No offense to them since they're fairly good, but who is going to buy this? ROH doesn't sell PPVs with better ratings and being far more well known. Plus AEW will have been on TV for a month.

They are only charging $20, so it could do OK-ish.

Nobody knows for sure but he's been acting weird lately and he has a youtube channel with his girlfriend that's a total train wreck to watch.

Pillman and DBSJ have been getting big pushes without him since he was taken off of TV a while ago.

Without any other details or information, Major League Wrestling announced Friday they have "come to terms on the release of Teddy Hart."

After being part of the company in its first iteration, the 39-year-old returned to MLW as part of their relaunch in 2017 alongside Davey Boy Smith Jr. and Brian Pillman Jr.. He held their tag team titles once and was also their middleweight champion for nearly a year before losing the title to Myron Reed in November.

Hart came under scrutiny in November after he and wrestler Chasyn Rance were mentioned in a now deleted but widely circulated Facebook post regarding the disappearance of Hart's ex-girlfriend Samantha Fiddler. The former wrestling trainee has been missing since the fall of 2016. Hart denied the allegations on Twitter, saying he and Fiddler had gone their separate ways before she moved to Florida where she was last seen.

A Maine indie promotion severed ties with Hart shortly after the allegations were raised. While MLW kept him on the roster, the middleweight title loss to Reed came less than a week after the Facebook post went viral. He did not appear at MLW's Opera Cup TV taping Thursday night.

Teddy Hart was quietly released. It was said to be an accumulation of things dating back to June, including a resistance to him wanting offered help and conduct issues including no-shows and crashing other shows. They had planned a Hart Foundation vs. Contra feud after a fireball angle with Hart scheduled to return in January. He asked for his release just before Thanksgiving, and then retracted the request. Then he asked for a release a second time. Ultimately the company decided on 12/5 to release him. Hart did threaten to show up to the show without being booked and evidently something happened with he and management where there were things said that led to Bauer saying he’d call the police if Hart came to the show because of concerns with what he had been saying. Hart didn’t come. There were on-line allegations regarding Hart relating to the disappearance of a women he once dated, although they had broken up and MLW officials said they talked with authorities who told them Hart was not a person of interest in the case so this wasn’t there issue and didn’t directly play into the release. He had lost his middleweight title to Myron Reed and wasn’t booked on the 12/5 show in New York to sell the fireball angle

With him gone, while there will be an affiliation when needed with Davey Boy Smith Jr. and Brian Pillman Jr., they will be mostly pushed as singles

The Opera Cup, which Stu Hart owned and was donated by Smith and Teddy Hart and the company paid to restore it using Betteridge Jewels of Greenwich, CT, will be used for an annual tournament. Pillman and Richard Holliday look to have been elevated coming off the 12/5 New York show


Jim liking Teddy is always weird to me. He paved the way for the wrestling he hates. He was doing Young Bucks style matches 15 years ago.
