MLW Battle Riot is an annual major event produced by Major League Wrestling that was first held in 2018. The centerpiece of the show is the Battle Riot match itself, which combines elements of a battle royal, the Royal Rumble concept, and hardcore wrestling rules. Multiple wrestlers enter the ring at timed intervals, while eliminations can occur through pinfall, submission, or being thrown over the top rope. The event is known for surprise appearances, chaotic action, and an unpredictable atmosphere. Battle Riot is often used to elevate new stars and advance major MLW storylines. Today, it is considered one of the promotion’s most recognizable and important events.
