World title status?

[edit]

How can MLW clam the MLW Heavyweight title as a World Championship? the only "pro wrestling organization" that can grant an officially recognized "World Championship" status is pro wrestling illustrated. I have pro wrestling illustrated magazines, but have never seen one mention of the MLW Heavyweight title as a World Championship.

What??? PWI has absolutely NO authorization to declare a World title. They are a magazine, and who the choose to recognize as a World champ is their business, but it has no weight in the wrestling World. MLW claimed World title status cause their title was defended in several countries. Whatever PWI says, means nothing. --DanteAgusta (talk) 02:41, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are you kidding?! "MLW claimed World title status cause their title was defended in several countries" Is that why the belt said World Heavyweight Champion when Shane Douglas first won it? But who cares what a little indie wrestling promotion that died out just after 2 year wants to call its Heavyweight title any ways! "PWI has absolutely NO authorization to declare a World title" That's the funniest thing I have ever read, since they been doing it since the 70's. They obviously didn't care, just like MLW didn't care about authorization to declare what is a World title. But unlike the MLW, WPI has many supporters to include the WWE on what is counted as a World title. Since they see eye to eye on the subject, so I guess it dose have a lot of weight in the wrestling world. Case being: ECW wasn't considered a world title until PWI declared to be. To this day the WWE also didn't considered ECW a world title until the same time period that PWI declared it one. So when it comes down to it, I just like the rest of the non indie wrestling promotion world will go with the word of PWI. They been in the wrestling businesses almost 15 times more then MWL was even open! So whatever MLW said, really means nothing. If it did then they would still be doing shows now wouldn't they?!?!?!

I don't know where you get your facts. But ECW declared their World title status 3 years before PWI came around. WWE first declared World title status in 63, long before PWI came into being. They reestablished their claim to World title status a full year before PWI said they were one. PWI is a magazine, during the late 70's and 80's carried some weight, they lost anything they had when the 90's rolled around and the Internet came about. No promoter in the world cares what PWI says or does, not the WWE, TNA, ROH, NWA, or any independent in the country. It is free publicity is all, nothing more. There is no way to decided who can declare a World title. If a promote says his belt is a World title, and enough people believe it, then there you go. There is no international or US national source that can say who is a World champion. Not PWI, not anyone. Many people considered the MLW a World title, many do not. It is that simple. --DanteAgusta (talk) 02:10, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your rationalizing is a joke. Because I call my self a king, Sure as hell don't make me one. Because you put "World Champion" on a belt dose not make it one. So by you standards I can go out put on some little cheap show, win the title and defend it in Mexico the next week. And now I'm a world champion?! Man I guess you'll see me under the world champion list next week then. Man your right, I been so blind! When I think about Shane Douglas, I think a Former ECW World Champion, Former WWE IC Champion & Former MLW "world" champion. I'm done with this conversation about this unsecsessful & DEAD organization, DO NOT WRITE ME BACK!!! --EHDI5YS (talk) 23:25, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • It does not matter. This site is not for debate on what is a world title. This site is for facts, and the facts are, the promotion called the belt the MLW World Heavyweight Championship. It does not matter if anyone considers it a "World" title or not. --DanteAgusta (talk) 23:32, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Dante, you couldn't have said it better. PWI is not a governing body of professional wrestling. They have granted World title status to some large companies, most of whom have some sort of television deal and are seen world wide. The NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship currently does not have World title status, but for years before they were the gold standard in professional wrestling. Currently only two of WWE's championships have World title status. WWE and the World Heavyweight Championship. They do not consider the ECW title a world title, even though when WWE reactivated the ECW championship it was considered, by WWE, a world title. Again, while PWI does grant world title status to belts they see as worthy, they are not any sort of official governing body and while they have been around for a while and they are widely recognized by some as the definitive body on World title status, there is no one organization that can give or take back world title status, it is all in the opinion of the editor of any magazine at the end of the day.

Roster

[edit]

Any chance of getting their current roster added to the page and that alumni roster being shunted off onto its own page since MLW has its own roster and a weekly TV show now? Damolisher (talk) 09:04, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Championships and Stables.

[edit]

I can't help but feel like those championship tables and list of reigns should be shoved onto their own page like the former personnel were, and I also can't help but feel like we could replace them with the current tag teams and stables in MLW. Just me?

PS, I feel like we need one of those little information navigation box deals like WWE and Impact do featuring links to relevant pages and the like. Damolisher (talk) 09:04, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Based on WP:SPLIT I think the article is too small for a split. - Galatz גאליץשיחה Talk 15:44, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sweet as. Any thoughts on a tag teams and stables section? Damolisher (talk) 20:25, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
