War Chamber AfterMath

At the War Chamber event this weekend we saw it finally happen when former World Champion Jacob Fatu turned on his faction The Contra. Fatu then proceeded to get into a shoving match with former stablemate Madds Krugger. It seems based on these events Fatu has moved to the side of the good guys and will be a top baby face for MLW with Madds getting a bit of a push to take Jacob's old spot in the group. It will be interesting to see Jacob Fatu finally on the good side after spending his entire tenure with MLW on the dark side thus far. 

One of the main things that were on my mind having to do with this event was the finals of the "Opera Cup" which came down to Davey Richards and TJ Perkins. Davey had been sparsely seen in the squared circle since 2018 having basically retired from wrestling before returning to the ring earlier this year. Davey took home the cup and dedicated it to all the fans in Philadelphia on the night. Currently, Davey is one half of PWR Tag Team Champions with long time partner Eddie Edwards. Honestly, I'm happy to see Davey in the midst of his second act getting another chance to do what he's one of the best at and that is wrestle. 

Side notes, the MLW tag team division will be getting some added assistance with The Von Erich's returning to the promotion in the very near future after a bit of a break. As well it seems MLW will be heading to Mexico for tapings next month using Cesar Duran as an explanation for taping TV south of the boarder. However, the promotion will be returning to Philadelphia starting in January on a monthly basis once again.
