MLW Fusion returning, future on REELZ uncertain still

[Chris]

After several months away, new MLW content will return to beIN Sports and YouTube next month.

On a graphic displayed on Tuesday's season finale of MLW Underground on Reelz, it was announced that Fusion will return to its former broadcast homes on Thursday, May 25th.



Several weeks ago, MLW announced Fusion would return but didn't provide any details at the time. After MLW Underground debuted on Reelz earlier this year, new episodes of Fusion, Fusion: Alpha and MLW Azteca ceased on beIN and YouTube in February without any mention as to why.

Reelz releases statement on MLW future

Speaking of Reelz, the network released a statement to PWInsider Wednesday regarding their future with MLW that didn't give any real idea as to what their future together may hold.

A spokesperson said, "Season 1 has ended and we are continuing talks for season 2."

MLW content on Reelz has to be blacked out when airing on Peacock due to WWE's exclusive partnership with the NBCUniversal-owned streaming service -- something that was mentioned in MLW's revamped ongoing lawsuit against WWE.

In March, there was confusion as to the future of the MLW/Reelz relationship following a statement released to Variety that indicated MLW would be done airing there after this month. Both MLW and Reelz denied releasing the statement.
