Following the highly-successful preview and relaunch event last February, Manila Wrestling Federation, the country's second wrestling promotion, has taken their fully-pledged resurgence in time for a wrestling-laden week at the Elements at Centris in Quezon City last Sunday evening.
Over hundreds in attendants were treated for some slam-banging action at the history-making MWF 1: Kasaysayan that has been highlighted by its main event match featuring two of MWF's flag-bearers Mr. Lucha and Robin Sane, plus Singapore Pro Wrestling's tag team champion Kenneth 'The Eurasian Dragon' Thexiera and Hong Kong Wrestling Federation and one-time WWE cruiserweight star Ho Ho Lun joining them as their respective tag team partners.
After a somewhat chaotic scuffle, Mr. Lucha and Eurasian Dragon were victorious after Dragon hit the running blockbuster and a Russian legsweep on Ho Ho Lun for the pinfall victory. But the aftermath has made a confusion-looking decision into a more catastrophic scenery inside the venue. Lun pounced on Robin Sane with an array of chair shots until Lucha came out for the save.
Four other matches also took place, and here are the results.:
Fabio Makisig def. Jomar Liwanag (pinfall)
Aldrin Richards and Hanzello Silva def. Ashura and Kyle Sison (pinfall)
Rex Lawin def. Frankie Thurteen (TKO)
Ninja Ryujin def. Morgan Vaughner (pinfall)
Also, an interview segment took place prior to the third match, while the world premier of the film Anytime, Anywhere took place and has sent the latter half of the segment into a wrestling match which protagonists Gigz Stryker and RG eventually won – plus Maria Ozawa appearing out of nowhere for continuation.
Prior to opening the event itself, Commissioner Mike Shannon led the entire MWF roster in paying tribute to their fallen brother thru a ten-count bell salute.
The MWF's first show has full of highlights that positioned themselves as part of the second coming of Pinoy wrestling – with intentions of instilling the discipline of theater as part of the federation's new bloodline and catering themselves as the provider of fun, family-friendly entertainment.
Did MWF lived to its history-making expectations? Safe to say it really is. Not the best show to date, but somehow made a whole world of difference compared to their so-so year [as Smark Henry tells it it more] at Makati Square. And comparing it to the usual-PWR shows, MWF certainly proved their newly-built foundation has stood the difference, backing from their theater discipline and production sets and implementing a film-and-in ring match as one of its segments – all while staging a new sets of storylines and the continuity in majority of its cast.
It still left a historical mark in the current landscape, and MWF's ball certainly keeps rolling from there.
The Verdict: 7.9
