Tom Lawlor vs. Ross Von Erich set for MLW Zero Hour tapings
Tom Lawlor will face off with a Von Erich brother when MLW makes its return to the Dallas area next month.
MLW announced today that Lawlor vs. Ross Von Erich is set for their Zero Hour television tapings in North Richland Hills, Texas on Saturday, January 11. The tapings are taking place at the NYTEX Sports Centre.
The match comes after an angle where Lawlor turned heel against the Von Erichs by costing Ross his match against MLW World Heavyweight Champion Jacob Fatu. That title match aired on MLW Fusion’s Thanksgiving special, with Lawlor hitting Ross with a steel chair and then saying “F*ck CONTRA” and “F*ck the Von Erichs” after.
Ross & Marshall Von Erich are the current MLW Tag Team Champions. They won the titles from The Dynasty (MJF & Richard Holliday) at last month’s Saturday Night SuperFight pay-per-view.
The Zero Hour tapings will also feature a no ropes barbed wire match between Jimmy Havoc and Mance Warner.
