Little Guido, also known as Nunzio, is entering the Battle Riot.

Major League Wrestling has announced that the former ECW star will compete in the 40-man match at Battle Riot IV on June 23.

Guido was featured in ECW until the promotion closed in 2001. He went on to work for WWE for several years; he won the WWE Cruiserweight Championship twice. He also wrestled for TNA, and he recently appeared on the April 21 episode of IMPACT Wrestling; he unsuccessfully challenged Matt Cardona for the Digital Media Championship on the April 21 episode.

The official announcement, courtesy of MLW’s official website, is as follows:

Major League Wrestling today announced  Little Guido  as a participant in the 40-wrestler Battle Riot as MLW returns to New York City’s Melrose Ballroom on June 23, featuring an MLW Fusion TV taping.

Mamma mia! Little Guido has entered the Battle Riot!

Fighting in front of his hometown, this Full Blooded Italian is tough as nails and knows a thing or two about extreme environments.

When asked by MLW.com if the technical Italiano will be the last man standing next Thursday, Guido simply said, “Forget about it!”
