Gotch has been developing a nice MMA hybrid style but still wrestlers like a power guy. Gotch\u2019s strategy was to try and ground the high flying ACH.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>ACH wins with a roll-up out of nowhere after getting almost no offense the entire match.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">WINNER: ACH<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">After the match, Team Filthy attacked ACH in the ring.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Andrea Campo asks Lawyer what happened?

Parrow wins with a huge powerbomb.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">WINNER: Parrow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Colonel Parker shook Parrow\u2019s hand and the two walked backstage.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Andrea Campo was backstage with Salina de la Renta. Campo asked how Pentagon stacks up against the competition. Salina didn&#8217;t answer but instead spotted Strickland and made fun of his promo earlier. She says it\u2019s not his house and that he shouldn&#8217;t get used to the title. Because\u2026 and then she did Pentagon\u2019s Zero Fear hand signal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">An add airs for the July 19th NYW TV taping.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">A Jimmy Havoc promo airs with Havoc standing outside in a grassy field. Havoc says he enjoys fighting Janela. He says he learns new things about himself when he fights Joey and that his name is more than a name. He will bring the Havoc. Joey should bring his towel because there will be blood and Havoc is going to lick it up.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Next week\u2019s main event is Havoc vs. Janela.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">They aired the replay of the Team Filthy beatdown.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Andrea Campo knocks on Team Filthy\u2019s locker room.

He can rise up their ranks and become champion. He said loves ruining peoples day. He wants to be champ because he wants power. MVP only wants to redeem himself for his son. Sami says that is not happening. MVP will have to tell his son he is a failure and was made Callihan\u2019s bitch. Callihan said he is the most hated man in pro wrestling and he&#8217;s only here to be champ so people will have to listen to him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\"><b>(3) Sami Callihan vs. M.V.P.\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span class=\"gmail-s1\">MVP ran into the ring before Sami\u2019s entrance was even finished and started brawling. It quickly turned into a brawl outside the ring. MVP got a nice side slam reversal on the ring apron. Callihan went under the ring at one point but oddly that never played into the match.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Pretty back and forth match with both men getting little-sustained offense. Callihan attempted to introduce the bat into the match and that resulted in a ref bump. MVP hit the playmaker but an unknown large bald man with a big beard came out and side slammed MVP, then put Callihan on top for a 2 count. That same man distracted the ref and Callihan low blowed MVP. Callihan hits the cradle killer for the win.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">WINNER: M.V.P<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Callihan was carried out by this mystery man.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Another replay aired showing the Havoc and Janela brawl from WaleMania and then the replay of the brawl from earlier tonight. Their match next week was previewed. Then they reminded us that Tom Lawler will take on ACH as well.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\">Shane Strickland was interviewed backstage. As he walked into to his locker room, he found some sort of sacrilegious shrine built up inside his locker room. The shrine was made of pictures of him torn in half spread out over skulls with candles and rosaries. Pentagon\u2019s mask logo was in the center of the mirror.<span class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-p1\"><span class=\"gmail-s1\"><strong>FINAL THOUGHTS:<\/strong> That&#8217;s all for this week. Overall I thought it was a good show. They didn\u2019t have many good standout matches but did a good job of building some storylines that hopefully will lead to some good feuds and future matches. Next week\u2019s two announced matches have good potential and the idea of a Pentagon Jr. vs. Shane Strickland title match in the future is very intriguing.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2912589611\"><div id=\"pwtor-1227428782\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>MLW TV REPORT MAY 4, 2018 AIRED ON BE-IN SPORTS NETWORK Commentators: Tony Schiavone and Rich Bocchini They show a replay of the brawl between Jimmy Havoc and Joey Janela at WaleMania.
