When I saw the announcement I couldn t believe it. I was watching a major interpromotional angle unfold, and one that I never thought I d see at that. A match was announced for the next week, and it would be title vs title. Then two hours later Kenta showed up in AEW and overshadowed it. In what was possibly the worst coincidence in wrestling history in years, MLW announced Laredo Kid vs Lio Rush with both the AAA Cruiserweight and MLW Middleweight Championships on the line on the same night that Kenta crashed AEW to attack Jon Moxley setting up Lance Archer and Moxley vs Kenny Omega and Kenta.
