Guest HHH123007 Report post Posted April 7, 2003 Correct me if I'm wrong, but tonight marks the debut of MLW's new show on The Sunshine Network....I know I'll be watching....will anyone else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 7, 2003 I'm watching. I'm pretty psyched about seeing something other than RAW on Monday's! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHH123007 Report post Posted April 7, 2003 Yeah, I like the fact that they don't run at the same time too.....that gives me the chance to enjoy both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Well I will have to miss the 5 minute over run at the end of RAW-but I don't have a problem with that. I am definitely going to watch the MLW show from beginning to end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Sorry for the double post. Computer is not working very well. Flame below if you must Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHH123007 Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Well, I found it entertaining.....I thought it would just be a clip show, but there was actually wrestling! Â Daniels/Vampiro was very solid....the other matches were just okay.. Â Anyone know when these matches were taped? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted April 8, 2003 What matches were on it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 8, 2003 The were taped at the "Genesis" tapings back in Sept (I think it was Sept.).  Matches were:  Jerry Lynn vs. La Parka  Malice vs. Taiyo Kea  Vampiro vs. Christopher Daniels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHH123007 Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Yeah, Kea/Malice was badly clipped, so I wouldn't even consider it much of a match... Â What was the tournament they were talking about? Was it for the World Title? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Human Fly Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Things don't start heating up for the promotion until Kojima comes in. I don't think they should run in the ECW arena anymore. I don't think they will either, they had the one show but since then they have been in NY and Florida. Now being on the Sunshine Network, and their next show in Orlando it sounds like Florida is going to be the base of operations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 8, 2003 What was the tournament they were talking about? Was it for the World Title? Â At their first show "Genesis" they had a one night tourney for the MLW Title that was won by Shane Douglas. Douglas then had a disagreement with the company (probably cause he was going to work for XPW) and dropped the title. At the next show Kojima beat Jerry Lynn for the title.

Guest HHH123007 Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Things don't start heating up for the promotion until Kojima comes in. So does that mean that they are gonna keep showing old stuff for weeks and weeks? Â I'd prefer if they drop all the history of their promotion so far and just started over without stripping whatever champions there are. Â Is this "Global" Tag Title Tourney something new? Or is it something that has already happened? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Human Fly Report post Posted April 8, 2003 There have only been 3 shows so far in the companies history. Starting in May they are having shows once a month. The Tag Tourney finals are May 9th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHH123007 Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Wow, I didn't realize that they haven't been doing anything all this time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 8, 2003 They have only had 3 shows so far so there is really not too much to show. They have a TV taping scheduled for May 9th with a killer lineup: Â Vampiro vs. Daniels Ikuto Hidaka vs. Fuego Guerrero (Red) Corino vs. Funk CW & Simon vs. Williams & Friedman Jerry Lynn vs. Paul London Sabu vs. La Parka Los Maximos vs. Nosawa/Masado plus CM Punk and I coulda swore I heard them say Mike Awesome vs. Raven but I am not sure about that one-I may have just been hearing things.

Guest Human Fly Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Kojima has defended the title in AJPW in the last few months, maybe they will be able to show those matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChaosTheory Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Kojima has defended the title in AJPW in the last few months, maybe they will be able to show those matches. Â Wishful thinking but the Kojima vs. Ohtani match back in Dec was really good and I wouldn't mind seeing the defense versus Johnny Smith from January.

Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted April 8, 2003 Yeah, I watched it. There were a few things I noticed. Â Daniels vs. Vampiro was a good match, except for the fact that the ending felt pretty rushed. Â It felt like ECW Hardcore TV, what with the same commercials being played over and over again, for 1wrestling.com (with good CKY background music) and merchandise. Â The audio was kinda fucked. I heard too much Styles and not enough of the good crowd, or the PA system. During the Daniels/Vamp match, you could tell that the crowd actually favored Daniels, despite the lack of audio, though.

I had heard that on BTR, when they interviewed Joey Styles.... and the first thing I thought of was "damn, I picked the WRONG time to move to Michigan!" Â I just hope they keep it going and in time, start to challenge WWE... as I have said before, Vince NEEDS competition, someone to raise the bar and keep things from getting complacent. Â MLW needs a major name inthe next year or so to take it to the next level, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guybrush Threepwood Report post Posted April 11, 2003 If anyone is interested I've started a MLW Forum. It's nothing special just a place for MLW fans to chat.  MLW Forum  Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2003 If they start showing some of the matches from Reload you should definitely check that out. Super Crazy vs. Fuego Guerrero, Christopher Daniels, Dick Togo, and Ikuto Hidaka vs. The S.A.T. and Quiet Storm, Shocker vs. La Parka, and Satoshi Kojima vs. Jerry Lynn are all great matches. I wish I got MLW, hopefully they'll begin showing their show here in North Carolina.  Terry Funk vs. Steve Corino La Parka vs. Sabu Steve Williams and P.J. Friedman vs. C.W. Anderson and Simon Diamond Vampiro vs. Christopher Daniels Ikuto Hidaka vs. Fuego Guerrero Paul London vs. Jerry Lynn Los Maximos vs. Nosawa and Masada Mike Awesome vs. Raven  That is the lineup so far for their next show entitled Revolutions.

Guest Evil Ash Report post Posted April 14, 2003 Kojima has defended the title in AJPW in the last few months, maybe they will be able to show those matches. Â His match against Nagai in All Japan was really, really good, by my reckoning. If they show that, watch for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Voices In Your Head Report post Posted April 14, 2003 Here's what I've found listed on the preview for tomorrow night's show from the MLW website [www.mlw.com]  The following matches from the show at the Elk's Lodge in Queens [or Manhattan Center in NYC, whatever works for you] will be shown: *MLW World title match: Satoshi Kojima vs. Jerry Lynn *Terry Funk vs. Chris Candido  It also mentions that "Dr. Death" Steve Williams & P.J. Friedman will appear, and that they'll have more on Raven. The preview also mentioned that there will be another surprise.  [Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing Kojima vs. Lynn, as I've never seen Kojima wrestle before, and I'm intrigued by the promise of a second surprise. After watching last week's show, and seeing Raven at the end, I've decided to make sure I catch MLW every week] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2003 I guess I've had MLW all along, I just didn't notice until today. Since this week they started showing some matches from King of Kings maybe they'll show Fuego Guerrero vs. Super Crazy vs. Christopher Daniels next week.
