Von Erichs & Aramis added to Battle Riot III
40 wrestlers will riot July 10 in Philadelphia
The Von Erichs and Aramis have been added to MLW’s Battle Riot on Saturday, July 10th in Philadelphia at the 2300 Arena.
Limited tickets are available at: www.MLW2300.com.
Ross Von Erich: Returning from his second excursion to Japan to learn from the legendary Keiji “Great Muta” Muto, Ross Von Erich looks to showcase his new techniques in the most unpredictable and grueling matches in MLW.
Marshall Von Erich: Promising a reckoning is coming for Tom Lawlor and Team Filthy, Marshall looks to unleash the claw on all members of Team Filthy. The x-factor for the Von Erichs and Team Filthy: what condition will they be in coming out of their Bunkhouse Brawl earlier that night?
Aramis: A brilliant luchador, Aramis vows to thrive in the chaos that is the 40-wrestler match. Aramis will need to use his speed and aerial attacks to outlast his adversaries. Winning the Battle Riot would instantly fast-track Aramis to the top. Will the Azteca Underground luchador make the loudest statement one can make in their debut?
