CHICAGO –  Two war beasts have unleashed havoc throughout the west coast and now they turn their attention to Major League Wrestling as Jacob Fatu & Josef Samael enter MLW this Saturday night in Chicago at MLW: Intimidation Games.

MLW today announced Jacob Fatu & Josef Samael will be in tag team competition at MLW: Intimidation Games at Cicero Stadium in Chicago. The event will air live on beIN SPORTS on Saturday night March 2nd with a 7pm bell time.

Tickets start at $10 at http://www.MLWTickets.com

With their MLW debut in Philadelphia deemed "too violent for television," Jacob Fatu and Josef Samael look to continue their campaign of chaos this Saturday in Chicago.

Sudden. Brutal. Total destruction. These are words often identified when witnessing Jacob Fatu in and out the ring. A human path of destruction, Fatu represents a new wave of Polynesia pro fighters blending cutting edge wrestling technique with dangerous aerial attacks with a propensity for brawling.  You've seen the rest, now see the best.

Complementing the ferocious Fatu is Josef Samael. Samael has conquered Japan, Puerto Rico and Australia and now he looks to defeat all in his path in Major League Wrestling.  Known for his intensely violent yet effective fighting style, Josef Samael is an unpredictable, but calculated warrior.  A decorated 20-year veteran, he has dominated every continent he's competed on, including winning the NWA World's Heavyweight Championship and the Zero-1 title in Japan.  

A collectively wicked force, these two dealers in violence are destined to send shockwaves throughout MLW and the tag team division.
