Welcome to the first MLW: Fusion review here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and I say we should get right to the action!

I’m Nathan Favel and welcome to my first Impact Wrestling review for Nerdly. As I recently spoke of in my “Opinionated” column concerning the former TNA Wrestling, I have a genuine interest in seeing this company succeed, even if that is just as a good old wrestling fan.

Splatoon 2’s single-player campaign was an enjoyable showcase for the series’ unique art style and paint-swimming mechanics, although at times it did feel like an extended tutorial for the multiplayer main draw.
