Major League Wrestling has announced a buzzworthy title bout for its MLW Blood & Thunder taping on January 21.
MLW World Heavyweight Champion Alex Hammerstone will defend his title against Pagano in a Falls Count Anywhere match. This clash comes after Pagano attacked Hammerstone at the end of the inaugural episode of MLW Azteca.
The announcement, courtesy of MLW’s official website, is as follows:
MLW today announced a World Heavyweight Championship bout contested under Falls Count Anywhere Rules as Alex Hammerstone defends against Pagano Friday, January 21 at MLW Blood & Thunder at Gilley’s in Dallas, featuring an MLW Fusion TV taping.
There are consequences for not doing business the right way when it comes to Cesar Duran. The World Heavyweight Champion learned this lesson the hard way.
After the shocking ending of MLW Azteca’s premiere episode where Pagano betrayed his partner as part of Cesar Duran’s diabolical plan, Hammerstone was pummeled and then quickly removed from the arena with his current status unknown.
Meanwhile, Cesar Duran has moved fast to execute a title fight for Dallas featuring death match luchador Pagano challenging Hammerstone for his championship… in a FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH!
The updated card is as follows:
- Falls Count Anywhere Match for the MLW World Heavyweight Championship: Alex Hammerstone (c) vs. Pagano
- 5150 (Danny Rivera & Slice Boogie) (C) vs. The Von Erichs (Marshall & Ross Von Erich) — Texas Tornado Tag Match, MLW World Tag Team Championship
