Round five of the MLW Open Draft took place this evening and while there were no new names debuting this week there was a match announced for Battle Riot III which will take place July 10 in Philadelphia.
As always, Alicia Atout MC’ed the episode and revealed three names that will be returning to Major League Wrestling. TJP happens to be one of those names and Atout hinted at him setting his sights on Myron Reed’s World Middleweight Title. While a babyface in IMPACT Wrestling, TJP took a big time heel turn in MLW when he turned on his former tag partner and protege, Bu Ku Dao.
Another pair of heels returning will be Violence Is Forever. Dominic Garrini and Kevin Ku have been Tom Lawlor’s two dirty brothers in Team Filthy and they’ll be looking to make further waves in the tag team division.
Alicia closed out the episode with a big match on card for Battle Riot III. Richard Holliday will defend his Caribbean Title against King Muertes as Cesar Duran will look to secure some gold under the Azteca Underground banner.
