According to Court Bauer, MLW will go live in 2023.
Over the years, Major League Wrestling has supplied consistent content on a variety of platforms, including YouTube, DAZN, VICE TV, Reelz, and others. The absence of live programming in MLW is a major concern among fans, as events are taped and matches air weeks or months afterwards.
Court Bauer, who was on Busted Open Radio, shared some excellent news about MLW going live.
“The number one thing fans have been asking is, ‘How can I see MLW live?’ That’s been one of the things we’ve been working on since pre-pandemic. It was something we were working on with DAZN, and then DAZN’s whole model changed and they went from attacking US to being more of an international business. Now, we’re finally at that point where we’re pretty deep in our conversations and I can tell you that MLW is going live this year. We’re developing a few tentpoles. We have established some such as War Chamber, Battle Riot, or SuperFight. For us, the next step is adding super cards to a lineup where you can watch live worldwide. We’ve had conversations and have now received bids. We should be announcing something before the summer. Now fans have a chance to not just hear about results and see it a few weeks later on TV. They’ll have a weekly TV show, and they’ll have this unique window to see MLW and see those fights only there. Wherever there is, we’ll be talking about that soon. That’s basically what I’m consumed with now, besides putting together this weekly show, is finishing off this deal. We’re pumped and being able to get into the mix with MLW live is a huge part of our future,”
