Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling debuts in Windsor [Video]

A sold-out crowd of professional wrestling fans in Windsor, Ont. set the stage for the debut edition of Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling (MLP).

MLP is the successor to Maple Leaf Wrestling, the unofficial name of the promotion run by Frank Tunney in Toronto during the 1970s and 1980s.

The promotion is now led by Scott D’Amore, who owns Border City Wrestling (BCW) based in Windsor and previously served as president of Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) before being unexpectedly terminated from the position in February.

D’Amore, who acquired the trademarks for Maple Leaf Wrestling, announced in August he would revive the brand under the name Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling.

MLP Wrestling’s first show under the revived brand is split into a two-night broadcast, streaming live on Triller TV from the St. Clair College classic gym this weekend.
