The headliner for the Nov. 6 MLW event in Philly has been revealed.
MLW has announced that Alex Hammerstone, EJ Nduka, Richard Holliday, and a mystery partner will be taking on CONTRA Unit (Jacob Fatu, Mads Krugger, Josef Samael & Ikuro Kwon) in a War Chamber Match.
What Is The War Chamber?
The War Chamber match is described by MLW as participants being, “locked in a carbon steel chamber with the perimeter of the top fortified with barbed wire, two teams of four will clash in combat that only the War Chamber can contain.”
Here are the rules of the War Chamber match.
- A coin toss determines which team enters first.
- 1-on-1 for 5:00 in stage 1 of the War Chamber.
- The winner of coin toss comes out for 2-on-1.
- Alternating teams have wrestlers enter every 2 minutes.
- Once all combatants are in the War Chamber, victory is won by submission, surrender or pinfall.
History Between MLW World Champion Hammerstone & Jacob Fatu
The Nov. 6 MLW show will be held inside the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, PA. “Your Boy Hammer” clearly has some unfinished business with Jacob Fatu and the rest of CONTRA. Hammerstone ended the 819-day MLW World Heavyweight Title reign of Fatu at FIGHTLAND.
Since Hammerstone is now the MLW World Heavyweight Champion, he was forced to relinquish the National Openweight Title. He held that championship for 866 days.
