That’s serious. There are a lot of factors that go into a wrestling match in order to make it work. Wrestlers are tasked with making the fans care about what they are seeing, while also telling a story and keeping your opponents safe. Most of the time this works out well, but there are times when things go off the rails. That was the case again recently and it got bad in a hurry.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Los Parks (LA Park, LA Park Jr. and El Hijo de LA Park) are no longer with Major League Wrestling (MLW) after they legitimately attacked two wrestlers at the March 31 show. MLW owner Court Bauer has confirmed the story. The three were scheduled to run in on a Jacob Fatu math to set up Park vs. Fatu, with Alex Hammerstone making the save. The trio “went into business for themselves” with real punches and chair shots, causing all three to be fired. Fatu and Hammerstone are both ok after the incident.
Usually doesn’t this happen when Park or his family want to get out of a contract but can’t just walk away? Weren’t they all “sick” and couldn’t show up at another MLW taping the other month? Sounds like there may have been problems with them and Court.

Opinion: This is never something you want to see and firing the three seemed to be the only real option available. The ultimate sin in wrestling is being intentionally unsafe and that is what happened here. What Los Parks did was an assault and two wrestlers got hurt as a result. There is no way around that and they should be gone for a long time as a result of their actions.
What do you think of the situation? What do you think of MLW? Let us know in the comments below.
