Rush to make MLW debut against Sammy Guevara
MLW has revealed Rush’s opponent for his first match for the promotion.
It was announced today that CMLL’s Rush will face Sammy Guevara at MLW’s television tapings in Cicero, Illinois on Thursday, November 8. Rush debuting for MLW was first announced during the promotion’s show in Queens, New York earlier this month.
Rush is also scheduled for MLW’s tapings in Miami, Florida on Thursday, December 13 and Friday, December 14.
The Illinois tapings are being called “MLW Fightland.” The event will also feature Tag Team Champions Pentagon Jr. & Fenix defending their titles against LA Park & El Hijo de LA Park and Shane Strickland challenging for Low Ki’s MLW World Championship.
In April, Strickland won a tournament to become the first MLW World Champion since the revival of the promotion. He dropped the title to Low Ki in July and will be getting his rematch at the Illinois tapings.
