Santana/Chelsea was fun stuff.
Anyone else notice Low Ki watching the main? He'd better be sitting his belt mark ass back down, really don't want to see him in the title picture.

The women's match was decent. First time I have seen Garrett. Gotch's "match" was meh. But the main event made up for it. Wish Low Ki would piss off Court Bauer so i wouldn't see Low Ki's crappy ass in MLW.
But still the best hour long wrestling show on TV right now. Just wish more people were watching. Remember if you don't get BeIN Sports,3 or so days after a new episode airs check the BeIN Sports Youtube channel,they are uploading each episode.

Nice to finally she womens wrestling after seeing it in the promo. Didn't even recognize Laurel Van Ness with the brown hair. I liked that they gave the main event a half hour, showing it the recognition it deserves. Great match but the last f minutes were amazing.

Hager/Cobb was good stuff. Just two big athletic former amateur wrestlers throwing down.
F*** Rich Swann.
When did Sawyer Fulton show up, and is WWE able to C&D what is essentially him still using the Sanity gimmick?
Watching this week's, I get the feeling that certain things were not shown in proper order. Janela trashing MJF's dressing room last week would've made a ton more sense if it happened after what happened during/after this week's main, not before, for example.

Been watching this on youtube. Each week they seem to get better and better. A lot of talent on this roster and some I could do without. With the WWH stuff wasn't a thing because I loved to see Matt Riddle in the ME picture. The title finals match was insane with Shane. Those two should been the face of MLW IMO.

Riddle was awesome and I loved seeing Stokely Hathaway take the reigns of Black Friday Management. Sad that those guys can't work MLW right now, but I really like Fusion. The show's production has improved a lot since the first week and while they share talent with other companies, creatively they're doing their own thing. They're not trying to compete with WWE, ROH, WWN, Impact, or LU. They're trying to be the best MLW they can become.

It's more simple angles that a fan can follow without being confused on what is going on. I love the focus on being a company that as all different styles of wrestlers, saying they have a little bit of everything in a something for everyone kind of thing. Like I said before I love Tony on play by play doing the more pre Nitro style of his and not the over the top saying every night is the Greatest night in our sport. Just calling the action with in site. That the thing they don't need to compete with anybody. Just be MLW and be successful with building there own brand. Maybe try and gain relationships with them for a talent level.

Another good episode. My only issue was there was too much flippity back and forth in the Rich Swann match. Once or a couple of times at the start is o.k.. but after a while it seemed as if it was only to prolong the match and was over kill. Like the buildup for Janela vs. MHF.

Cobb vs Hager was fun Swann vs the Haitian guy was a bit too long.
Callihan vs Janella was damn good.
Again best hour of wrestling each week.

Finally got a chance to check out some episodes today and was blown away by how good it was. It is quite different from the original MLW. Not that, that’s a good or bad thing, it is just different. It reminds me a little of Paragon Pro Wrestling, but with a bigger budget and a much better handle on things. I hope MLW is sustainable this time Anyone have any idea how much they are getting paid for their rights fee and how much they spend to put these episodes together? I know they tape multiple episodes per taping, but with the quality of talent I figure it can’t be cheap.

A week or 2 ago Sawyer Fulton just shows up and Tony & Rich act like he’s always been there now this week Tony is puzzled who this large man with “Fulton” written on his shirt is.
Also when you only have 1 hour do you really need 4 or 5 different pretty girl backstage interviewers? I love pretty girls but 1 or 2 would suffice so you could kinda establish them.

I think that's because of the filming schedule. Vanessa Craft, the one who interviewed MJF, was wearing the same thing she wore last week when she interviewed Col. Parker so a lot of the backstage segments are probably filmed at once. I really liked the first match as it showcased the fusion style that can set MLW apart from other wrestling shows. For a 1 hr show I do like how they deIvelop storylines simultaneously. A lot of bigger companies cold learn from them.

Oh, my god, this show is so much fun. It feels like I'm watching the 2018 version of the old Jim Crockett shows.
Love the throwback style of Col. Parker's stable (he's still got it), how Bret Hart-ish Strickland has been as champ, the simple storytelling. It's awesome.

I figured as much there’s been instances where the announcers talk about things that haven’t happened yet on the show and don’t end up happening till a week or 2 later or they talk about stuff happening last week when it actually happened 3 or 4 week ago.About a month ago there was a show where Andrea does an interview then they went back to Tony & Rich for like 20 seconds then back to another interview with Andrea who has different makeup,hair and outfit. I enjoy the show it flies by and they don’t try to put too much on the show like tna did when they only had an hour and they give the main event time and they have a pretty diverse roster.Plus I like that Tony & Rich get along and just call the action.

This was another good episode. It wasn't spectacular but that's a good thing. Just a good show which continued the storylines. Loved the tag team main event.

That what I like about it, it's simple storytelling and nothing they are doing is this crazy over the top stuff and most cases you don't need anything more. I like how the play by play is just that. No "heel and face" Just two guys calling it. It's a nice change for once with either of them super anoying.

Loved them giving us 4 names for the Rumble Riot reminded me of watching superstars and wrestling challenge for the rumble report so Mean Gene could release names at a trickle.

I'm currently in the process of watching wrestling outside of the WWE for the first time in years i've already seen a few of ricochets pre-WWE matches. And i'm going to watch New Japan Dominion at some point and i was looking forward to seeing MLW Fusion after seeing this thread. But i don't have access to beIN SPORTS and i tried to watch any of the episodes that are on the beIN SPORTS YouTube channel but the shows are blocked for UK users.
