MLW returning to Orlando for Blood & Thunder TV tapings

MLW is returning to Orlando this November.

It was announced today that MLW will be holding a set of television tapings called Blood & Thunder at GILT Nightclub in Orlando, Florida on Saturday, November 9. GILT Nightclub was the home venue for MLW when the promotion relaunched in 2017.

“We’ve been trying to make this happen for more than a year,” MLW CEO Court Bauer told the Orlando Sentinel. “So much of our DNA is anchored in Orlando. The fanbase is incredible, and the longer we were away, the more I thought, ‘We’ve gotta get back.’ So I have a lot of good feelings about returning.”

November 9 is the same day as AEW’s Full Gear pay-per-view, which is taking place in Baltimore, Maryland. The MLW tapings will be in the afternoon, with them starting at 4 p.m. Eastern time.

The Blood & Thunder tapings come a week after MLW’s first-ever PPV. Cicero Stadium in Cicero, Illinois is hosting the Saturday Night SuperFight  PPV on November 2.

Tickets for Blood & Thunder will go on sale next Monday (September 16) at 10 a.m. Eastern time.
