Willie Mack is coming to MLW

We get a video of Cesar Duran on the phone, he’s brokering some deals for MLW. Duran yells at his masked goon for being behind him all the time and creeping him out. His peace is interrupted by Richard Holliday & Alicia Atout. Duran is annoyed that Holliday is ruining his mood.

Holliday wants some gratitude at least for saving Duran from Alexander Hammerstone again. Holliday wants another title shot, and Duran appreciated the violence Holliday showed so he’ll get his title shot in 2 weeks in a Falls Count Anywhere match. The 3 of them then sing a little parody song of New York, New York, and Duran warns Holliday that if he fails again there wont be another chance.

Duran gives a chain to his goon and tells him to find Microman and end the little gremlin once and for all. The goon is a little hesitant, and Duran slaps some sense into him.

Winner: KC Navarro

We get an update on the condition of MLW World champion Alexander Hammerstone after the attack from last week, Hammerstone has injuries to his ribs and wont be 100% for his title defense in a couple of weeks.

A recap of Mance Warner fighting with Mads Krugger from last week, then in the back Mance gets an interview. Asked about his two years out of MLW he talks about feuding with a bear in Canada, getting over big in Mexico but being stuck at the border because he looks like someone with scars all over his face.

But that’s the past, Mance is back in MLW and wants a fight with Mads Krugger because Krugger is a monster and he loves cutting up monsters. One more thing, he promises to take off Krugger’s head and then hit the pay window.

Another brief recap, this time of the end of the Battle Riot which dovetails into Real1 talking in the back. Real1 says they’ve got a situation, insults the body of Jacob Fatu then he insults the Anoa’i family and calls Fatu a dime store Rikishi. He calls Fatu an above ground pool, and goes on a bit of a rant that makes very little sense, then promises to change Fatu when they next meet.

In the back Savio Vega and Lince Dorado find an unconscious Budd Heavy with a weird card on his belly.

Also, in the back, Jacob Fatu is talking and eating with Microman. He thinks he agrees with an investment opportunity from Microman then heads out. Fatu comes back in time to see the masked goon walking up on Microman, and Fatu scares him off.

Winner: Scarlett Bordeaux

Featherweight Champion Taya Valkyrie gets an interview on the entrance stage, she plays with the crowd and then thinks Scarlett Bordeaux is a great addition to the women’s division. She’s willing to defend her Featherweight Title against anyone, and that seems to prompt an ambush from Brittany Blake. Blake beats down Taya for a bit before officials pull the two apart.

In the back the Bomaye Fight Club. National Openweight Champion Alex Kane used to look up to Davey Richards, but Richards quit on everyone, including himself. Kane calls the comeback of Richards all smoke and mirrors, and next week, he’s going to beat Davey Richards.
