Lance Anoa’i enters Battle RIOT V

MLW returns to Philly April 8

(PHILADELPHIA) — Major League Wrestling today announced Lance Anoa’i as a participant in the 40-wrestler Battle RIOT V when MLW returns to Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena on Saturday, April 8.

🎟 Grab tickets at MLW2300.com and the 2300 Arena box office. Tickets start at $15.


The eleventh participant in Battle RIOT V is… one-half of the new World Tag Team Championship team of the Samoan SWAT Team, Lance Anoa’i.


A third-generation wrestler, Lance Anoa’i is the latest chapter of storied Samoan dynasty.

The son of Samoan SWAT Team founding member Samu, grandson of Afa and cousin of The Rock, Lance Anoa’i is a blend of agility and innovation.

Going to MLW fight cards as a child watching his father and uncles compete as the Samoan Island Tribe, Lance aspired to join them one day. That day has come.

Lance made his MLW debut in 2018 in the Battle Riot and returned to the league in 2022 as part of the new era Samoan SWAT Team alongside Jacob Fatu and Juicy Finau.

The strategist for the SST’s matches, Anoa’i is the laid back, cerebral combatant of the trio. Respected for his smooth in-ring skills, Anoa’i can go from grappling to hitting thriller top rope attacks in a matter of seconds.

The Samoan Swat Team ravaged the tag team circuit in the 1980s and 90s with Samu and Fatu warring with the likes of the Steiner Bros., Von Erichs, Freebirds and countless others as they took the world by storm.


Now, Lance Anoa’i looks become a double champion by winning the Battle RIOT to guarantee his title shot and challenge the reigning World Heavyweight Champion Alex Hammerstone.

40 wrestlers will riot in Philly as one combatant looks to outlast 39 others and earn a world title shot anytime, anywhere against Alex Hammerstone.

John Hennigan
Raven
Willie Mack
Rickey Shane Page
Shigehiro Irie

🎟 Grab tickets at MLW2300.com and the 2300 Arena box office. Tickets start at $15.


A perennial main eventer in Mexico, Sam Adonis was once described by a Mexican tabloid as “the most hated man in Mexico.” Now he’s putting his name in the mix as one of the 40 combatants in Battle RIOT V.


Standing 6’4″, the Pittsburgh showboat’s big mouth and unapologetic attitude have helped launch him into stardom.


Flagrantly breaking the rules in bouts, Adonis can back up his trash talking, unleashing 450 splashes, brainbusters and his signature Orange Blossom Thunder Driver.


Forever hated by Mexican fans for defeating Blue Panther and taking his hair in a high-profile Luchas de Apuestas, Adonis thrives on the shock and scandal of his fame and success.


Ruthless in and away from the ring, this abrasive heat seeker can switch-up styles from lucha to brawling to whatever it takes to get the win.


Now Mexico’s top rudo enters the Battle RIOT. Will he grab the golden ticket and secure a title shot anytime, anywhere against Hammerstone?

The ninth participant in Battle RIOT V is official and it’s the 1 Called Manders!

From the Cornfields of Iowa, the 1 Called Manders has been hitting highways and raising hell in towns coast-to-coast and along the way built quite a reputation.


Standing 6’1”, this rawboned “Boss of the Plains” is a versatile wrestler. Manders can brawl with the best of them and switch gears and do just about anything from grappling to tossing a literal kitchen sink at his opponents.


A member of the Second Gear Crew alongside Mance Warner and Matthew Justice, there may be no tougher trio in the sport.


A former Iowa Hawkeye, playing football at an elite level, Manders is one cowboy you don’t want to cross paths with.


A certified hoss, the 1 Called Manders is known for his heavy hitting style – and leaving his adversaries in a heap of wreckage. Tipping his hat as he cracks open a beer, reminding all there are two guarantees in this life: death and lariats.

For the first time-ever, Davey Boy Smith Jr. and Calvin Tankman will lock horns and grapple in the Big Apple.


The explosive low center of gravity of Tankman presents a unique challenge for the 2019 Opera Cup winner Smith. Tankman, an MMA practitioner with uncanny agility, is battle tested.


Fresh off a year-long reign as a World Tag Team Champion, Tankman will battle another man who enjoyed a dominant reign as champion in the tag team division in DBS.


The captain of the “British Bulldog” fight team, Smith has his eyes on getting in the mix for a world title shot. Tankman, pivoting to a return to a singles career, has a big statement to make to matchmakers.


“The quintessential unstoppable force meeting an immovable object," said MLW Founder Court Bauer. “This is going to be a heavy-hitting hoss fight. New York fans live for precisely this type of big man bout and they’re in for a great one with Tank-Smith.”

For the first time in 20 years Raven enters an MLW ring April 8th as he joins 39 other combatants battling it out for the golden ticket: a title shot anytime, anywhere.


Returning to the hardcore hallowed grounds of the 2300 Arena where he spilled blood and conjured up some of the most iconic and extreme moments in pro wrestling, Raven relishes the opportunity of obtaining a title shot.


Known for an uncanny high threshold for pain, Raven is as cerebral as he is sinister.


With a blood-splattered resume of violent feuds in MLW, including against the likes of Vampiro and CM Punk, among others, Raven is a dangerous and unrelenting force.


Emerging as a part of The Calling, alongside Rickey Shane Page, AKIRA and numerous still unknown gas mask cloaked individuals, The Calling are responsible for countless attacks on the roster.

The card is an MLW TV taping, airing nationwide in the US and in over 60 countries around the world.


Winning the World Middleweight Championship in 2021, Lio Rush’s reign as champion was noteworthy for his rapid succession of title defenses against a who’s who. Rush’s prolific title reign including dethroning Laredo Kid in a high-profile inter-promotional clash, unifying the MLW World Middleweight and AAA Cruiserweight Championship.


Now “The Bad Child” is coming to New York City with bad intentions on taking the belt back home.


Another title defense another lituation for the World Middleweight Champion Lince Dorado. Dorado, who defeated Shun Skywalker to win the title in late 2022, has been enjoying a spectacular reign as champion… but the blistering speed and innovation of Lio Rush promises to put Dorado in the deepest waters he’s endured as champion.


Will the golden lynx pounce another challenger?


Will Rush regain the coveted gold he once wore around his waist?

John Hennigan & Jimmy Lloyd enter Battle RIOT V

MLW returns to Philly April 8

(PHILADELPHIA) — Major League Wrestling today announced John Hennigan & Jimmy Lloyd as participants in the 40-wrestler Battle RIOT V when MLW returns to Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena on Saturday, April 8.

🎟 Grab tickets at MLW2300.com and the 2300 Arena box office. Tickets start at $15.


Two of wrestling’s true physical specimens have officially entered Battle RIOT V, with John Hennigan and Jimmy Lloyd joining a who’s who in this year’s 40-wrestler extravaganza.


The newly minted National Openweight Champion, John Hennigan could cement his position in MLW and mirror World Champion Hammerstone’s own ascension by winning the RIOT and punching his ticket to a title vs. title showdown.


With a unique parkour background, Hennigan could be the most elusive and challenging combatant in the RIOT… especially if his AZTECA Lucha cohorts join the “Shaman of Sports Entertainment” in entering the RIOT.


Known for his athletic feats and chiseled physique, Hennigan will have to compete with another breed of specimen in Jimmy Lloyd.


Lloyd isn’t afraid of taking on anyone in any match, as the independent underdog’s reputation has grown while enduring uncanny levels of pain while dripping in blood. Smashing light tubes and defying the odds in death matches, Jimmy Lloyd is battle-tested in just about every environment.


Dedicating 2022 to expanding his hardcore fighting base to become a hybrid wrestler, Lloyd sees the Battle RIOT as the ultimate test. In a never-ending quest to earn the respect and prove his worth, no matter the risks to his own body, Lloyd looks to bring the Battle RIOT golden ticket (and a few Philly cheesesteaks) back to Jersey with him on April 8.


Can Lloyd’s high threshold for pain and blend of carnage help him clinch victory in the RIOT?


Will John Hennigan be the final man standing at the end of Battle RIOT V?

40 wrestlers will riot in Philly as one combatant looks to outlast 39 others and earn a world title shot anytime, anywhere against Alex Hammerstone.


Billie Starkz vs. B3CCA signed for MLW April 6 in NYC

MLW returns to NYC April 6 featuring WAR CHAMBER

Major League Wrestling today announced Billie Starkz vs. B3CCA at MLW War Chamber’23 Thursday, April 6 at New York City's Melrose Ballroom.

🎟Buy tickets at www.MLWNYC.com and on Eventbrite.


The card is an MLW TV taping, airing nationwide in the US and in over 60 countries around the world.


As the women’s featherweight division continues to expand and showcase a new generation of female fighters, two of the most talked about wrestlers will collide in the mecca of wrestling: New York City.


Billie Starkz has been winning bouts and the adoration of the fans since debuting. B3CCA has been making the critical gains to get into title contention. Now the two are set to meet in a high stakes bout with championship implications for the winner.


One of the most talked about up-and-coming prospects in the sport, Starkz, an 18-year-old high school senior, is already 4-year veteran of the squared circle. Fresh off of her first tour of Japan, Starkz’s momentum is at an all-time high as the Louisville native enters a match that could cement her as the next challenger for Taya Valkyrie’s world championship.


An impressive emerging force of a new generation of wrestlers out of the New England area, B3CCA is a breakout star on the northeast wrestling circuit. Igniting roars from the fans with her breathtaking 450 splash, B3CCA has quickly captured the attention of promoters around the world.


With multiple tours of Europe, the “international pop star” has enjoyed high-profile bouts in the UK’s Pro Wrestling EVE organization as well as Germany’s wXw.


With a depth of experience, having trained with some of the best around the world, B3CCA now targets Billie Starkz as the final hurdle to challenging for her first world championship.


Who will prevail?


See Billie Starkz vs. B3CCA LIVE Thursday, April 6th in NYC at MLW War Chamber’23.


Willie Mack has entered Battle RIOT V

MLW returns to Philly April 8

(PHILADELPHIA) — Major League Wrestling today announced Willie Mack as a participant in the 40-wrestler Battle RIOT V as MLW returns to Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena on Saturday, April 8.

🎟 Grab tickets at MLW2300.com and the 2300 Arena box office. Tickets start at $15.

Willie Mack comes from the streets where he fights to live and lives to fight, given him the skills he needs to be a contender to outlast 39 other combatants and win Battle RIOT V.


The self-proclaimed “chocolate thunder” is a talented fighter, blending lucha, technical and high-flying. The charismatic Mack has been a standout everywhere he’s competed… but he’s never competed in a Battle RIOT until now.

From claiming titles all over the US to tours of Mexico, Willie Mack is a savvy and unpredictable competitor, which could benefit him in the literal biggest match in MLW.


Noted for his finesse and uncanny agility for his size, Willie Mack’s goal is simple: win the RIOT and clutch his title shot.

40 wrestlers will riot in Philly as one combatant looks to outlast 39 others and earn a world title shot anytime, anywhere against Alex Hammerstone.

Battle RIOT entrants:
Willie Mack
Shigehiro Irie

MLW2300.com and the 2300 Arena box office. Tickets start at $15.


“Beast Mode” will be unleashed as Shigehiro Irie readies to outlast 39 other combatants and secure his title shot anytime, anywhere by winning the Battle RIOT.


A member of the STRONGHEARTS fight team, Irie is no stranger to MLW. Last competing in an MLW ring in 2019, Irie has deepened his arsenal and emerged as one of Japan’s most lethal powerhouse wrestlers.


Decimating the competition in Japan to recent European excursions, Irie’s “Beast Mode” nickname is well earned. Winning championships in multiple organizations in Japan but winning the World Heavyweight Championship in MLW would be the crown jewel of Irie’s impressive career.


Can Shigehiro Irie outfight and outlast 39 other combatants and win literally the biggest match in MLW?

40 wrestlers will riot in Philly as one combatant looks to outlast 39 others and earn a world title shot anytime, anywhere against Alex Hammerstone.

First time ever clash April 6 in New York City at MLW WAR CHAMBER

Major League Wrestling today announced Shigehiro Irie vs. Alex Kane at MLW War Chamber’23 Thursday, April 6 at New York City's Melrose Ballroom.

🎟Buy tickets at www.MLWNYC.com and on Eventbrite.


The card is an MLW TV taping, airing nationwide in the US and in over 60 countries around the world.


A member of the STRONGHEARTS fight team, Irie is no stranger to MLW. Last competing in an MLW ring in 2019, Irie has deepened his arsenal and emerged as one of Japan’s most lethal powerhouse wrestlers.


Decimating the competition in Japan to recent European excursions, Irie’s “Beast Mode” nickname is well earned. Winning championships in multiple organizations in Japan as well as in North America, the versatility of Irie makes him a formidable foe.


Adding muscle to his heavy-hitting power offense, Irie promises to not allow anyone in MLW – including Alex Kane to toss him around with suplexes.


The captain of the Bomaye Fight Club welcomes such a challenge. A top 2021 Open Draft selection, Kane’s meteoric rise in MLW is one for the books. Claiming the National Openweight Championship in his rookie year, Kane has become one of the league’s top ranked grapplers.


“This match-up is one we’ve wanted to put together for a long time, and we’re delighted to give to the hardcore New York fans,” said MLW CEO Court Bauer. “Styles make fights and this one fits that to a tee. Two fighters with an insane repertoire and no fear. Let’s pull the ripcord and see a big apple grapple.”


For Kane to cement his place in the world class category and solidify his spot in the main event mix, a win over Irie is critical. However, Irie looks at MLW as a destination to expand on his momentum as a towering powerhouse force.

Mack, a popular fan favorite, has been making moves as he climbs the rankings and continues to gain momentum with every outing.


Impressing MLW matchmakers, Willie Mack now enters deep waters as he faces the top ranked and controversial “Certified G” from Jersey.


Never one to be shy about his opinion, Real1 has reportedly been outspoken and disrespectful in his assessment of Mack. From questioning his stamina to making jokes at The Mack’s expense, Real1 has downright been insulting towards one of wrestling’s most beloved.


Now the two will rumble in the Big Apple, the destination for some of the sport’s greatest showdowns.


Will the dirty boxing and ruthless rulebreaking of Real1 prevail?

AKIRA signs with MLW

See him live April 6 in New York City at MLW WAR CHAMBER

(New York) — Major League Wrestling today announced the signing of AKIRA, as MLW looks to expand its roster, with the arrival of its new hit series, MLW UNDERGROUND on REELZ.


AKIRA is a new breed of fighter.

Marrying Catch Wrestling and the Deathmatch fighting style, a seemingly unholy matrimony, AKIRA has brought together Inokiism and the crazy deathmatch stigmata of Jun Kasai. He calls this dangerous blend of fighting “CATCH x DEATH”.

On a blood-splattered journey of violence and education, AKIRA has traveled to every corner of combat sports, from the world of glass and barbed wire to battling in martial arts and catch-as-catch-can. Earning an underground rep for being a dangerous combatant with an unusual ability to endure pain and convert it into momentum to triumph in battle, AKIRA is 1000% fearless.

AKIRA’s goal is to become the best in the world, defy those that held him back, and showcase a new era of fighter with a new way. The AKIRA way.


AKIRA will next compete in MLW April 6 in New York City and April 8 in Philadelphia. For more information visit: http://www.MLWtickets.com.
