If you haven’t been keeping up with MLW Fusion, don’t sweat it because we’re racing to MLW Fusion #105—the MLW vs. AAA Super Show! The major stories in Major League Wrestling include Mance Warner and his allies taking on Dynasty, The Von Erichs and Davey Boy Smith Jr facing Team Filthy, and Brian Pillman Jr’s feud with Injustice. Those are the big stories for the next few episodes.
Here’s the card for the episode:
MLW Fusion #102
Zenshi vs. El Lindaman
Richard Holliday vs. X
8-Man Tag Match: Davey Boy Smith Jr, Killer Kross, & The Von Erichs vs. Team Filthy (Tom Lawlor, Erick Stevens, Dominic Garrini, & Kit Osbourne)
MLW Fusion #102 kicks off with the news that MJF is banned from the arena after ambushing Ol’ Mancer. Major League Wrestling is very free with the suspensions and bans. Let’s get into some in-ring action.
Zenshi vs. El Lindaman
MLW’s Zenshi is up against OWE’s El Lindaman. Even bout with Zenshi trying to keep the pace fast and in his favor. Lindaman can play that game but also has some power to him—as we see by Lindaman suplexing Zenshi all over. Zenshi also had to deal with Lindaman’s ground game which was used to target his bad arm. He would fall to a Tiger Suplex in quick fashion.

Major League Wrestling Presents HYPE CENTRAL
We get a babyface promo from DBS Jr and The Von Erichs. Killer Kross is here as well and also has something to say about Team Filthy. This team is ready for Team Filthy and their nonsense. Mance Warner talks about facing MJF after getting attacked by him at the PAY WINDOW.
Backstage, Richard Holliday is talking with an interviewer about Mance’s mystery opponent for him. He’s not too concerned and told Ol’ Mancer to bring on anyone: Kwang (Savio Vega) or the ghost of Carlos Colon—who isn’t dead. He also said that Savio’s Caribbean title is at the cleaners. Apparently, he’s ready for whatever Mance has in store for him.
There’s a message from Contra Unit but since Jacob Fatu isn’t really feuding with anyone ehhh…skip. Contra Unit should be more involved in what’s going on in Major League Wrestling since their guy is the World Champion but whatever. Richard Holliday is back via phone video and he tells us again that he’s ready for Mancer’s mystery opponent for him.
He comes out for his match and is followed by Ol’ Mancer with his case of beers—he even has a beer in an MLW cozy! His special opponent for Holliday is—the Blue Meanie! It makes sense since this show was from the old ECW Arena. Ol’ Mancer is also guest commentator for this bout.
Richard Holliday vs. Blue Meanie
The crowd is automatically for Meanie and against Holliday, as expected. Holliday halts to match because he wants to do the Meanie dance as well. Blue Meanie obliges and teaches Holliday how to do it only to be attacked from behind.
The match really all Holliday until he decides to go outside and harass Mance at the commentary desk. He asks for a beer and pours it out in front of the Southern Psycho. Well, you don’t waste his light beers, folks.
While Major League Wrestling has a 20 count, Holliday ate most of it up. He’s pulled from the apron by Mance and catches a mist of beer for his troubles! The bell sounds and Holliday has lost this one by count out. After the match, Mance and Meanie have a couple of light beers.

Here Are More Promos
Injustice has issues with Major League Wrestling bringing in international stars when they “have three stars here.” The PWI top ten is listed but here’s the top five: Brian Pillman Jr, Tom Lawlor, Davey Boy Smith Jr, Myron Reed the World Middleweight champion, and Alexander Hammerstone, the National Openweight champion is el numero uno.
“The Lone Wolf of Brooklyn” Low Ki has some words for King Mo—and King Mo has words for Low Ki. He called Low Ki a midget who got bodyslammed. His manager Dan Lambert insists that Low Ki has a corner man.
And now for the featured attraction of MLW’s brick of promos: L.A Park. Joined by his son Hijo de L.A Park, his promos have been top tier trash talking—and he’s not even involved in a program. He’s just in Major League Wrestling to beat up people! This time, it’s cooking with L.A Park as he makes chorizo con huevos—sausage and eggs.
I really recommend that you check this promo out. It’s not a 20 minute “best in the world” thing but it plays off of L.A Park and his son’s appearance on a cooking show with chef Tony Cabrera. Anyway, the cooking lesson ends as L.A Park—known to be a bit bossy—gets upset at MLW not giving them everything for their sausage and eggs, so he storms off.
Before the main event, Tom Lawlor—with Team Filthy in tow—trashes the Philadelphia fans.
8-Man Tag Match: Davey Boy Smith Jr, Killer Kross, & The Von Erichs vs. Team Filthy
This match was going to start off as a brawl regardless. Team Filthy had been running its mouth and attacking anyone associated with The Von Erichs so everyone let the fists fly before this thing got in the ring. Overall, this was a solid match.
Things could’ve turned in Team Filthy’s favor after Kit Osbourne used the chair on DBS Jr but Marshall Von Erich caught him with the Iron Claw! He then plants him with a stiff-looking Claw Slam before scattering him with a very nice moonsault. I have it rated between a hard Vader to a soft Cody as far as primo moonsaults go. Team Von Erichs pick up the win.

After the match, DBS Jr puts Kit Osbourne through a wooden board with a powerbomb! Team Filthy attacks Von Erich and Company, leading to a brawl that goes backstage. King Mo comes out of nowhere with a bat and cracks Killer Kross across the back! Vulgar!
Match of the Show: In The Kitchen With L.A Park
It was a promo so maybe “Segment of the Show” is more accurate but this brief promo was the one piece of pure gold on this show. Let’s look at the card for MLW Fusion #103.
MLW Fusion #103: Low Ki vs. King Mo
MLW National Openweight Title: Alexander Hammerstone [c] vs. T-Hawk
King of the Knockouts: Low Ki vs. King Mo
