown of champions, but will 'suck it up' and try her best.
 

And in the main event, 5150's Homicide will tag along with his protege and current IWA Caribbean champion Low Ki against The Lords of The Underworld - L.A. Park and 'The Man of 1000 Deaths' King Muertes! Salina de la Renta promised revenge on the clients that betrayed her, but can she work with Konnan to get one over the head honcho?

Episode #13 - "Lords of the Underground"

   

Taped for El Rey Network

in Noroccidente, Mexico

    Aired on Week 1, December 2021

   

Announce Team: Konnan and Famous B

 

TcTSA4oN9ee9XRX7tJpRxfUEu_czt3RKi4gG7rYSuoQ_7srjEr4cefni03moOkTmhFyvDh4zrZuwjSwC


The episode starts with Juventud Guerrera and Psicosis having a chat in the locker room. They discuss the arrival of Taurus, and after adding two and two together, they think that Duran unleashed the beast on their friend Super Crazy to make that sacrifice to the Gods.
 

Konnan walks into the room and greets his old acquaintances. He says they go way back, and now they also have beef with Cesar Duran. K-Dawg tells Mexicools that ‘one hand washes the other’, and if they work together, they can get some dubs and money stacks, ese. It all starts tonight, when Psicosis and Juvi beat Aerostar and Drago, two of Duran's minions. 5150 will be looking over to ensure that the real lucha legends get the victory…
 

Just as Konnan fist bumps Juvi, Low Ki and Salina de la Renta step in. They’ve been informed that Ki will tag with Homicide against Muertes and L.A. Park. 

qrWdl4hSlNYXbb9xMDcP2bGKosw2PITCvXJw18-Qk9Eg4wx.jpgGsfrNpB.jpgfK7mKzqUFXXdfESURtZqHYDvnz0NWB9FJXGbXmsd

Salina: Konnan, tell that thug that losing this bout is not an option. I expect a much better performance! Are we clear, grandpa?
 

Konnan: Yo Salina, I know you’re young to the game, but… Homicide was the one who brought Ki over into this business. Put some respect on the man’s name, cause if you don’t, we will be at war again, escucha? And what about you, Ki? You gonna let this chica trash your mentor like that?
 

Low Ki: She’s right. Me and Homicide might have some history, but I don’t have friends. Only business partners. Let’s execute Park and Muertes… professionally.

Homicide: BRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAPPPP!

Homicide scares ‘La Bruja’, which makes Konnan smirk. Ki and Homicide go face to face for a second, and this tense moment ends with Homicide mockingly fixing Ki’s tie and shining up his championship title. You can cut the tension with the knife!
 

After a brand new Azteca intro we get a little recap on what happened at Blood and Thunder. Aerostar and Drago made their Azteca debut alongside Laredo Kid, Aramis and Samuray del Sol, Chik Tormenta almost got her arm snapped in half by Marina Shafir, Angelico and Matt Cross couldn’t beat La Rebellion Amarilla for the CRASH tag team titles, and King Muertes reunited with Catrina to end the lives of Savio Vega and Ivelisse. A moment of silence for those two…

image.jpegimage.jpeg

Konnan says Muertes and Park will get their asses handed to them in the main event, because Homicide is tagging with Low Ki, and despite the tension between them, they’re a pack of hungry Rottweilers that just want to get their bone, orale! Let’s go for the opening contest - Mexicools against Drago and Aerostar! Psicosis is from around this area and gets a nice reaction after his ‘Juicy’ hype man runs his mouth before the match. Drago and Aerostar are popular too, but prefer to let their actions do the talking. Ring the bell!

Psicosis and Juventud Guerrera vs. Aerostar and Drago

 

Quote

Another fun match between four very experienced and capable luchadors! All four are still very good high flyers, so this opener is filled with high spots that give fans a reason to jump out of their seats. Local boy Psicosis is almost caught in a pinning predicament by Drago, but Juvi breaks up the cover! 
 

This is when Aerostar jumps into action and hits a Deja Vu on Juvi, adding a crazy fast Tope Suicida! Flew out of the ring like a rocket! Psicosis follows suit and lands a Psycho Senton on the spaceman, while Drago twists in the air with a Corkscrew Crossbody to put everyone on the ground again! LUCHA-LUCHA-LUCHA!! Drago throws Juvi in the ring, and Aerostar gets a very close count for his Spaceman Splash, only broken up by the Psycho Guillotine! One… two… Drago hits the homeboy with a Running Flipping DDT!
 

Konnan whistles his ‘dogs’ over, and in a matter of seconds Slice Boogie and Danny Rivera put the boots to technicos, ruining a perfectly good match.
 

Aerostar and Drago def. Psicosis and Juventud Guerrera in 8:19 by DQ after 5150 interfered. [57/100]

5150 are talking trash in the camera and flipping off the booing fans. They are pretty mad after losing to Los Parks last Sunday, so Rivera grabs a spray paint can to ‘tag’ Aerostar… But here comes Cesar Duran, who calls 5150 a bunch of sore losers!

MRSia_I33yCPc17y-Q5I0pA6zlQO7FoGcsyzj9TI

Duran: You two want a fight? You want a match with Aerostar and Drago? Then you will get it next week… And when it comes to you, Mexifools, I’ll give you one last warning. You lose one more time, and you’ll join your amigo Super Crazy in the other realm, courtesy of my personal beast… TAURUS!

2FG3fnqo9ahLh6GaTew3G_uNkACJxuTSTgJRqaBA

'El Jefe' raises a stick with the black bull’s head and Taurus runs out of the foggy corridor! Everyone runs in different directions - nobody wants to mess with the horns!

 

Famous B: Oh my gosh, K-Dawg, it’s that animal again! Do you have an escape plan??

 

Konnan: Yeah bro, bulls don’t like the stairway. If I could run, I’d go up.

Backstage, Catrina and King Muertes roll two caskets down the corridor, inside must lay Savio Vega and Ivelisse. ‘The Man of 1000 Deaths’ stops in front of Los Parks and bends the knee before ‘The Chairman’. Catrina puts her hand on King’s shoulder and speaks to the patriarch of the family.

 

"King Muertes wanted to express his most sincere appreciation… for letting me out from The Underworld. I guess four years in the Land of Eternal Rest made him miss me… Accept these two lost souls as a sign of our gratitude…"

 

Park chuckles at the sight of slightly embarrassed Muertes. ‘The Chairman’ has a lot of pull in The Underworld, and he needs his partner tonight to be stronger and more focused, which will be easier with Catrina at his side. The seductress fixes Piedra Immortal around her neck, the amulet that gives its owner immortality, and nods. Park tells his sons to get busy with the bodies, because their papa will have to kick some traseros in the main event! Low Ki, Homicide, whatever. They will all fall down to 'The Grim Reaper'!

vz0mmjUFNi3CCXGe6d4z0Tn6NscEezqoDt9UI61aLFKczTj.jpg

Marty ‘The Moth’ is listening to this conversation from the other room with his ear on the door, and his cover is almost blown by Melissa Martinez, who kicks him in the butt.
 

Melissa: What are you doing, half-bro? Listening to others is naughty!
 

Marty: SHH! Do you want them to hear us!?
 

Melissa: I’ve been in The Underworld because of you, sweetheart… Maybe now it’s your turn to go there!?
 

Marty: Stop. Talking. 
 

Melissa: Or what? Are you gonna call mommy? You’re a pathetic loser, Marty, and a coward.
 

Marty: I am not a coward!! I will get back at Muertes! Nobody disrespects the leader of The Moth Tribe! 

NVBp-MFKdv3Gkq6RqgVePASDkuYRnresfsHjqB66

We’re back to the ringside, and Taurus is still pacing back and forth. Staff, referees, backstage workers all try to lure the beast out of the ring, so the show could go on, but everyone is scared for their life. It looks like a scene from the rodeo, with Taurus reacting to every bit of movement. He then spots a man in a salmon colored jacket… Famous B. He nopes out, not wanting to get run over like his ex-client Texano, but the beast smells fear and goes after him!

image.gif

Famous B takes the steps, hoping that Taurus won’t follow him, but bulls can go up, just not down! Fear gives B wings, but the psycho known as Pagano blocks the escape route for the weasel. ‘The Infamous’ manager finds himself between a rock and a hard place, so he improvises… by giving Pagano his business card! 4-2-3-GET-FAME! ‘The King of Extreme’ takes the card, examines it and… pins it on Famous B’s forehead with a staple gun!! ‘The Infamous One’ is grimacing in pain, while Pagano shrugs and walks away.


Taurus shoves Famous B down from the steps and lands on him with a HUGE Splash. Bulls can’t go downstairs, but this one can fly!!

An impromptu match ends in a blink of an eye with Cesar enjoying every second of it. Taurus ragdolls Famous B and rips his salmon jacket to shreds… B might actually retire after this match, as he gets floored with a devastating Taurus Driver! Hopefully this quenches his thirst for violence.

 

Taurus def. Famous B in 02:13 by pinfall with a Taurus Driver. [32/100]

We get a few more recaps from the Blood and Thunder super show!

Calvin Tankman became the new MLW National Openweight champion, AR Fox put his nose in the showdown of champions between Flamita and Reed, helping Myron retain. Mads Krugger and his CONTRA brethrens choked Jacob Fatu so hard he had internal bleeding, Los Parks retained their Trios gold against 5150 and Homicide, Cesar Duran beat Texano, and finally, the main event match between Hammerstone and Bandido was interrupted by Pagano. After the match we also saw Cesar’s lackeys carrying away the body of our champion.
 

After the recap we get confirmation that 5150 will fight Aerostar and Drago next week, while also being notified that Demonic Flamita and AR Fox could go one on one to determine the legitimate number one contender for Myron Reed’s Middleweight crown! Now Cesar Duran enjoys some whiskey in his office before he is interrupted by the annoying paparazzi Emilio Sparks. Sleazy reporter wants to know why Alexander Hammerstone was captured at the end of Blood and Thunder, and what the boss wants from his own heavyweight champion??

 

a7Xd5p1.jpg
 

Duran: What do I want from Hammerstone? Only one thing… respect!
 

Sparks: El Jefe, are you sure that holding your heavyweight champion captive is best for business? How does it reflect on you as the main man in MLW?
 

Duran: You just said a very smart thing. I’m the main man in MLW, not Hammerstone. He needs to eat a humble pie and learn a thing about subordination! And nobody is holding him captive… have you ever heard of Spartan conditions? Let’s just say he’s in ‘solitary confinement’, but he could be released on bail… for one hundred thousand dollars!
 

Sparks: That’s a lot of money, boss! Who could possibly be willing to pay so much to help Hammerstone?
 

Duran: A certain Richard Holliday comes to mind, for one. There’s also a bright young man called Maxwell who was friendly with Hammerstone back in the day, maybe he has some spare cash? Let’s see if Hammerstone has any real friends…
 

Sparks: Very smart, El Jefe! The Dynasty indeed has a lot of money in their bank accounts!

"Since you’re gonna publish this ‘interview’ online, I want to make a statement, zoom in on my face. I’m not a money mark. I’m a businessman. My word is final, and if they think about playing with me, they will end up like Texano - beaten and bruised by the physical specimen himself… Cesar Duran! Friends of Alexander Hammerstone, I expect to get the payment by the end of the next Azteca Underground show."

 

Big words from the boss! We get back to the ringside to see Chik Tormenta, CRASH Femenil champion, in a sling. She found herself in the Cross Armbreaker after the last match, and now she has to vacate her championship due to injury. She’s pissed, she’s heartbroken, but she will be back stronger than ever! Tormenta’s speech is interrupted by Holidead, who insists that their match goes on as planned, injury or not! This is so not right.

Chik’s injury hampered this one-sided match. The action wasn’t pleasant to the eye, with Holidead working Tormenta’s arm and flooring her with Darkness Falls!

Holidead has terrorized the women’s division with her sadistic approach. She takes all the pleasure in making others suffer, but she also wants to have the title…

 

We’re getting closer to the main event of the evening! We get to see two beefy dudes, Texano and Hammerstone, trying to escape their cells. Separated by a brick wall, Texano keeps charging at the door, all while swearing his boots off.

1YOQrzDv-B7r5_ZKnVedsenSLjfM_5DE9mxLXaB6eBPhk_xRu3MKkjCGiVU2Z6UVzLs_oS0dQH34d-Fl

Texano: PUTA MADRE!
 

Hammer: Dude… you’ve been hitting that door for a few hours now, it clearly isn’t working! 
 

Texano: WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO, PENDEJO!??
 

Hammer: I dunno, maybe SHUT UP, relax, and save your energy for when we really need it?
 

One of Cesar’s masked lackeys enters the penitentiary and says they can make one call! Just one. Texano tells the guard to call 4-2-3-GET-FAME, Famous B is his manager! Hammer puts a veto on that, claiming Famous B has no real money, only NFTs. They will call a guy he can trust, who has actual money, and who has a lawyer in the family. Trust me, bro!
 

Texano spits on the ground and allows Alex to make the call instead. But nobody picks up…

"Hello consumers, you have reached ‘The Most Marketable’, Richard Holliday! Be sure to leave a message after the beep. Keep it short and sweet - I’m a VERY busy man."

*BEEP*

"Oh hey, buddy, Richard! Look, I don’t have much time, so here it is. I’m held captive in some stinking cell with one angry Mexican, and I need your help. I’ve been attacked by a clown at Blood and Thunder, and I think this was all arranged by Cesar. Work out a deal with him, bro, or I’ll lose all my gym gains here… Please, dude, hurry up. You the man!!"
 

Well, here goes nothing. It’s all in the hands of Richard Holliday now… onto the main event!

 

Salina makes her way to the desk with the IWA Caribbean title. She sarcastically greets Konnan and says that Savio Vega and Ivelisse are dead because of HER, not Muertes, and certainly not L.A. Park! Blood and Thunder just proved that Salina always gets what she wants, and sooner or later, both Muertes and Park will be buried 6 feet under! K-Dawg says he’s here for it.

Low Ki’s theme hits, but out comes Homicide, who feels really jolly. Ki follows, and gets in the face of his mentor, not appreciating that he hijacked his entrance. The argument ends when Muertes and L.A Park come out together, sending chills down the arena. This will be wild!

Low Ki and Homicide vs. King Muertes and L.A. Park

 

Quote

Going by the name value alone, this match could do a solid buyrate. But this wild brawl isn’t about money, it’s deeply personal on many different levels!

 

As we found out earlier, prideful Muertes is deeply respectful to the status and legacy of L.A. Park, willing to take a step back and let ‘The Chairman’ to get ‘cooking’. Park is the most popular man in this match, and even though he doesn’t play cleanly, he can do no wrong for these fans. Park and Muertes are stronger and establish themselves as the favorites early on, but they have two tough guys from Brooklyn who have done and seen it all. 


Homicide scratches, bites, and claws at every given opportunity. Low Ki’s trainer and mentor is pulling every dirty trick out of the book, encouraged by Konnan and Salina on commentary.

 

image.gif


‘The Professional’ steals a tag and shows that he’s a performer of the highest caliber who doesn’t need dirty tricks, clobbering Muertes and Park with crisp, stiff kicks. Salina throws around orders on how she wants Ki to punish her traitors, and Catrina holds the mysterious stone up high to give Muertes some vital energy and help him crawl over to his corner! Homicide denies the hot tag by pulling Park from the apron, while Low Ki strikes ‘The Man of 1000 Deaths’ with a Double Foot Stomp to the back! One… two… NO, MUERTES RISES!

 

All hell breaks loose, we get an all out brawl here! Fans in the front row suffer collateral damage, Salina and Catrina are two seconds away from starting a catfight, and Homicide hits his signature Tope Con Hilo! He hit Low Ki more than Muertes and Park, though, sloppy work. Muertes and Low Ki brawl all around the arena, while Park and Homicide renew their fight.

 

After a few chaotic minutes of action, L.A Park catches Homicide with La Lanza and gets a victory! Salina is pissed, and asks Konnan where the hell were Rivera and Slice Boogie?

 

L.A. Park and King Muertes def. Low Ki and Homicide when L.A. Park defeated Homicide in 13:28 by pinfall with La Lanza. [55/100]

image.gif

Salina yells at Konnan to send his goons out, but K-Dawg leaves his desk ignoring the calls. L.A Park mocks his ex-manager and gives the fans a little dance. Good night everybody!

 

The credits start rolling, but we get to see one last thing. Sons of L.A. Park are seen laid out on the floor, with two empty, flipped over caskets nearby.

 

The gift from Muertes and Catrina is lost, and ‘The Chairman’ will not be too happy about it.

CALVIN TANKMAN - HOME SWEET HOME - LATE EVENING
 

The new MLW National Openweight champion arrives home, where he’s greeted by his family! It is an emotional ‘feel good’ moment for ‘The Heavyweight Hustle’, a familyman who will do anything to provide for his nest. Daddy has the gold, and the champion’s purse too! 
 

Calvin: This is for you, baby! I missed you. 
 

The youngest daughter struggles to keep a heavy belt in her hands. Very cute, very wholesome.

ALEX KANE - WWA4 PRO WRESTLING SCHOOL - EARLY MORNING


Alex Kane is training like an animal, suplexing a few students around the ring. He’s doing them with ease, and AR Fox is counting every single throw. Kane hits 20 and gets a short break…


Kane: Tankman, you got the better of me at Blood and Thunder, but trust me, this is not gonna happen again! I’ll train my hardest when you’re cooking breakfast for your daughter, I’ll lift weights when you will be chilling with a burger in your hand, and I’ll run while you play with your kids in the park. Sooner or later, I’ll beat you, Tankman… BOMAYE! BOMAYE! BOMAYE!
 

Fox blows the whistle and Kane starts suplexing academy students again. They don’t call him a ‘Suplex Assassin’ for nothing!

MYRON REED - TIJUANA STREETS - MID DAY

‘The Young G.O.A.T’ is recording a promo about his match with Demonic Flamita, but addresses the elephant in the room - his former teacher and mentor AR Fox.
 

Myron: Yo, I dunno what you were doing out there man, but I want to be very clear - I don’t appreciate it. ‘The Young G.O.A.T’ doesn’t need any help, I’m my own man, and I’m the damn champ! Flamita, we will have another match, now for the MLW Middleweight title, no cap.

JORDAN OLIVER - HOOD - 4:15
 

Oliver: So I woke up a few hours ago, I checked my feed, and everything MLW puts out is about Tankman and Myron Reed… man, that $hit is wack, I don’t want to see any soppy BS. So how about we give people what they really want? ‘Hot Sauce’ Jordan Oliver against Alex Colon on Fusion! El Jefe, you always say you looooove violence, so book me against the deathmatch douchebag!! I’ll do what Myron couldn’t - knock that baldie out, El Jefe!! 
 

Oliver checks his watch, and says he has to run some ‘errands’, do some ‘adult’ sh!t. He instead lights up a blunt and gets the cameraman to GTFO.

KING MO - ATT GYM - EARLY EVENING
 

King Mo: Sup y’all. My camp has accepted an invitation to the next Fusion tapings, where I’ll beat up some poor brother for a place in the Opera Cup! I know this is Tom’s tournament, but I also know that he likes competition. Whatever the outcome, the cup will stay with the American Top Team, cause we’re the most legit athletes in MLW. My record in singles competition is 6-1, so I really should get an automatic qualification. But that’s cool, it will be a good warm up before the tournament… That cat Moriarty can look at the king, but the king has long arms.

TEAM FILTHY - SPA - EVENING
 

‘Filthy’ Tom Lawlor is getting a massage in a spa salon while flipping through the Japanese vocabulary, with The Opera Cup wrapped in a white towel just nearby. Kevin Ku and Dominic Garrini are reading some magazines while they wait for their team leader, but he has another idea. Tom’s honeymoon period with the Opera Cup continues.
 

Lawlor: Kevin, why is there a grease spot on my Opera Cup? 
 

Ku: You smooched the cup while we were stuck in traffic…
 

Lawlor: Ah, yeah, right, that was unforgettable! Clean it up, man, this beauty should be shining!
 

Ku rolls his eyes and Dominic hides his face behind a magazine to avoid getting a chore.
 

Lawlor: I can still see you, young man! Dom! I want you to find a pillow for our friend.
 

Garrini: But Tom, why does this cup need a pillow? 
 

Lawlor: WHY? Opie is not tall enough, he can’t see the road from the front seat! Go find a pillow, don’t be so selfish!
 

Garrini exhales and goes on a search… Lawlor now talks to the cup itself.
 

Lawlor: Me-ga-hana-senai… Opie, this means ‘I can’t take my eyes off you’.
 

Opera Cup: …
 

Ku: Tom, we got some news. Check this out…

LEE MORIARTY - LIVING ROOM - LATE EVENING
 

Lee Moriarty is sitting on the sofa in his headphones, sketching some cool art. In the background we can spot an old John Woo movie… Lee finishes his sketch, and shows it to the camera. In the picture, Moriarty is holding the Opera Cup.
 

Moriarty: What can I say, I dream big. This mentality helped me get on national television and face some of the biggest names in the business. I look at the names of the guys confirmed for the Opera Cup, and I want in. Davey Richards, Alex Shelley, TJ Perkins, Tom Lawlor… It’s a killer’s row, but I am ‘The Apex of Combat’, and I want to show MLW fans what TAIGA STYLE is all about. But to qualify for the cup, I need to go through the former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion King Mo. A tough test, but I’m looking forward to it!

DAVEY RICHARDS - GARAGE GYM - NIGHT
 

‘The American Wolf’ is getting himself into top physical shape before the Opera Cup. Davey intends to win the whole thing, and for that he will need insane stamina.
 

Richards: When I came to MLW, I had a bit of ring rust. A few years away from the ring will do that to you… I had a tough start here, but now I feel like I’m getting to my prime conditions. I don’t know who I’ll get as my opponent, but whoever will stand in front of me will be put through a ringer. My eyes are on the prize, and the hunt begins!!
 

Davey kicks the bags with Metallica blasting in the background. For whom the bell tolls?

ALICIA ATOUT AND RICHARD HOLLIDAY - LUXURY APARTMENT/HOLLIDAY’S PLACE - LATE NIGHT
 

Holliday tells Alicia that the only thing that can get this date better is a cup of dynastic coffee! Before getting the machine going, Richard checks his voicemail, ignoring the angry calls of consumers and consumerninos… The last message is from Alex Hammerstone.
 

"Oh hey, buddy, Richard! Look, I don’t have much time, so here it is. I’m held captive in some stinking cell with one angry Mexican, and I need your help. I’ve been attacked by a clown at Blood and Thunder, and I think this was all arranged by Cesar. Work out a deal with him, bro, or I’ll lose all my gym gains here… Please, dude, hurry up. You the man!!"
 

Atout: Oh my Gosh! He’s in danger!
 

Holliday: I don’t like to say that I told him so, but… I told him so, Alicia! Nothing good ever comes from going to Mexico. Not the best time for aggressive market expansion.
 

Atout: Can you stop talking about business for a second? He needs our help!
 

Holliday: Calm down, silly girl, let me handle this. Such a delicate situation requires a man with a cold head on his shoulders.
 

Holliday shushes Alicia and calls his father/lawyer.
 

Holliday: Hi dad! Hammer is in trouble again… Yeah, I know. He was kidnapped in Mexico, yeah… I know, told him so, pa! So… can you help? Sure, I’ll stay in touch. Yeah, bye!


Alicia says she can’t believe she dates someone who’s calling his dad for advice on everything. They should pack their bags and go to Mexico, now! Holliday tells Alicia to wait, she didn’t even taste his new beans! Ms. Atout walks out and Holliday сurses Hammer out for costing him his hottest lead.


Richard looks at himself in the mirror and ironically says ‘I guess I’m going to Mexico… GREAT!

MLW Fusion #148

Blood and Thunder supershow is in the rearview mirror, and now MLW is fast approaching the 2021 edition of The Opera Cup!
 

A one-night tournament will feature eight of the most capable and hungry competitors in the league, all determined to take the prestigious trophy home. The winner will also automatically become the number one contender for the MLW World Heavyweight championship!
 

Cesar Duran has rewarded War Chamber winners Davey Richards and Richard Holliday with direct entries, but many others had to fight for the right to join the party. Alex Shelley defeated Tajiri, and current cup holder ‘Filthy’ Tom Lawlor bested Ross Von Erich to book their place in the tournament, for example. There will be more ‘qualifying’ matches this week, featuring experienced grapplers who have tried to win the whole thing a few years ago.
 

In the opening contest, ‘Super’ ACH will go one on one with ‘Blessed’ KC Navarro, in what promises to be a firecracker of a match! These two have met each other in the Ladder match for then-vacant MLW National Openweight title, so this bout could settle an old issue...

 

 

In the second match of the evening ‘TAIGA STYLE’ Lee Moriarty will lock up with a former Strikeforce Light Heavyweight champion King Mo.


The member of ‘Team FILTHY’ does not consider Moriarty a threat and sees no harm in trying to take the cup from teammate Tom Lawlor. Lee enters this fight with nothing but positive vibes, and he has good reason to be in a good mood, as his career is certainly going in the upwards trajectory.
 

The third qualifying match for the Opera Cup and our main event of the night will feature TJ Perkins and Matt Cross! Both are bonafide indie scene legends, having spent 23 years in the business. It is believed that Matt was entered into the tournament by Angelico, a good friend and tag team partner of Cross, to keep his mind off the past results and shortcomings.

 

These men last met in 2006, and on that occasion Matt took the victory. Can he get the same result against ‘The Technical Lightning’ TJP sixteen years later, or will he fail to win the big match once again? Whatever happens in the end, this will be a match worth checking out…


Three intriguing matchups will be mixed up with updates from Von Erichs, Big Damo, Richard Holliday, and MLW Women’s champion Marina Shafir!

Episode #148

     

    Taped for Vice TV in South East

    Aired on Week 1, December 2021

     

    Announce Team: Dave Prazak, Rich Bocchini and Jared Saint Laurent
 

The show starts with a hype video for the Opera Cup, highlighting the former winners - Davey Boy Smith Jr. and ‘Filthy’ Tom Lawlor.


The inaugural winner is no longer a part of MLW, and the current trophy holder is focusing more on his New Japan career.
 

However, tonight Tom is here, just like Dominic Garrini and Kevin Ku. Lawlor was called over to hand over the Opera Cup, but something tells us he won’t be very open to that idea. Emilio Sparks runs up to Lawlor and co in the parking lot and asks him about it.
 

Lawlor: No! Not happening. ‘Opie’ is a dear member of Team FILTHY, and he will stay with me until my last breath!


VqfWdF3JLQ7opf9IpP85CzWL3l13RNOW1DNEiDIwryqbgkIlUhen0tWYGz9rljim8CLT4ZJSSn_tLDeOdWi3QL-EAKGDmx6Mi40CIP2PnkV6kQynhwp_npje


Sparks: Who do you think has the best chance of taking this trophy off you?
 

Lawlor: Is that a serious question? Nobody is on my level, pal. I’m the most dangerous man in all of pro wrestling, nobody can touch me in that ring!
 

Sparks: What about your team partner King Mo? He will try to qualify for the Opera Cup tonight!
 

Lawlor: …What do you mean? Mo wouldn’t. Is this just gossip?
 

Sparks: No, he’s scheduled to have a singles match with Lee Morarity tonight, the winner will be entered into the Opera Cup! Don’t tell me you didn’t know!
 

Lawlor puts the camera away from his face and asks if Dom or Kev knew about it? Both silently show that it's news to them too. Alright then… Tom looks at ‘Opie’ and says that he doesn’t want his baby to hear some grown up talking, but it has to be done!
 

Dave Prazak, Jared Saint Laurent and Rich Bochinni welcome us to MLW Fusion and run down the card. We have three qualifying matches to determine more entrants into the Opera Cup. Now though we get to hear from Marina Shafir about her controversial behaviour at Blood and Thunder. To those who missed that supershow - the MLW women’s champion put Chik Tormenta in the Cross Armbreaker, resulting in a broken arm for the luchadora.

8RxaQem.jpg

Shafir: 'I did nothing wrong in Mexico. If you fancy yourself a wrestler, you shouldn’t cry about getting beat up! All these social media warriors who call for MLW to strip me off the title don’t have a single athletic bone in their body, and I would break them in half if they dared to step up and tell those things to my face! Many have tried to to ‘cancel’ me, but I don’t care. Actually, I would do it again. So consider this a warning - whoever will try to take this belt from me will get their arm snapped in half!'
 

Marina doubles down on her position, and the ambassador of the women’s division in Dave Prazak says this is extremely disappointing. He reveals that Marina avoided any punishment only because of ‘El Jefe’. The boss likes her attitude and is searching for someone who could give Marina a bit of competition…
 

Now then, let’s watch some wrestling! KC Navarro and ACH will ‘jerk the curtain’ tonight. ‘Blessed’ wonderkid KC is making his entrance first, he looks confident, maybe even overconfident. He’s a very flashy kid, and he will not shy away from mixing it up with the veterans. ACH can be considered one, spending 15 years in the business… "The Human Video Game Highlight" has bulked up in the last few years, but he’s still a great high flyer that can match the pace of his younger opponent. Ring the bell!

KC Navarro vs. ACH
 

Quote

This is a good way to kick off the show. A fast-paced match that showcases KC’s raw untapped potential and highlights the experience and evolution of ACH.
The story of the match revolved around KC attempting to one-up ACH, performing the same moves in a more exciting way, be it a 450 Splash or a Tope Con Hilo. Navarro got a close near fall after a Satellite DDT, but ACH made a ‘Super’ comeback by hitting a Fisherman DDT followed by a Dragon Fly!
Insane elevation on that splash, and a great victory.

 

ACH def. KC Navarro in 08:29 by pinfall with a Dragon Fly. [42/100]


ACH celebrates his entry into the Opera Cup, and gives some props to KC after the match. ACH wasn’t lucky enough to progress far in the past few tournaments, but perhaps this time he could go all the way to the bank! Rumors have it that the Opera Cup will be held in his native Texas state, so he will have a home advantage.


A213gqr.gif


ACH celebration is interrupted by CONTRA promo. Josef Samael brags about putting down 'The Samoan Werewolf' and choking him into submission...

 

'Jacob, you bit the hand that fed your for years. You thought that you are bigger than CONTRA, but nobody is, not even me. We're the international cabal of violence, we're everywhere, and we will be stronger than ever very soon! Mads Krugger will lead our group and finish what you, Jacob, couldn't finish... I'll give you one more chance to come back, but this time owning up your mistakes won't cut it! HAAAAIIIL COOOOONTRAAAAA!!!'


After another message from CONTRA we get an up-close-and-personal video about our new MLW National Openweight champion - Calvin Tankman.

Among other things, ‘The Heavyweight Hustle’ talks about balancing his work with his family life.
 

XXR6uJO4qrCMdQjPRFwPXeFS_TGXjbKlkltjwFgh


'It’s not easy. Basically, I keep myself busy. It’s one of those things where if I’m not doing something where I’m making money — whether it be work or wrestling — then I should be spending time with my daughter and my family.
 

I just try and spend as much time with her as I can. Between work and wrestling, there may be a week where I’m working six days of that week and I’m gone three of those days. Sometimes it’s seven days a week. Some weekends I have a couple of extra days. It’s all about using your time wisely. Making sure that she knows she’s loved. And then when I go someplace, maybe I’m in Seattle, I Facetime her and show her what I’m doing. Letting her see the crowd, let her see that daddy is out making money so that he can come home and buy her a new game for the Switch or do whatever we need to do. I try and help her understand that this is daddy’s work now. He’s worked hard enough to where it’s not a hobby anymore. It’s a job. That allows me to take care of her in the way that I need to be able to. And this MLW National Openweight title opens up new opportunities to make even more money. Rest assured, I will defend this championship as often as I can. My plan for the near future is to get into The Opera Cup… 


That cup is something that no one could take away from me, something that will prove on that night I am one of the best wrestlers in the world. So bring it, I'm ready!'
 

Speaking of the Opera Cup, a qualifying match for it between Lee Moriarty and King Mo is up next! Short picture-in-picture promos before the bout add a little flavour to the tale of the tape. Lee talks about how unpredictable the ‘TAIGA STYLE’ is, and how it can catch any fighter by surprise, while King Mo scoffs at this imaginary fighting style, saying he’s legit, and he learned to fight in a gym, not by watching action movies.

King Mo vs. Lee Moriarty
 

Quote

This is an intriguing fight however you look at it. On one side we have King Mo, former Strikeforce champion with a 6-1 record in MLW, and on the other we get an underdog with a wholesome smile, who enjoys wrestling not only as a fighting discipline, but also as art.

This shows through in the match, as Lee escapes some holds with innovative reversals and stands his ground against a dangerous striker. Moriarty targeted his offence on King’s arm, hitting it with a Punt Kick and a Double Foot Stomp to set up a Fujiwara Armbar! Mo reaches the ropes, and then goes on a rampage!


He loses his head from anger and gets caught in a Mousetrap pinning manoeuvre that gives Lee a huge victory!!  


Lee Moriarty def. King Mo in 09:12 by pinfall with a Mousetrap. [41/100]


Moriarty is as surprised as King Mo! He backs down and rolls out of the ring, celebrating his entry into the Opera Cup. Just as he turns around the curtain, he bumps into Team FILTHY! Tom Lawlor, Kevin Ku and Dominic Garrini block the exit for the winner.

Lawlor is holding an Opera Cup in his arms and says that’s the closest Morairty will get to ‘Opie’, cause he intends to keep it. Tom and co let Moriarty walk, and instead go up to King Mo… Lawlor is not happy that he accepted that match without his permission.

Lawlor: Mo, I thought we were friends. And here you are, trying to get into MY tournament, without MY permission. Even worse - you have lost to that kid!


King Mo: I don’t have to explain myself to you, Lawlor. But I can tell you one thing - I’m not going to kiss your ass like these two fools right here. You are no longer a big dog in MLW, and you’re only serious when working for New Japan of America. So getcha stupid daisy dukes outta my face!
 

Mo pushes Tom away, and the lid from the Opera Cup falls on the mat. Oh no. Lawlor looks like he has dropped his newborn child, and after processing what just happened Lawlor shoots a double leg takedown on Mo! Garrini and Ku intervene, trying to break up a fight between two camp members.

Mo and Tom hurl verbal abuse at each other, and are led out of the ring before a fight can break out…

We get a pre-taped promo from MLW World Tag Team champions, Von Erichs! Marshall is still nursing his leg injury, so Kevin Von Erich teaches him a few tricks on how to stay fit. Mr. von Erich is in great shape himself, and he looks ready to step in for his son, enforcing a Freebird Rule for the next title defence.
 

Kevin von Erich: Never in my life I would think that I’ll be back in the ring, boys. I thought that the six man tag we had in 2017 would be my last dance… But the situation we have calls for me to step up and show why von Erichs are the toughest family in pro wrestling. Let’s make my grandchildren proud, let’s make Texas proud. Let’s show that we are world class, boys! Now come on, get back to work!

Marshall and Ross say ‘yes, sir’ and continue the workout in the middle of a storm.

Back in the arena, Alex Shelley meets Lee Moriarty backstage and compliments him on a good performance!


Lee is very humbled to get praise from one of the most innovative guys in the business, and bows to Shelley before TJ Perkins shows up nearby.
 

TJP: Gimmie a break! The most innovative guy in the business? Pff. Moriarty, you’re looking up to the wrong guys. If you want to become a real pro, you gotta learn from me!
 

Shelley: You again! Gosh, TJ, have you ever been such a tool? Don’t answer it, a rhetorical question. I hope we get to meet in the Opera Cup, buddy.
 

TJP: Buddy? You’re no friend of mine, Shelley. I hope we meet too though, so I can stretch you out and get that Opera Cup to my trophy collection. I am in the main event, actually, so take notes, kiddo. You’re gonna need them!
 

TJP walks off with a smug look on his face, he’s not too bothered about his opponent tonight. Speaking of… Matt Cross comes out first to a lukewarm reaction from the crowd. It’s been a while since Cross had a big victory in MLW, and beating TJP would certainly put a feather into the punker’s head.


Cross shares that the past few months have been hard on him, but his ‘never say die’ attitude will push him onwards.

TJ Perkins vs. Matt Cross

 

Quote

TJP and Matt Cross engage in a classical chain wrestling opening that highlights TJ’s superiority on the mat and Matt’s willpower to hit back with some high flying! 
 

Cross is not going ‘Gung Ho’ with his offence when he gets a chance to go high risk though, he tries to keep the match safe and clean, even if that makes the whole match a little less exciting. TJ takes over the match by kicking Cross off the top turnbuckle, and working over Matt’s limbs. Perkins is methodical, but also doesn’t miss a chance to antagonise the crowd with his antics. This almost costs him too, as Cross starts his comeback!

Perkins is 'on the ropes', and fans are behind the underdog, who’s steadying himself for the Shooting Star Press! He takes a little too long to execute the move and Perkins rolls out of the ring for safety. Double Foot Stomp to the back on the outside! TJ is laid out on the floor, and Matt goes for the Flagpole Elbow Drop…


But gets hit in the face with a Detonation Kick! TJP will take a cheap victory, but Matt beats the 10 count! Megabuster Neckbreaker sets the scene for a Mamba Splash… Matt raises his knees to block it! Perkins signals that he’s seriously hurt, and ref comes closer to him, only to get decked with a blind Handspring Elbow Smash from Matt Cross! Ref is out of it, but Cross goes airborne and hits a beautiful Shooting Star Press!! One. Two. Three. Four. Five. No use though!
 

Cross is frustrated, but he psyches himself up, feeding off the crowd. TJ pokes Cross in the eyes, hits him with a Clutch Dagger Gutbuster.


Dazed ref wakes up and hits the mats three times, failing to see that TJ put his feet on the ropes for leverage.
 

TJP def. Matt Cross in 14:29 by pinfall after blatantly cheating. [48/100


Wow, that’s so unfair! TJP sleazes into the Opera Cup after and says that the trophy will soon be a crown jewel in the house of ‘The United Empire’! Cross can’t believe his luck and on that note we transition to the last segment of the show.

Richard Holliday and Alicia Atout are about to get on a private jet plane straight to Tijuana. ‘The Most Marketable’ has a suitcase in his hand, perhaps containing a satisfying compensation for Alexander Hammerstone... He also has some backup in the face of EJ Nduka! A gigantic man is happy to join the flight and says that they will need ‘The Judge’ to 'lay the law' on these suckas. Holliday likes that! Well, everything is ready and in place, let’s go rescue ‘The Beef Castle’!

    MLW Azteca #14


In the end of the last MLW Azteca show, sons of L.A. Park were laid out on the floor, with two flipped and empty caskets seen nearby.
 

Someone has stolen Catrina’s ‘offering’ to La Familia Real, the bodies of Savio Vega and ‘La Sicaria’ Ivelisse… Who could be the culprit? There are a lot of suspects. Konnan’s 5150 did not interfere in the main event, and they have some unresolved business with Los Parks. Perhaps it was the doing of Matt Cross and Angelico, who attempted to let Ivelisse free? It could be The Colon family, clients of Salina de la Renta. She has personal motivations to sneak on Muertes and Parks, and Colons had an altercation with the skeletons on their debut.
 

Maybe, just maybe, Aerostar and Drago decided to enter The Temple to undo the mistakes of others... Or was it the unhinged psycho Marty ‘The Moth’, who had a few battles with Savio and some interest in attacking and torturing Ivelisse?  El Jefe would have to showcase his deductive methods if he wants to find the attackers.
 

He also has a show to run, with lots of exciting matches that could go western real quick.

5150 vs. Aerostar and Drago
 

First match of the night features an out-of-this-world team of luchadors - Drago and Aerostar, and NY street dogs Slice Boogie and Danny Rivera. Lucha stars picked up two wins already, and look like they haven’t missed a beat since stealing the show in the old Temples. They are loosely affiliated with ‘El Jefe’, while their opponents 5150 are managed by K-Dawg, one of Cesar Duran’s oldest rivals. Gangsters jumped the technicos and were seconds away from ‘tagging’ them, but the boss stuck his nose in and made this an official match. Slice Boogie and Danny Rivera would like to rebound after their supershow loss to Los Parks, and ‘stick it’ to the boss, by beating one of his ‘favorites’...

AR Fox vs. Flamita
 

The second match of the show features two top contenders for Myron Reed’s MLW Middleweight title. An interpromotional battle between Reed and Flamita was hindered by AR Fox, who helped ‘The Young GOAT’ retain the title. Myron did not appreciate that one bit and promised to give Flamita a fair rematch, now for the title. Problem is, AR Fox has a pinfall victory over Myron and has a solid case for requesting a title shot and getting one before Flamita. Now we have a match between two of the best flyers in the game, to determine who will be fighting the champ next. Myron is scheduled to make an appearance, things can get feisty.

Laredo Kid, Samuray del Sol, Aramis, Angelico, Gringo Loco vs. Arez, Bestia 666, Mechawolf, El Hijo de L.A. Park, L.A. Park Jr.


For the main event, we get a 10-man tag team match, which is not rare for a big lucha event! The superteam of Aramis, Laredo Kid and Samuray del Sol will be joined by Angelico and Gringo Loco to oppose Bestia 666, Mechawolf, Arez, El Hijo de L.A. Park and L.A. Park Jr! Angelico has a tooth for La Rebellion Amarilla, and the super trio are next in line to challenge Los Parks for the Trios titles. Bodies will be flying all over the arena in this one, and the match could end any second, as one fall would be enough to win the match! L.A. Park will be watching his sons and expecting them to keep the hot streak of La Familia Real…
