You were there when I became World Champion. You were there when I won the Opera Cup.

It was told to me in the back that I should dedicate this to someone special to me, but being Davey Richards, I don’t really follow the script. This one is for Philadelphia. You were there through thick and thin. I will step in this ring and give you every cent you pay.

Next week the MLW Tag Team Championships will be defended in a Philly Street Fight. Matt Cross will face NZO. World Champion Alex Hammerstone will also be in action.
