Lucha Apocalypto fires off in a SECOND TIME sold-out Cicero Stadium with none other that Cesar Duran who notes that the whole Duran family is in Chicago to celebrate.
We see Joe Dombrowski on commentary and he has a new mystery analyst to help him call the action. We see a mysterious masked luchador sitting beside him, but the mystery is not for long as TOM LAWLOR reveals himself! Lawlor, who was just fired by MSL, promises to be absolutely “filthy” behind the booth!
MATCH 1
Esfinge & Kevin Knight vs. Último Guerrero & Hechicero
It’s strange bedfellows as Efinge tags with the newest BOMAYE Fight Club member Kevin Knight! Hechicero and Esfinge have quite the rivalry brewing with their last fight being at CMLL 91 and this battle shows it. The momentum goes back and forth before Hechicero gets the W over Esfringe.
WINNERS: Último Guerrero & Hechicero
We see Salina de la Renta backstage who is waiting on “Papa” Duran. With her is her mother and the Azteca baby daddy. As they’re getting ready to celebrate a beautiful night for the family, in comes Jesus Rodriguez who reveals that Cesar has been KIDNAPPED! Salina demands the troops get sent to begin the search!
MATCH 2
Chain Match
Brett Ryan Gosselin vs. Alex Kane
Alex Kane is a ball of energy and as the two fighters get hooked up via the chain, there’s a clear concern on the face of BRG. He certainly didn’t help matters by talking trash on the way to the ring. Kane makes BRG pay big time too and the Rogue Horsemen member gets tossed around rag-doll style! Dire straits are in place for BRG, but lo and behold out come the Rogue Horsemen to thwart Kane’s plans and help a bloody BRG get the victory!
WINNER: Brett Ryan Gosselin
Post-fight, Bobby Fish, Brock and CW Anderson hoist BRG up in what’s clearly a tainted victory that BRG won’t have much recollection of.
CONTRA cuts the feed and we see Mads Krule Krugger who promises the destruction of AKIRA during his Weapons of Mass Destruction match at Slaughterhouse where CONTRA will be running the show! It all takes place Saturday, November 23 for FREE on YouTube!
Joe Dombrowski questions the whereabouts of Cesar Duran and who may have kidnapped “El Jefe.” Lawlor notes that the man has made a lot of enemies, including himself.
MATCH 3
MLW Women’s World Featherweight Championship
Lluvia vs. Persephone vs. Janai Kai (c)
There’s a learning curve for the World Featherweight Champ as she has to adapt to the luchadora style, but Kai shows exactly why she’s THE champ. Persephone and Lluvia aim to double team but Kai scouts it well and isolates Persphone to get the victory and retain the title! Who can stop Kai??
WINNER and STILL MLW World Featherweight Champion: Janai Kai
Post match, out comes Delmi Exo to make clear she plans to kick Kai’s teeth in after what she did to her. She believes it’s CONTRA who kidnapped Cesar Duran! Kai invites her to get into the ring now. Delmi looks ready before a SENTAI Death Squad member comes out, but Exo eliminates him from the equation! She then takes out another soldier with a chair shot before officials hold her back!
We see Salina. She, like Delmi, believes that it is CONTRA who kidnapped Duran.She makes perfectly clear that there will be severe consequences if ‘El Jefe’ is not returned unharmed.
MATCH 4
MLW National Openweight Championship
Falls Count Anywhere
Matthew Justice vs. Bad Dude Tito Escondido (c) (with Jesus Rodriguez)
Tito smashed Justice’s head through a chair during MLW Pit-Fighters and although Justice has his extreme roots, is he really 100% right now? Justice is at a disadvantage with the absence of Fonzie, but he’s all types of focused for this fight. This fight is ALL OVER Cicero Stadium as these two competitors have punishment to unleash. The brawl spills into the crowd several times and they both happene to find themselves brawling under a balcony. Justice gets inventive and gets Tito on the table with cable wire and ties the champ to it. In classic Justice form, he dives onto Tito THROUGH the table: 1-2-3! NEW CHAMP!
WINNER and NEW MLW National Openweight Champion: Matthew Justice
Post-fight, Justice celebrates in pure SGC form: with the title, with the crowd and with a beer in hand!
Dombrowski announces MLW World Champion Satoshi Kojima to the ring. Dombrowski asks ‘The Bread Winner’ when we’ll see him defend his gold against Riddle and before the champ can respond, out comes CONTRA to attack him! The numbers game is clear and Kojima is in major trouble, but thankfully, out comes Riddle! He evens the odds and challenges Kwon and Suzuki to a World Tag Team Title match right now! Suzuki AGREES and the TITLES ARE ON THE LINE!
MATCH 5
MLW World Tag Team Championship
Satoshi Kojima & Matt Riddle vs. CONTRA Unit (c)
This fight is ABSOLUTE CHAOS and matters certainly get out-of-hand when Kwon mists Kojima! Suzuki takes out the referee and it’s a four-way fight! A complete brawl ensues complete with plunder and officials run out to restore order
NO CONTEST
MATCH 6
Atlantis, Atlantis Jr., Star Jr. vs. Barbaro Cavernario, Felino, and Magnus
This sold-out Chicago show is witnessing a historic battle featuring the legends of yesteryear and names of the future. This is a back and forth fight with momentum swinging both ways but it’s the future in Atlantis Jr. getting the W over Felino!
WINNERS: Atlantis, Atlantis Jr., Star Jr.
MATCH 7
AZTECA Tag Match
We look ready for an AZTECA team tag fight, but that is all thrown out with DONOVAN DIJAK comes out and clears house!
NO CONTEST
Post-chaos, Dijak gets on the mic and wants a full-fledged fight with someone, running down a bunch of names. He wants a fighter and sure enough he gets one in FILTHY TOM! Lawlor confronts Dijak and the two get physical but officials manage to corral Dijak to the back! Lawlor certainly has an axe to grind with Dijak and MSL!
It’s main event time!
MAIN EVENT
MLW World Middleweight Championship
Místico (c) vs. Titán vs Averno
This main event is WILD as expected as these three are so familiar with one another’s fight styles. However, it’s Mistico who RETAINS courtesy of his La Mistica submission.
WINNER and STILL MLW World Middleweight Champion: Mistico
Mistico celebrates his big win with the fans but is ATTACKED by Bárbaro Cavernario who UNMASKS the champion! Thankfully, Mistico covers up, but Barbaro challenges Mistico for his championship upcoming in DALLAS! Mistico is clearly fired up and accepts! What a first big match named for 2025!
We cut to Salina as Cesar Duran is found tied up! They free ‘El Jefe’ who is unsure who kidnapped him. He wants vengeance. Suddenly, Salina’s WATER BREAKS. She has to go to the hospital NOW! As she is taken care of, Duran pulls a note out of his pocket and he looks shocked.
