Notes on Matt Hardy, Priscilla Kelly, Kris Statlander, and Brian Pillman Jr.
– Kris Statlander recently spoke with Alicia Atout and discussed how she felt after signing with AEW, and how WWE was also interested in her.
On how she felt after signing with AEW:
“There’s a lot of thoughts going through my mind because the whole thing with WWE was interested in me also, so there’s a lot of stress with me because I didn’t know what I was going to do, I didn’t know what was the right choice. And you would think that it’s a dream come true for anybody to be offered a contract, but for me, getting signed was never an actual, legit goal of mine in wrestling, so I was like, ‘Oh, am I going to be happy, is this going to be something I want to do?’ So I was very nervous, I was very stressed about it, but I am thoroughly enjoying all my time I’ve been with AEW and all the opportunities they’ve given me so far and I have no regrets about it. So all is well.”

– Brian Pillman Jr versus Jimmy Havoc Set for MLW’s Philly Show on February 1st
Major League Wrestling (MLW) has announced that Brian Pillman will face Jimmy Havoc for the first time at the upcoming MLW card on February 1 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You can check out the full announcement below.
BRIAN PILLMAN VS JIMMY HAVOC: FIRST-TIME EVER | FEB 1 IN PHILLY
Jimmy Havoc. Brian Pillman. First. Time. Ever.
MLW today announced Brian Pillman Jr. vs. Jimmy Havoc (with Priscilla Kelly) for MLW: FIGHTLAND at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia on Saturday February 1. The event will be a MLW FUSION TV taping for beIN SPORTS.
Tickets start at $15 at: www.MLW2300.com.
Brian Pillman Jr. has made the move to the middleweight division, effective immediately. With the intention of climbing the rankings and challenging for the World Middleweight Championship, Pillman has high hopes for winning his first singles title in the league.
Standing in his way on the road to a title match: Jimmy Havoc and Priscilla Kelly.
A vicious and cunning duo, Havoc and Priscilla have a history of violence in the league dating back nearly two years when this unholy union first united.
A sinister force looking to put a reckoning on the division and challenge for the title himself, Havoc thrives on the misery of others.
With Pillman entering the 205 pound and under division, league officials quickly moved to make this match, arguably one of the biggest bouts within the middleweight division.
With both men jockeying to fast track a title bout, this match has championship implications.
Great Britain’s top ranked middleweight poses a challenge for Pillman, with Priscilla Kelly a wildcard in every encounter, Pillman will have to remain vigilant and mindful of outside forces ringside… including the trio known as Injustice.
What happens when the Rogue Prince tangles with England’s Most Dangerous Man?
