The Manila Wrestling Federation (MWF), the country’s rapidly growing sports entertainment brand, is once again set to delight Pinoy wrestling fans with its annual spectacle ‘MWF: Republika 2023’. This year’s event, to be held at Power Mac Center Spotlight PMCS Blackbox in Circuit Makati on April 30 at 4:30 PM, will feature WWE and ECW legend TAJIRI in the ring with one of MWF’s rising stars, Bro. Jomar Liwanag. Liwanag has entertained the MWF fan community since his wrestling debut in 2017 by portraying his unforgettable comedic-yet-sinister character of a Pinoy religious zealot and cult leader.
Also headlining this year’s MWF: Republika is current MWF Pinoy Wrestling Champion Fabio Makisig, who will defend the unique “Jeepney Belt” against fellow MWF pillar Nigel “Suplex” San Jose. Makisig has faced TAJIRI one-on-one twice in 2019 and scored a win over the Japanese wrestling legend in their second encounter.
A special triple threat showcase is also set to bolster the event’s already high-profile line-up of matches, featuring “Mr. Philippine Wrestling” Jake De Leon and the “Queen of Philippine Wrestling” Crystal, who will face a challenge in the ring from Fil-Japanese wrestler Yappy from Japanese wrestling promotion Ice Ribbon.
Also joining the much-anticipated ‘MWF: Republika 2023’ are fan favorites inccluding El Katipunero with Super P, Aaron Liwanag with Bro. Benny Soriano, CJ Serafin, Danny Zamora, Dabid Ravena, Khayl Sison, Migs Valdez with Frankie Thurteen, Razael, Ken Cifer, St. John Martin, Robin Sane and Main Maxx. Surprise special guests may also appear, alongside newcomers led by Chelsea Marie and Isaiah Valencia.
