Budd Heavy enters the Battle Riot

The beer guzzling brawler is coming to NYC to riot and defy the odds

MLW have announced Budd Heavy as a participant in the 40-wrestler Battle Riot as MLW returns to New York City’s Melrose Ballroom on June 23, featuring an MLW Fusion TV taping. Limited tickets are available at MLWNYC.com and on Eventbrite.

This entrant is certainly no pint sized pro wrestler with a six pack above the waistline. It’s more like a keg. Promising to bulk up and lean into his low center of gravity, can the beer guzzling brawler defy the odds and make a miracle happen?  Who will outlast, outfight and out riot 39 other wrestlers and earn a title shot against the World Champion? Find out June 23 in the Big Apple at the Melrose Ballroom!

More talent and matches will be announced in the coming weeks ahead at MLW.com.
