It looks like Major League Wrestling (MLW) is preparing to make a big move on the television front. According to a new report from PWInsider, the promotion is deep in discussions over media rights for a brand-new weekly TV series, signaling one of its most ambitious projects in years.
Sources indicate that MLW executives have been holding meetings in New York and Los Angeles, exploring potential broadcast and streaming partnerships to bring the new series to life. While details remain tightly guarded, the belief is that the talks are focused primarily on the U.S. market.
If negotiations go well, the new series would mark MLW’s first weekly show since “Fusion” wrapped up in December 2023. To get things rolling, the company has already started searching for new backstage interviewers, suggesting that production plans are beginning to take shape behind the scenes.
At the moment, MLW’s U.S. programming airs on beIN Sports, which showcases its monthly specials, with additional live content available on YouTube. Internationally, MLW can be found on StarTimes across Africa and the Wataaa Fight Channel in the Middle East.
Adding to the intrigue, actor O’Shea Jackson Jr. and director Tony Toat were both spotted at the MLW Slaughterhouse event earlier this month — a sighting that’s fueled speculation about possible Hollywood involvement in the new project.
While MLW hasn’t officially announced its new TV home just yet, the buzz around these talks suggests that the company is gearing up for a major return to weekly television — and potentially, a bigger spotlight in the global wrestling landscape.
The wrestling world has been sending love and prayers to WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda after concerning reports surfaced earlier this week — but his family has now issued an official statement to clear the air about his condition.
Former tag team partner Barry Windham sparked confusion on Tuesday when he mentioned that Rotunda had entered hospice care. However, the Rotunda Family has since confirmed that this is not accurate. According to a statement shared by Mika Rotunda on social media Wednesday, Mike is currently in a rehabilitation facility, continuing to recover from a massive heart attack he suffered on September 20.
“My father is not in hospice, but rather in a rehabilitation center,” Mika wrote. “He suffered a massive heart attack on September 20, was in a coma for a week, and spent over a month hospitalized. By the grace of God, he has now transitioned to a rehabilitation center, where our family remains present, hopeful, and focused on his recovery.”
The family’s message also cleared up how the misunderstanding began, explaining that Barry Windham misspoke while answering a question during an interview and did not intend to spread incorrect information.
Despite making progress, Rotunda still faces a long road to recovery. His family emphasized that his trademark strength, work ethic, and athleticism will be crucial in helping him heal, and they asked for privacy as he continues his rehabilitation.
Mike Rotunda — known to WWE fans as Irwin R. Schyster (IRS) — is not only a Hall of Famer but also the patriarch of one of wrestling’s most beloved families. His sons, Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas, both made their marks in WWE, with Dallas currently leading the Wyatt Sicks faction. Sadly, Bray Wyatt passed away in 2023, but his influence continues to be felt across the wrestling world.
The Rotunda family expressed gratitude for the outpouring of love and support from fans and colleagues alike. As Mike continues his recovery journey, the wrestling community remains united in wishing him a full and steady return to health.
WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi is on the road to recovery after undergoing emergency surgery, and he’s expressing nothing but gratitude in the aftermath.
The beloved Samoan legend — father to WWE stars Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, and Solo Sikoa — took to Instagram to update fans on his condition. In an emotional post, Rikishi shared a photo with family and wrote:
“God is amazing. Grateful to be alive. We share blessings today and forever more. I’m proud of my boys (missing few more) #FatuAnoai Stay safe and know there’s more work to do.”
The message immediately drew an outpouring of support from fans and fellow wrestlers alike. His daughter-in-law Naomi, who is expecting her first child with Jimmy Uso, commented on the post with, “😍 my guys 🙏,” showing love and relief for the family’s patriarch.
While Rikishi didn’t share specifics about the nature of the emergency, he confirmed that he’ll be missing several upcoming appearances as he focuses on rest and recovery.
Rikishi — real name Solofa Fatu Jr. — was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015, celebrated for his charisma, larger-than-life personality, and unforgettable moments in the ring, from dancing with Too Cool to delivering his signature Stink Face. Beyond WWE, he’s also the co-owner of Knokx Pro Wrestling Academy, where he continues to mentor the next generation of wrestlers.
The wrestling community has flooded social media with messages of encouragement, wishing Rikishi a full and speedy recovery. As he said himself — there’s still “more work to do.”
Everyone at Wrestling News Blog sends best wishes to Rikishi and the entire Fatu/Anoa’i family during this time.
After a weekend full of cryptic teasers that had fans buzzing online, WWE has officially released the complete WrestleMania 42 promotional video — and it’s every bit as cinematic as fans expected.
The long-awaited reveal premiered earlier today on The Pat McAfee Show, confirming that the hype surrounding WWE’s social media hints was all building toward this year’s “Show of Shows.” The teasers began late last week, with short, mysterious clips that left the WWE Universe speculating wildly. Things came into focus on RAW, when a poker chip marked “2026” all but confirmed that WrestleMania season talk had begun early.
The full video leans heavily into the Las Vegas theme — fitting, since WrestleMania 42 will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, on April 18 and 19, 2026. In the spot, Triple H and Paul Heyman oversee a high-stakes poker game featuring Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Brock Lesnar. Each Superstar goes “all in,” as Triple H narrates about the art of reading moments and tells — a perfect metaphor for the gamble of WrestleMania itself.
This marks WWE’s first official promotional rollout for WrestleMania 42 and sets the tone for what looks to be a massive event. It also highlights WWE’s evolving media partnerships: fans in the U.S. will be able to stream the two-night extravaganza on the ESPN App, while Netflix will broadcast it to international audiences.
Tickets are already available, with two-day combo packages now on sale via Ticketmaster. If this early teaser is any indication, WWE is betting big on WrestleMania 42 being one of the most must-see events in company history — and Las Vegas seems like the perfect stage to go “all in.”
Where the greatest Superstars step onto the grandest stage. In Las @Vegas… it’s anyone’s game. 🎰
The wrestling world is once again rallying around the Rotunda family as heartbreaking news emerges about WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda, father of the late Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas (Uncle Howdy).
According to a post shared Tuesday morning by former WWE star Leilani Kai, Rotunda has reportedly been placed in hospice care. Kai shared a touching photo of herself with Rotunda, writing that she would “treasure it forever” and asking fans to keep him and his family in their prayers.
It breaks my heart to share that my friend Mike Rotunda has been placed under hospice care. 💔 This photo was from earlier this year — a moment I’ll treasure. Please keep Mike and the Rotunda family in your prayers. We love you, Mike. ❤️ #WrestlingFamilypic.twitter.com/XsgOaVtE0J
Kai’s post follows comments made earlier in the day by Rotunda’s brother-in-law and longtime tag team partner Barry Windham, who spoke briefly about Rotunda’s health during an interview with Bill Apter. While Windham didn’t go into specifics, he called the situation a tragedy — particularly so soon after the passing of Rotunda’s son, Windham “Bray Wyatt” Rotunda, who died suddenly in 2023 at just 37 years old.
For decades, Mike Rotunda was a respected presence both in and out of the ring. A versatile performer, he found success across multiple promotions and eras — first as one half of The U.S. Express with Windham, later as part of The Varsity Club alongside “Dr. Death” Steve Williams, and of course, as the calculating Irwin R. Schyster (I.R.S.) during WWE’s golden era of character-driven wrestling. Rotunda even had a brief run as part of the nWo during the mid-90s boom.
In 2024, Rotunda was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame alongside Windham, solidifying his legacy as one of wrestling’s most consistent and dependable performers.
The wrestling community continues to send love and strength to the Rotunda family during this difficult time. Fans around the world have taken to social media to share memories and messages of support, celebrating the impact that both Mike and his late son Bray had on the industry.
