PWInsider has several notes from this past Saturday’s MLW Slaughterhouse event, which aired on Youtube from Long Beach, California.
* MLW officials were happy with the event.
* Matt Riddle vs. Hammerstone and Paul London vs. Austin Aries were given bonuses for having the best matches on the card.
* Speaking of Riddle, his heel turn at the event has been in the works since this summer. MLW thought they didn’t have enoough top heels and felt the audience wanted to boo Riddle. They decided to go with that and turn him heel. It has already hit 1.3 million views on Instagram.
* Their next broadcast is on October 25, while their next live event is on November 20 in Charleston, South Carolina. They will then have an event on January 10 in Dallas.
