History
editThe event's name originated from a 2019 special episode of the promotion's television series, MLW Fusion, called "Jimmy Havoc's Slaughterhouse". The episode, which was taped during The Crash/Major League Wrestling show on October 5, 2019, would air on October 19 on Bein Sports USA.[1]
The first standalone event under the "Slaughterhouse" name took place on October 14, 2023, and was streamed live on FITE (now TrillerTV) as part of a partnership to produce live events for its FITE+ subscription service.[2][3][4]
On July 10, 2024, MLW announced that a second event would take place on October 4, 2024, at The Coliseum in St. Petersburg, Florida, and would stream live on MLW's YouTube channel.[5][6] However, the event was cancelled due to Hurricane Helene.[7] The event's name would be repurposed as a TV special, with matches being taped at Lucha Apocalypto on November 9, 2024.
