MLW Fusion to air on NJPW World starting next week
MLW is heading to NJPW World.
The company announced on Monday that the promotion’s flagship weekly series, MLW Fusion, will air on NJPW’s streaming service starting on June 22. New episodes will drop every Monday at 11 pm ET.
Fusion will continue to air free every Saturday at 6:05 pm ET on YouTube as well as 10 pm ET on beIN Sports in the United States. It will also continue to air on VEEPS, a streaming service that will also be home to MLW’s quarterly live events.
“The last three years of MLW’s alliance with New Japan Pro-Wrestling have been incredibly positive for our wrestlers, our fans, and both organizations,” MLW CEO Court Bauer said in the press release. “Bringing MLW Fusion to NJPW World builds on that momentum, giving fans more world-class wrestling on an exceptional platform. I want to thank Mr. Sugabayashi and the NJPW team for their collaboration, support, and continued friendship. This is a transformative period for professional wrestling, where alliances and friendships are uniting promotions, unlocking exceptional matches, and creating new opportunities for wrestlers, fans, and organizations around the world.”
MLW in, AEW out
NJPW announced last month that AEW programming will be leaving the service for Japanese viewers after August 31, when their contract ends. In the statement, NJPW directed fans to sign up for the MyAEW service, which streams AEW’s pay-per-views and television shows for international viewers.
