MZW Forever 2

Table of contents

MZW Forever 2 was a show by Maniac Zone Wrestling, and a follow-up to a show from 2025. Like the previous event it was held in Stacja Międzyrzecka. As the tickets went on sale, MZW informed that the event would be an open-air show - the first such MZW show since Lucha Show in 2016.

Build-up

On 17.05.2026, in a build up to LoW's 5th show, Marco Hammers published a video, visibly parodying Matt Buckna's promo from MZW No Time to Die. In this video, Hammers, wearing a neckbrace and MZW Championship confirmed that he is not cleared to wrestle due to neck injury. However Marco decided to ignore the doctor's orders and continue defending the MZW Championship. He might lose the connection between brain and rest of the body, but that would not be a problem, because he would fight with his body and heart, not with his brains.
MZW began revealing the card on 18.05.2026 with a Chairs Match between Olgierd and Marcelito.
On 26.05.2026 MZW published a video taken after Legacy of Wrestling: Open Season, in which Tony Sheen challenges Marco Hammers for an MZW Championship match, claiming Marco only managed to win the title because Marco's opponent, Gustav Gryffin, was severely weakened after the fight with Sheen.
On 28.05.2026 MZW announced a Battle Royal Match. Although no names were mentioned, the promotion stated that the match will include - among others - rookies from Polish Wrestling Academy.
The Championship match between Sheen and Hammers was officially confirmed on 30.05.2026.
On 5.06.2026 Jakub issued an open challenge for his Legacy of Wrestling European Championship.
The next match, publicised on 10.06.2026, was a Three-Way Match between Disco Pablo, Bartosz Plata and Mutant, in his MZW debut.
The final match to be announced, on 14.06.2026, was Max Speed vs Syriusz Dziedzic. Dziedzic hadn't won a match since Legacy vol. 2, and Speed failed to win the Legacy of Wrestling European Championship at Open Season.

Highlights

Due to uncertain weather conditions the decition was made to move the show indoors. Shortly before the show was to begin a heavy thunderstorm broke out; as a result, the start of the event was delayed by 20 minutes.
Shadow spoke for the first time in many years, appearing as an authority figure to declare the Legacy of Wrestling European Championship Match a Three-Way Match against Sambor and Boro.
Battle Royal elimination order:
1. rookie Marek
2. rookie Adrian
3. rookie Maciej
4. rookie Stefan
5. Sambor & Boro
Before his match, Syriusz Dziedzic urged the crowd to cheer for Sędzia Michał. The match between him and Max Speed saw many slips and trips and at one point, Dziedzic appeared to have injured his knee. This was however a
During the break, Adi entertained the crowd by performing a couple of one-handed cartwheels.
Three-Way Match between Bartosz Plata, Disco Pablo and Mutant was billed as the show's Co-main event.
Marco Hammers reenacted his entrance routine from Legacy of Wrestling: Open Season. Continuing the injury angle, he came out wearing a neck brace, got himself hyped up and removed it before entering the ring. The neckbrace was given to a lucky fan.
Hammers had some fans grab hold of Tony Sheen for a free hit.
Riverman removed the canvas and the foam padding from one corner of the ring exposing the plywood boards underneath, with the intention of slamming Marco on the hard surface. Hammers reversed the move and gave Sheen a taste of his own medicine.
After the match, Riverman returned to the ring and hit Marco with a steel chair to the back. He then followed it by dropping Marco onto the plywood. Sheen took a microphone and declared he will continue to haunt Marco for as long as it is needed to get another title shot. Then he took the championship, and posed with it over prone Hammers, making an emphatic statement.
A couple of medical staff members (who received "NFZ!" chants) came in to check on Marco who couldn't move, his neck injury seemingly renewed from the hard fall. The medical staff then carried Marco backstage.
This was only the second MZW event where Shadow didn't fight (the first one being Champions War in 2015, where his match had to be cancelled at the last minute).
