MLW might have found a new home for their broadcasts.
The promotion posted an interesting video on their YouTube channel today. The title is: “SOME SIGNALS CAN’T BE SILENCED.”
The description reads: “Some things can’t be stopped. They closed the door. We kept fighting.”
The video itself has a message which reads:
“Signal Detected. Some things cannot be stopped. Once denied. Now, destiny demands its due. Transmission arrives soon.”
One suspects this means MLW has landed a TV deal of some kind.
Back in 2021, MLW had deal to air archival programming as it worked on a deal for new programming. MLW stated in an antitrust lawsuit that they believe WWE (Vince McMahon) was not please and after airing one program VICE shut down talks with MLW.
MLW also alleged that WWE did the same thing when it tried to ink a deal with Tubi.
In the suit, MLW accused WWE of:
Interfering with MLW’s television and streaming agreements;
Attempting to prevent competitors from getting media deals;
Interfering with the VICE and Tubi relationships;
Attempting to poach MLW talent;
Using WWE’s media contracts to restrict other wrestling promotions from appearing on certain networks/platforms
In 2023, MLW and WWE settled. The case was dismissed with prejudice. WWE/TKO later disclosed that it paid MLW $20 million to settle the lawsuit.
