Bandido match announced for WrestleCon SuperShow

Bandido vs. Galeno del Mal

One of the world’s best wrestlers has been booked for WrestleMania week in Las Vegas.

WrestleCon announced on social media that ROH World Champion Bandido would be appearing at the Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow on April 16. His opponent: Galeno Del Mal. 

Galeno, a seven-year pro, is a member of lucha libre’s famous Wagner family. (His brother, El Hijo Del Dr. Wagner Jr., debuted on WWE SmackDown on Friday night.) A former GHC National Champion, he has primarily been appearing for Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan lately. 

However, he has also been a regular in WWE-owned AAA. In 2025, he competed against several WWE wrestlers, including El Grande Americano, Cruz Del Toro, and Joaquin Wilde. That makes his matchup with AEW/ROH star Bandido an intriguing one.

Bandido has been ROH champion for nearly a year, having won the title from Chris Jericho last April. In AEW, he is a former Dynamite Diamond Ring winner and also a former World Tag Team Champion with Brody King. 

Bandido finished second behind Konosuke Takeshita for the Most Outstanding Wrestler award in the 2025 Wrestling Observer Newsletter awards. The ROH Championship match between Bandido and Takeshita at Supercard of Honor on July 11 finished second in the Pro Wrestling Match of the Year awards. 

The WrestleCon Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow takes place at 3 p.m. on Thursday, April 16, at the Horseshoe in Las Vegas. The event will stream live on Thriller TV.
