PpW x Mystic Festival - More Brutal Than Metal 2

Table of contents

More Brutal Than Metal 2 was a three-day show accompanying Mystic Festival 2026 in Gdańsk that took place in the historical Gdańsk Shipyard, in the festival's Chill Out Zone. A follow-up to the last year's edition, this event expanded on the formula by covering three days of the festival, with fights scheduled hourly between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM in two-match segments, each around 30 minutes.

Build-up

The only match announced (on 3.06.2026) for the show was a Special Trios Tag Team Match between the current PpW Tag Team Champions Bad Trip (Gustav Gryffin & Goblin) + Gabriel Queen vs the former Champions Zmowa (Jakub, Olgierd & Mister Z). Despite the Championship belt being featured on the announcement image, the fight itself was not billed as a Championship match.

Recap

The show was initially advertised as a four-day event, however this turned out to be a mistake on the organiser's part.
Keeping with the theme of the festival, each day featured a match between wrestlers representing different genres of metal music.
It rained throughout the second day of the show, causing a delay; as a result the first segment only consisted of one match (the Special Trios Tag Team Match).
PpW played along with the weather and incorporated it into the show: Olgierd came out wearing a raincoat and swimming goggles, Jakub carried an umbrella, Jacob Crane had a concealed water pistol, and everybody kept slipping on the wet ring.
The Lumberjack Match between Jacob Crane and Gustav Gryffin was stopped by Sędzia Seweryn when the lumberjacks started brawling among themselves. The referee then made the match a Battle Royal, with everyone taking part.
Battle Royal elimination order:
1. "Szeku" Martynka eliminates Monster High Zuza
2. Leon Lato eliminates Sambor
3. Mutant eliminates "Szeku" Martynka
4. Antoni Ocean eliminates Jakub
5. Mutant eliminates Antoni Ocean
6. Mister Z eliminates Mutant
7. Bartosz Plata eliminates Mister Z
8. Bartosz Plata eliminates Sentinel
9. Jacob Crane eliminates Leon Lato
10. Gustav Gryffin eliminates Bartosz Plata
11. Jacob Crane eliminates Gustav Gryffin
Bartosz Plata threw Antoni Ocean out of the ring, but Ocean made a save by landing on the railing. He returned to the ring, only to be promptly eliminated by Mutant.
This was the fifth and final edition of Mystic Festival to be held at the Gdańsk Shipyard.
