Major League Wrestling (MLW) is making moves to increase its footprint in the pro wrestling space. MLW lost its streaming deal with REELZ once the channel joined Peacock.
NBC Universal owns Peacock, and WWE’s long-standing business relationship with the company meant curtains for MLW on the platform.
Despite the setback, MLW has found a new International home.
