Matt Riddle and Timothy Thatcher are renewing their rivalry in MLW.

It was announced today that Riddle vs. Thatcher will take place at MLW War Chamber 2024 on Friday, March 29. The show is being held at The Coliseum in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Riddle and Thatcher have been opponents dating back to their time in EVOLVE. Their rivalry later carried over into NXT, including Thatcher defeating Riddle in the first-ever Fight Pit match in 2020.

After being released by WWE in September 2023, Riddle returned to MLW this January. He was previously part of MLW’s roster in 2017-2018.

“With his sights set on cleaning out the division and capturing the coveted MLW World Heavyweight Title, Riddle is prepared to confront any obstacle in his path, and Timothy Thatcher is no exception,” MLW wrote.

This is Thatcher’s first match for MLW since July 2023.

War Chamber 2024 will air live on TrillerTV+ on March 29. Here’s what’s been announced for the broadcast so far:

  • War Chamber match: Team MLW (MLW World Heavyweight Champion Satoshi Kojima, Okumura, Matthew Justice & 1 Called Manders) vs. World Titan Federation (Tom Lawlor, Davey Boy Smith Jr., Richard Holliday & Josh Bishop)
  • Matt Riddle vs. Timothy Thatcher
  • Joshi wrestler Unagi Sayaka debuts in MLW

MLW is making its return to Florida for War Chamber 2024.

It was announced today that MLW War Chamber 2024 will take place from the Coliseum in St. Petersburg, Florida on Friday, March 29. The show will stream live on TrillerTV+.

Aside from closed set shows during the pandemic era, this will be MLW’s first event in Florida since 2019. Tickets are going on sale this Friday (January 5) at 10 a.m. Eastern time.

MLW has yet to announce the participants for this year’s War Chamber match. It’s a WarGames-style match where the top of the cage is surrounded by barbed wire. The match has the following rules:

  • A coin toss determines which team enters first.
  • It’s one-on-one for five minutes in stage one.
  • The winner of the coin toss comes out for two-on-one.
  • Alternating teams have wrestlers enter every two minutes.
  • Once all of the wrestlers are in the War Chamber, the match can be won by submission, surrender, or pinfall.

In last year’s War Chamber match, The Calling (Rickey Shane Page, Akira, Delirious & Dr. Cornwallis) defeated Alex Hammerstone & Second Gear Crew (Mance Warner, 1 Called Manders & Matthew Justice).

MLW’s next event is Kings of Colosseum from Philadelphia this Saturday.
