MLW Kings of Colosseum set for May in Philadelphia

MLW’s yearly Kings of Colosseum event will head to the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Friday, May 13th.

Per usual, it will be a TV taping for MLW Fusion: Alpha.

A majority of their roster will be on the show which includes MLW Champion Alexander Hammerstone, Tag Team Champions 5150, National Openweight Champion Alex Kane, Jacob Fatu, Davey Richards, Aramis, Arez and more.

As of now, this will be the fourth MLW event of the calendar year. After running Dallas in January for the themed Blood & Thunder show, they head to Charlotte on Saturday, February 26th for SuperFight, and Dallas again on Thursday, March 31st of WrestleMania weekend for Intimidation Games.

This will be the third Kings of Colosseum show in MLW history as it initially debuted in 2019 in Cicero, Illinois, headlined by Fatu defeating Tom Lawlor for the MLW title. After skipping 2020, it returned in front of an empty arena in 2021, highlighted by Lio Rush winning the Middleweight title from Myron Reed.
