Yeah he's one of my favorite consistent guys in MLW for sure

Agreed.

But seriously they're remind me a lot of the Ten Rings in Iron Man 3

That is actually not a bad comparison

 

[Canadian Dragon]

didn't know he was in Contra Unit

 

[Daddy Deville]

Simon Grimm should of done the Jack the ripper gimmick

 

[Alexa]

didn't know he was in Contra Unit

Yeah, he has been since they debuted, I believe. His gimmick now with Contra Unit just fits perfectly, and Contra Unit is just a great stable in general honestly.

Also speaking of Contra Unit, does anyone else accidentally call Mads Kruger, Mad Lad Kruger from time to time?

No but I've accidentally said Mads Mikkelson before

 

[Daddy Deville]

I feel like Eddie Kingston would be great in contra

 

[Hoss]

What would a Jack the Ripper gimmick entail exactly?

 

[Alexa]

I would like to see Eddie or even Homicide in Contra Unit as they fit the gimmick perfectly.

Dark serial killer like vibe with a top hat and jacket stuff like that i always thought a jack the ripper style gimmick be intresting

 

[Daddy Deville]

I am guessing you not a fan of it

 

[Hoss]

I don't feel any type of way about it. I like the visual element of a sinister tophat wearing guy with a big mustache lurking around and acting diabolical. Honestly I think I was just being overly literal and wondering how you could do a gimmick based around a person or perhaps even multiple people who were never properly identified. But yeah, like if we're just going off the general vibe of Jack the Ripper as it's been portrayed in media then I feel you.

 

[Alexa]

Could use the name Jack the Crippler instead, and have the same vibe though he wrestles a more brutal style of a Submission Specialist.

 

[Daddy Deville]

Feel like being a crippler might be blacklisted

 

[Alexa]

Fair point

Dave Prazak joins MLW, will spearhead women's division launch

Source: f4wonline.com
MLW is launching a new women's division this summer.

MLW announced on Wednesday that SHIMMER promoter Dave Prazak has joined their office of wrestling operations. Prazak will be spearheading the launch of MLW's women's division.

Prazak founded women's wrestling promotion SHIMMER in 2005.

“During my twenty-five years working in the sport thus far, I’ve had the opportunity to serve in a number of different capacities, for many companies which have focused on different types of professional wrestling," Prazak said.

“It is that variety of styles, and the right mix of different elements which makes me most excited to join the team at Major League Wrestling. I’ve loved the way that MLW has provided its audience with a roster of amazing talent from around world, and I look forward to offering my own contributions to the company going forward. Having focused greatly on the promotion of women’s wrestling over the years, I value the chance to assist some very deserving SHIMMER athletes in receiving opportunities to grow by entering the MLW ranks. The addition of more women to MLW events in the future will only add to the wonderful variety already featured as part of the MLW product.”

MLW previously attempted to launch a women's division in fall 2019.

A new season for MLW will kick off at their Battle Riot tapings this Saturday. The tapings are being held at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and will be headlined by the 40-man Battle Riot match.
