MLW Fusion came hard with their season finale in episode 131. Lio Rush put the MLW World Middleweight Championship on the line against Myron Reed in a crackerjack of a contest, and El Jefe of Azteca Underground was revealed in a splendid surprise.
Let’s break down the show.
Combat sports announcer Ray Flores called the action alongside St. Laurent.
Gringo Loco vs. Laredo Kid
Laredo Kid entered with the AAA Cruiserweight Championship that he officially lost to Lio Rush. Laredo refused to acknowledge the result, because he believes Rush tapped out. Footage showed Rush in a leg lock flailing his arms against the mat, however, it was clearly not a tap.
MLW’s season finale of
Fusion is upon us with the rematch of Lio Rush versus Myron Reed for the MLW World Middleweight Championship. There might also be a huge surprise revealed for Lucha Underground fans. Let’s run down all the news and action.
We’ll start with a quick catch-up of MLW activity on
Fusion since
Fusion episode 128 (here) featured three title fights. Richard Holliday retained the Caribbean Championship against Gino Medina via 2008 twisting suplex after Medina collided with an exposed turnbuckle. Los Parks retained the tag titles over the Dirty Blondes when LA Park Jr. used a double low blow so LA Park and Hijo de LA Park could score a double roll-up. The main event saw Alexander Hammerstone regain the gold he never lost. Hammerman conquered Mil Muertes, who had stolen the MLW National Openweight Championship. Nightmare Pendulum was the winning maneuver in this rugged hoss fight. The physical battle left a smile on my face the entire time.
