Yeah it's only an hour, plus they'll probably add spooky aztec sgements

Ah yeah, those will probably take up plenty of time most weeks.

 

[Chris]

It seems like it's going to just be treated like a separate company or maybe more accurately a brand like in WWE. But idk they really haven't specified I don't think

 

[Hoss]

I just realized today they've been airing a show on Vice. No idea if it's Fusion or just a clip show or what. But, it doesn't seem to be an original program. Which just feels like a huge missed opportunity to me.

 

[Chris]

It's not original programming, I'm not 100% sure what it is either though. Not Underground episodes either. I posted a thread when the deal was first announced

 

[Spitfire]

airing at 3am....ffs

 

[Hoss]

If it was me, that Vice show would be priority number 1

 

[Chris]

I'm pretty sure the plan I originally heard was they'd play clips from past stuff until the new tapings and then the new episodes were supposed to be airing on Vice....well they're on two places tonight and neither are Vice

 

[Hoss]

Make it a new show, maybe try to make it live, at least some weeks?

 

[Chris]

Court probably forgot he had obligations to BeIN Sports, would explain why they originally weren't showing it on YouTube either and he said the Battle Riot was exclusive to them. Musta talked them into it after

 

[Hoss]

Surely more people watch/have access to Vice than beIn Sports which I've only ever heard of in context of MLW

 

[Chris]

I know of beIN sports bc that's how my friend from overseas would watch a lot of Serie A football in college lol he'd always be mad it wasn't on more devices and shit

 

[Chris]

Just double checked and YouTube has it at a 10 p.m. EST premiere still since I'm nervous now lol also 81 people waiting already

 

[Hoss]

Hope the MLW crowd is hot. Idk how many diehards they have.

 

[Chris]

They're at the 2300 arena but yeah idk about the fanbase much either, all the shit I've really watched was without any
