Davey Boy Smith Jr. vs. Timothy Thatcher set for MLW tapings
Timothy Thatcher has an opponent for his first MLW show.
Davey Boy Smith Jr. vs. Thatcher has been announced for MLW’s Never Say Never television tapings, which are taking place at the Melrose Ballroom in Queens, New York on Thursday, July 25. MLW is hyping the matchup as a first-time meeting between two wrestlers who are known for their grappling.
It was announced last month that Thatcher would be making his MLW debut at Never Say Never.
Thatcher is a former EVOLVE Champion, holding the title from July 2015 to February 2017. He regularly wrestles for wXw in Germany.
This is the second match announced for Never Say Never. LA Park vs. Jimmy Havoc is also set for the show.
Never Say Never will follow up on Kings of Colosseum and lead into the promotion’s War Chamber tapings. The NYTEX Sports Centre in North Richland Hills, Texas is hosting War Chamber on Saturday, September 7.
