Battle Riot IV is an ongoing professional wrestling event produced by Major League Wrestling (MLW) that take place on June 23, 2022 at the Melrose Ballroom in New York City. It is the fourth event under the Battle Riot chronology.

Production

Background

Battle Riot is a recurring event that was established by MLW in 2018. The event is named after the Battle Riot match, a multi-competitor match type in which wrestlers are eliminated until one is left and declared winner. The match begins with a number of participants in the ring, who are then eliminated by either pin, submission, or going over the top rope and having both feet touch the venue floor. The declared winner of the Battle Riot match receives a future title shot for the MLW World Heavyweight Championship. On March 19, 2022, it was announced that Battle Riot IV would take place on June 23, 2022 at the Melrose Ballroom in New York City.[1][2]

Storylines

The show feature several professional wrestling matches that resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3]

The main feature of the event is the titular Battle Riot match, a 40-man rumble rules-based match where the winner will receive a "golden ticket", which they can redeem for an MLW World Heavyweight Championship match anytime and anywhere.

Through MLW's "Open Door Policy", several free agents will be announced for the event. Scarlett Bordeaux was announced on June 2.[4] On June 13, Dragon Gate's La Estrella was announced as a participant in the Battle Riot.[5]
