Tag Team title match set for MLW Superfight
A Tag Team title match has been confirmed for next month’s MLW television tapings in Philadelphia.
MLW Tag Team Champions Pentagon Jr. & Fenix will defend their titles against two members of The Hart Foundation (Teddy Hart, Davey Boy Smith Jr. & Brian Pillman Jr.) at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Saturday, February 2. The event is being called “MLW Superfight.”
The Hart Foundation were supposed to challenge for Pentagon & Fenix’s titles last month, but Fenix had to miss MLW’s December tapings in Miami due to a groin injury.
MLW announced on Wednesday that Davey Boy Smith Jr. has signed a multi-year deal with them. It was noted that he’ll still be wrestling for NJPW. Teddy Hart defeated Dezmond Xavier, Hijo de LA Park, Kotto Brazil, and Gringo Loco in a ladder match to become MLW Middleweight Champion last month.
As was previously announced, MLW World Heavyweight Champion Low Ki will defend his title against Tom Lawlor at Superfight.
