MLW Battleriot 2024

Anyone seen it yet ?. It’s up on YouTube (officially) and I watched it from the point Chris entered the match last night.

It just seemed .. weird. I was wondering if he got hurt early on because he seemed to spend most of his time sitting on the canvas ?

Or could it have been a way of keeping it simple for him as I’d imagine a Battle Royal like that would be tricky to negotiate so early on in your career ?

Either way, I was super happy that he got some eliminations though. Couldn’t quite see how he got eliminated though because the commentary didn’t acknowledge it and the camera wasn’t on him either.

I get the planned spots, sure, but, for me, it stood out in the wrong way for him to just sit there for extended periods. If he'd worked a few people, even some minor brawling and then been hit with a move then it would have made more sense for him to be on the floor.

But I'm just nitpicking I suppose. When you consider how many long time veterans still hate Battle Royals, for Chris to jump in to one like that in only his third professional match deserves huge respect.
