“July 3, 2026
Rolling in straight from The Boogie Down Bronx, Vicious Veronica VaRoom made some noise on the Official WOW Podcast repping her city, shouting out her comedy career, and of course roasting some WOW Superheroes along the way. Recently, VaRoom gathered some fast moving Superheroes, Catalina Speed and Brooklyn Love, to form a super charged trio: Full Throttle. VaRoom has led this team to a non-title trios match against the current WOW World Trios Champions Monsters & Metal. VaRoom made it very clear she’s looking for revenge and a full out trios title shot against Chainsaw, Daisy Lane, and Fury in the future.
VaRoom on Fury: “Last time I saw [Fury] she was giving me a little five finger sandwich to the face…bottom of the list, bye!”
Even though VaRoom is relatively new to professional wrestling, contact sports have always been her jam. Growing up, her dad put her in basketball camp and on soccer teams, but she admits she got kicked off of a few teams for starting fights. That spicy attitude stayed with the The Vicious one who served as the jammer, the designated point scorer, on her roller derby team later in life.
VaRoom on roller derby: “I think it really helped me because it gave me the confidence that I needed in the ring…in roller derby you ain’t holding back nothing, like you’re going full speed… there’s no brakes on there… I’m coming in with that hip check hard!”
If it wasn’t obvious by her quick quips, brash roasts, and seasoned mic skills, VaRoom is also an accomplished stand up comic! VaRoom often plays shows at The Ice House Comedy Club, owned by none other than Jeanie Buss’ brother, Johnny Buss!
VaRoom on stand up comedy: “I started doing some roast battles and I’m like damn I’m gonna get paid to talk a bunch of crap!””

🔵 MLW Fusion — June 20, 2026 (Episode 200)

Venue: YouTube premiere Primary sources: Fightful results, MLW.com preview & news

Match 1: Soberano Jr. def. Neon

Soberano Jr. opened the show with a crisp lucha showcase, outpacing Neon and sealing the win to set the tone for the night.

Ed: “Soberano wrestled like gravity was just a suggestion—Neon never quite caught up to the speed.”

Backstage: Matt Riddle & Killer Kross

Riddle told Kross he’d already be MLW World Champion if not for Hammerstone; Kross warned him that Hammerstone is more dangerous than he realizes, foreshadowing bigger collisions to come.

Gordon: “A most ominous caution—when a man like Kross calls someone dangerous, one would be wise to listen.”

Match 2: Scarlett Bordeaux def. Blair Onyx

Scarlett picked up a key win over Blair Onyx, continuing her push as a featured act in MLW’s women’s division and tying into MLW’s own hype about “bringing the Smokeshow” to Fusion 200.

NJPW tease

A brief segment teased MLW‑related news involving New Japan Pro Wrestling, adding another wrinkle to the promotion’s growing network of partnerships.

Match 3: Alex Hammerstone def. Último Guerrero

Hammerstone beat lucha legend Último Guerrero, reinforcing his status as a top‑tier powerhouse and keeping him firmly in the world‑title conversation.

Ed: “Hammerstone looked like a man hauling a boulder uphill—and then throwing it back down on his opponent!”

Shotzi’s Monster Hunt & Krule’s return

Shotzi’s “monster hunt” vignette culminated in her reviving Mads Krule Krügger, adding a horror‑movie edge to Fusion. Later, Hammerstone confronted Riddle and they brawled, further heating up the main‑event scene.

Gordon: “A most theatrical development—yet beneath the spectacle lies a very real threat in Krule.”

MLW National Openweight Championship

Austin Aries def. Blue Panther (c) to win the title

Aries ended Blue Panther’s reign to capture the National Openweight Championship, a major pivot point for Fusion 200 and a centerpiece of MLW’s own coverage that day.

Ed: “Aries didn’t just take the belt—he yanked the whole division onto his timetable.”

Skyscrapers, Shotzi & Krule

The Skyscrapers (Bishop Dyer & Donovan Dijak) confronted Shotzi in her locker room, then later attacked Krule and Shotzi after Krule’s match, only for the Good Brothers (Doc Gallows & Karl Anderson) to make the save—setting up a multi‑team collision course.

Match 4: Zamaya def. Lili Ruiz

Zamaya scored a win over Lili Ruiz, tying into MLW’s recent push of her “Major League Z” branding.

Match 5: Mistico def. Templario

In a featured lucha libre showdown, Mistico defeated Templario, delivering on MLW’s advance hype and giving Fusion 200 a marquee international main event.

Gordon: “A most elegant contest—high risk, high precision, and a decisive victory for Mistico.”

Match 6: Mads Krule Krügger def. Bishop Dyer

Krule beat Bishop Dyer, but the post‑match beatdown by the Skyscrapers and the subsequent Good Brothers save made it clear this rivalry is far from over.

Ed: “That ring looked less like a wrestling match and more like a demolition site by the end of it!”

📰 MLW news & rumors

Fusion 200 milestone: MLW framed this episode as a landmark show, stacking it with title matches and marquee names like Mistico, Hammerstone, Riddle, Kross, and Aries.
Southern Crown Championship: MLW has been teasing the new Southern Crown Championship, with participants revealed and the title positioned as a fresh “road to glory.”
Women’s division focus: Official previews highlighted Scarlett Bordeaux and Zamaya as key figures, signaling a continued investment in women’s wrestling on Fusion.
Cross‑promotional hints: The NJPW tease on Fusion plus MLW’s own site chatter suggest more international crossover on the horizon.

Gordon: “A most expansive direction—new championships, international partnerships, and a deepening women’s roster all point to sustained growth.”

🟣 Women Of Wrestling — WOW Superheroes (June 20, 2026)

WOW status snapshot

Syndicated model: WOW continues to air in a syndicated format across U.S. markets, often on weekend slots, with episodes cycling through ongoing storylines built around superhero personas and clear babyface/heel dynamics.
Roster identity: The promotion leans heavily into character‑driven presentation—masked heroes, comic‑book‑style names, and strong emphasis on empowerment and accessibility for younger fans.
Storytelling style: Feuds are usually straightforward—betrayals, jealous partners, title chases—designed to be easy to follow for casual viewers and families.

Ed: “WOW keeps leaning into that superhero vibe—bright colors, big characters, and stories you can follow in one episode.”

Gordon: “Indeed. A most accessible presentation, yet one that still affords room for athleticism and competitive spirit.”

🧵 Spotlight segment — talking about Airica Demia / Anya Rune

Ed: “Now, partner, before we wrap, there’s a name that keeps popping up in conversations about the women’s scene—Airica Demia, also known as Anya Rune.”

Gordon: “Quite so. A most intriguing performer, particularly within the independent circuit.”

Who she is

Independent presence: Airica Demia/Anya Rune is best understood as a modern indie‑style performer—someone building a reputation through smaller promotions, social media, and character‑driven branding rather than a single national TV platform.
Character work: The “Rune” persona suggests a darker, mystical or occult‑tinged presentation—exactly the kind of identity that can stand out in both traditional indies and superhero‑style environments like WOW.
Upside: Wrestlers in her lane often get noticed for:
- Versatility (working different opponents and styles)
- Look & aura (gear, makeup, entrance)
- Promo presence (short, punchy social clips, character monologues, etc.)

Ed: “She’s the kind of talent where you see one entrance, one promo, and you remember the name—that’s half the battle in this business.”

Gordon: “A most valuable trait. In an era of content saturation, distinctiveness is as critical as technical proficiency.”

How she fits into the broader landscape

In MLW‑style environments, a character like Anya Rune could slot into the more supernatural or edgy corners of the roster—think Krule, Shotzi’s monster‑hunt vibe, or the Smokeshow presentation, but with her own twist.
In WOW‑style environments, the superhero framing gives room for a “dark mage” or “arcane” archetype—perfect for someone whose branding leans into runes, ritual, or mysticism.

Ed: “If the right promotion gives her a spotlight and lets that persona breathe, she could be one of those ‘where did she come from?’ breakout stories.”

Gordon: “Indeed. A most promising prospect, provided opportunity and execution align.”

🎙️ Desk outro

Ed: “So this week, Fusion hits 200 with title changes and monster hunts, WOW keeps building its superhero universe, and names like Mistico, Aries, Shotzi—and yes, Airica Demia—keep shaping what tomorrow’s wrestling landscape might look like.”

Gordon: “Quite. A most fascinating moment in time, where established promotions and emerging talents intersect in ways that may well define the next era of the sport.”

🟦 DESK INTRO

Ed: “Fans, the rings have been rattling from Philadelphia to Los Angeles! MLW came out swinging with a Fusion that shook the standings, and WOW delivered a night of high‑impact heroics that had the crowd roaring!”

“Major League Wrestling announced the return of its flagship series, MLW Fusion. The show has been on hiatus since 2023, but the league will usher in a new era with a special two-hour premiere on Saturday, May 30.

Following the premiere episode, MLW Fusion will air hour-long episodes free every Saturday at 6:05 PM ET on YouTube. Fusion will also air Saturday nights at 10 PM ET on beIN Sports.

“6:05 is sacred ground,” said MLW Founder and CEO Court Bauer. “That time slot belongs to the history of this sport as made famous by legendary Ted Turner. We’re not just bringing back a weekly show — we’re planting our flag and celebrating wrestling’s southern soul. MLW Fusion is back, it’s free, and it’s built for the fans who remember what Saturday night wrestling felt like.”

MLW boasts new roster additions such as Shotzi, Lady Frost, Trevor Lee, Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey, Wolfgang, and Big Damo. Additionally, the league brought in rising names like Brick Savage, Zamaya, and Jay Bishop who join a stacked roster with the likes of MLW World Heavyweight Champion Killer Kross, Matt Riddle, the legendary Mistico, The Good Brothers, and Bishop Dyer.”

Ed: “Killer Kross is wrestling like a man with something to sy — and he’s not taking prisoners!”

“The first major fight of MLW FUSION’s new era is official as Trevor Lee battles Austin Aries in a featured showdown during the special two-hour premiere Saturday, May 30 at 6:05 PM ET free on YouTube and later that night at 10 PM ET on beIN SPORTS.

As Major League Wrestling launches a new era of MLW FUSION, one of the sport’s most anticipated fights is already set for the special two-hour season premiere Saturday, May 30.

In a featured showdown, Trevor Lee collides with Austin Aries in a battle between two dangerous competitors looking to make an immediate statement.

MLW FUSION premieres free on YouTube every Saturday at 6:05 PM ET beginning May 30, with the series also airing nationally later that night at 10 PM ET on beIN SPORTS.

For Trevor Lee, the opening night spotlight represents an opportunity to prove he belongs at the front of MLW’s new wave. Fast, explosive, and fearless, Lee has built a reputation as one of the sport’s most unpredictable athletes, capable of turning a match upside down in an instant.

Standing across from him is Austin Aries, a seasoned veteran with world championship pedigree and a résumé few can rival. Calculated and relentlessly competitive, Aries enters the new season determined to remind the world exactly why he remains one of the most dangerous fighters in the game.

With a new season officially underway, the stakes are already massive. A victory on opening night could launch either man directly into the championship conversation and establish momentum heading into the summer.

Two elite competitors. One huge opportunity. One fight that could steal the entire show.

Don’t miss the special two-hour premiere of MLW FUSION Saturday, May 30 at 6:05 PM ET free at MLW’s YouTube channel, followed by the beIN SPORTS broadcast at 10 PM ET.”

Shotzi vs. Priscilla Kelly set for MLW Fusion

Credit: mlw.com

“Two undefeated wrestlers collide as Shotzi battles Priscilla Kelly in a high-stakes showdown during the special two-hour premiere of MLW FUSION on Saturday, May 30.

The fight for position in MLW’s women’s division intensifies May 30 as two undefeated competitors finally collide on the special two-hour premiere of MLW FUSION.

In a major women’s division showdown, Shotzi Blackheart clashes with Priscilla Kelly in a fight with championship implications written all over it.

The winner will move one step closer to challenging reigning MLW Women’s World Champion Shoko Nakajima.

Shotzi Blackheart enters the new season with momentum and chaos on her side. Wildly unpredictable and impossible to overlook, Shotzi thrives in high-pressure fights and has quickly become one of the most dangerous competitors in the division.

Standing opposite her is Priscilla Kelly, who has carved her own path through MLW with grit, fearlessness, and a relentless drive to prove she belongs at the very top of the women’s division. Kelly has matched Shotzi every step of the way, remaining undefeated while building serious momentum heading into the premiere.

Both women enter the fight undefeated.

Both see championship gold in their future.

But only one can keep their streak alive and move closer toward a collision with “Big Kaiju” Shoko Nakajima.

The road to the MLW Women’s World Championship begins May 30.”

ZAMAYA debuts against Carolina Cruz on MLW FUSION premiere

Credit: mlw.com

“A new force arrives in MLW as ZAMAYA makes her debut against Carolina Cruz during the special two-hour premiere of MLW FUSION.

A new threat enters the women’s division May 30 as ZAMAYA makes her long-awaited MLW debut during the special two-hour premiere of MLW FUSION.

Standing across from her will be Carolina Cruz, who looks to spoil the arrival of one of the division’s most talked-about newcomers.

But if ZAMAYA’s message is any indication, she isn’t coming to MLW to ease into the spotlight.

She’s coming to take over.

Bold, confident, and carrying an undeniable edge, ZAMAYA enters Fusion with momentum and attitude already turning heads before even stepping into an MLW ring. Every debut comes with pressure, but ZAMAYA appears ready for the moment… and ready to make an immediate statement.

Carolina Cruz, however, has no intention of becoming part of someone else’s highlight reel. Cruz has built a reputation for toughness and grit and now has the opportunity to halt the hype before it truly begins.

One wrestler wants to announce a takeover.

The other wants to shut it down before it starts.”

✔ Doc Gallows talks about Festus

Credit: WrestleZone

““I looked into it to make sure that I was safe. And I talked to my trademark lawyer about it, so we’re in the process of that now, just in case. But I hadn’t thought about that in a long time,” Gallows explained. “Machine Gun and I have been going everywhere. [And at] all of these shows and meet and greets and conventions that you do, we were shocked by the amount of people who would ask about Festus.

“Because I didn’t think there was a huge demand to see Festus. I kinda put him—he goes in a certain gimmick category, if you will, without bringing up any other names. But the interest really, really seemed to be there.””

✔ Brick Savage signs multi year deal.

“The 37-year-old Brick Savage was recently seen defeating Mad Dog Connelly at GCW Effy’s Big Gay Brunch 11 on April 18, 2026. At the WWE WrestleMania 42 weekend, he also wrestled in the Clusterf**k match at GCW Joey Janela’s Spring Break. A regular name on the indies, he has also frequently wrestled for promotions such as Revolver, MPX, New Texas Pro, and many more. He is also currently the Mat War Pro Super Openweight Champion.”

✔ Krule releases statement on Berwyn confrontation

Credit: WrestlingHeadlines.com

““Two weeks ago, I prepared a statement to address this situation. Once I had handled some business that needed to be addressed before releasing, I read what I had written. In doing so I felt how disingenuous my original written statement was. Thus, I decided to stop, reassess, and be more open to the public. I am speaking to all of you now not as a character, but as myself.

“During the event, there was an altercation with a fan, whom I had had several incidents with throughout the night, including physically shoving myself during my entrance and another fan who was trying to purchase merchandise after the show. In this moment, I reacted and threw a punch. During that incident, I sustained an injury to my side that once I had returned to the locker room was discovered by staff at Berwyn. I do not know how this injury occurred, only that it occurred during the incident. Staff and wrestlers helped bandage me and tend to the wound. I left and was taken to take a shower and driven to the airport, as I had an early flight the next morning for another booking. I awoke in the airport to calls from my family in tears, “Did you get stabbed?” I had no idea what was happening, then I saw that story had been put out on social media. To be absolutely clear, I never wanted nor asked that this story be represented as fact nor made public. I was contacted by law enforcement, and I fully cooperated with that process. I was asked if I wanted to pursue an investigation | declined. I told the detective I did not believe I was stabbed, but I had probably fallen on something during the altercation.

“I regret not addressing this immediately and allowing misinformation and assumptions to circulate without clarification. I apologize for not negating the claim to the public. I pride myself in blurring the lines of reality, but I understand this was not one those times.

“Now comes the part of all of this I have struggled with most, throwing a punch. I have been angry, remorseful, and every emotion in-between. However, it finally hit me like a brick wall, I was in the wrong. Regardless of the situation and the things that occurred, it was my job to be a professional. In hindsight, many decisions made differently could have changed the situation’s outcome. I could have addressed the situation to management when I knew he was a problem. I could have made the decision not to go sell merch after the show to avoid potential conflict. I could have been a professional and I failed. Thus, I accept full responsibility for everything that occurred. I failed as professional. I have always taken pride in being professional and being a team player with every person I have worked for in my career. I failed and made a bad decision.

“To the wrestlers, fans, and promotions that have been affected by the aftermath of the situation and my bad decision, no words can change what has been done but I do apologize. I have spent more time over these last few weeks hurting emotionally because I hurt each and every one of you. I am sorry. Majority of you don’t know me, the person, only as what I portray as a character, but this incident is not a reflection of who 1 am. I care about professional wrestling more than I’ve shown through this situation. I will reflect that going forward.””
