4-way AAA Luchadora Eliminator signed for Super Series in Atlanta Sept 18 Who will win a shot at Taya Valkyrie's World Featherweight Title?

(ATLANTA, GA) – Major League Wrestling today announced a AAA luchadores eliminator: Lady Shani vs. Lady Flammer vs. La Hiedra vs. Reina Dorado for MLW: SUPER SERIES'22 presented by MLA from greater Atlanta on Sunday, September 18 at the Space Event Center at 6100 Live Oak Pkwy in Norcross, Georgia 30093. The card is a FUSION TV taping, airing on beIN SPORTS nationwide on cable and dish and in over 60 countries around the world. Purchase tickets at http://www.LuchaTickets.com. The world's grandest lucha libre organization, AAA, is sending FOUR of its top luchadoras to the inter-promotional Super Series'22... and there's a golden carrot for the winner of this 4-way eliminator: the winner will challenge Taya Valkyrie for the Women's World Featherweight Championship! Lady Shani, a 2-time AAA Reina de Reinas Champion claims to be the perfect combo of beauty and violence and she backs it up, not hesitating to use anything not nailed down. Deceptive with her fighting styles, Shani can transition from hardcore brawling to technical wrestling, which makes her a difficult threat to decode.   Lady Flammer, a second generation luchadora from Monterrey, Nuevo León, México is one of Mexico's most promising new luchadoras. At just 22, she has already claimed the mask and hair of several luchadoras. From Tijuana to Monterrey and all points in-between, Lady Flammer has quickly ignited a path of dominance. La Hiedra, competing in AAA since 2015, Hiedra is a staple of the  promotion. Known as "La Nueva Reyna del Escandalo," which translates to The New Queen of Scandal." A part of the famed Chicano Dynasty, Hiedra is quite possibly a favorite to win the eliminator and challenge Taya.  Last but not least there's Reina Dorada, a black belt martial artist with a vicious background in striking, including a deadly roundhouse kick. A BJJ and Tae Kwon Do practitioner, Dorada brings a unique dimension to her fights, often not seen in lucha libre.  Who will have their hand raised in victory and punch their ticket to a title shot against Taya Valkyrie's World Featherweight Championship?  Find out in Atlanta at MLW Super Series'22.  Learn more at: https://mlw.com/superseries22/.

South Central LA's self-proclaimed "chocolate thunder" has set his MLW debut for September 18th in Atlanta in a big bout as two of the west coast's finest rumble. A talented fighter, blending lucha, technical and high-flying, the charismatic Mack has been a standout everywhere he's competed. From claiming IMPACT's X-Division championship to tours of Lucha Libre AAA in Mexico, Willie Mack is a savvy and unpredictable competitor... and he'll need these qualities and his experience when he steps foot into the ring against the "Samoan Werewolf" Fatu. The "Samoan Smashing Machine" has been on a path of destruction, dominating all in recent competition, earning wins over Mads Krugger and Bestia 666 in recent months.  A perennial top ranked fighter in MLW, Fatu welcomes the challenge and unique dimension Willie Mack brings to the ring. The debut puts Willie Mack in the deep end in his first night in MLW.

It will be an Evento Especial as AAA and MLW join forces to present a mixed trios match at Super Series'22.   Gino Medina captains a rudos team with one mission: defeat and destroy Microman.  A thorn in the side of "El Intocable" since January, Microman has reversed Gino's dynastic-like momentum, including the "World's Greatest Wonder" scoring a pinfall over Medina. Consumed by his bitterness and obsessed by ending the popular Microman's meteoric rise in MLW, Medina journeyed to Mexico where for months he sought out the most ruthless, dangerous luchador to join his battle alongside Mini Abismo Negro. Medina would find such a beast in Torreón, Coahuila de Zaragoza. A brute combatant known for his savage, blunt destruction of all in his path, Taurus has is feared throughout Mexico for his barbaric ways. Craving the blood of his adversaries and fascinated by Microman, Taurus has taken up arms in joining Gino Medina's cause. However, this dark trio will be met with resistance as Laredo Kid and Komander have vowed to get Microman's back in this mixed trios collision.  A decorated AAA main eventer, Laredo Kid made his MLW debut in 2019 and nearly won the MLW World Middleweight Title in 2021. Komander, an emerging star in the AAA promotion, is a combination of spectacular speed and innovation. Will Gino Medina end Micromania in MLW? Find out in Atlanta at MLW Super Series'22.  Learn more at: https://mlw.com/superseries22/.

Two master technicians will fight for the first-time ever as the rising star of DRAGONGATE SB KENTo challenges for his first championship in America. Davey Richards has defended the National Openweight Championship against threats from New Japan Pro Wrestling and the NWA and upon hearing of DRAGONGATE's presence in the Super Series, the hunt was on for the "American Wolf" to make it a trifecta with DRAGONGATE.  Determined to defend the National Openweight Title against anyone anywhere, Richards worked with league officials over the past few weeks to lock in a title fight for Super Series. Now that bout is set. Mr. Toru Kido, CEO of DRAGONGATE, has authorized SB KENTo to challenge for the title, with MLW CEO Court Bauer and Cesar Duran signing off on the inter-promotional championship bout this morning. Representing DRAGONGATE and the infamous Z-Brats, SB KENTo  is a former Open The Twin Gate Champion, a two-time Open The Brave Gate Champion and an Open The Triangle Gate Champion. All belts won in a mere 3 year window, made even more impressive given he debuted in 2019. Aligned with Shun Skywalker, KENTo is a technical force, crushing skulls with his brainbuster, “SBK” is also known to end matches with his brilliant bridging straight jacket German suplex and sharpshooter. Will SBK bring gold home to Kobe, Japan? Find out in Atlanta at MLW Super Series'22.  Learn more at: https://mlw.com/superseries22/.

Representing DRAGONGATE and the infamous Z-Brats, Shun Skywalker is a former Open The Dream Gate Champion.

Ric Flair's Last Match

Ric Flair's Last Match

Por Daniel "Mr. Clutch" Mercado Castro

   Thank You Flair! Con una trayectoria de 50 años como luchador, ganador de variedad de campeonatos, el G.O.A.T de la lucha libre, Ric Flair, cuelga sus botas y se despide de los cuadrilateros. Pero será final? Esa es la pregunta que todos se hacen ya que fueron muchos los que pensamos que al perder ante Shawn Michaels en WrestleMania 34 sería su ultima lucha. Pero despues de aquel momento histórico en Orlando, Florida, son varias las veces que el miembro del Salón de la Fama de la WWE se ha trepado a un ring. Si es su ultima lucha o no, pues no lo sé, pero sé que Ric Flair es el mejor luchador que ha pisado este Universo. Flair y su nuero Andrade se apuntaron el triunfo sobre la dupla de Jay Lethal y Jeff Jarrett. Fue una lucha donde Flair estuvo bastante dentro del ring entreteniendo a los presentes, sudó, sangró, y ganó con su clásica Figura 4. El " 4 Horsemen" vacío su tanque dentro del ring al punto que casi no se podía levantar. Lagrímas salieron de sus ojos al final de la lucha y en especial ver los aplausos de compañeros de la industria como Bret Hart, Mick Foley y el Undertaker. Las trampas y el envolver la familia de Flair le dieron pique a la lucha. Flair entró al ring con el tradicional WCW World Heavyweight Championship en su cintura. Duro!

    9 luchas, incluyendo 2 Pre-Show, decoraron la despedida del ex-miembro de Evolution. Los mensajes de figuras de la lucha libre como Sting, Cody Rhodes, Kurt Angle, Trish Stratus, JBL, Nick Aldis, Jim Ross, Dixie Carter, Dolph Ziggler, Booker T, Shawn Michael, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Lex Luger, entre otros, le añadieron sentimiento a la velada luchística. El evento corrío como si fuera uno de Jim Crockett Promotion y contó con luchadores de diferentes empresas como GCW, Impact Wrestling, NJPW, MLW, AEW, y varias independientes más. Bully Ray, Joey Janela, Nick Gage, James Storm, entre otros, participaron en el Bunkhouse Battle Royal del Pre-Show. Una batalla que no se veía desde el 1985 y que entretuvo a los presentes. Janela, Storm, Bully Ray y Mance Warner fueron los ultimos 4 sobrevivientes, con Warner sacando a Ray para ganar la bota de Bronce y la placa para el cinturón. En la otra otra lucha Pre-Show; Ren Narita venció a Yuya Uemura con un Bridge Suplex. Nice Match!

    Una de las mejores luchas de la noche fue el encuentro de ensueño entre The Wolves vs The Motor City Machine Guns. Una lucha llena de movidas combinadas e intercambio de las mismas. Los Machine Guns se apuntaron el triunfo con el Skull and Crossbones. Killer Kross, antes de regresar a WWE, venció a Davey Boy Smith Jr. con el Quickening. Una buena lucha física de pesos pesados. Jonathan Gresham se ganó una oportunidad por el Progress Wrestling World Championship al vencer en una 4-Way Match a Nick Wayne, Alan Angels y Konosuke Takeshita. Tremenda lucha! Representando a los 4 Horseman, Brian Pillman Jr y Brock Anderson, manejados por Arn Anderson, derrotaron a los Rock N' Roll Express (Ricky y Kerry Morton con Robert Gibson) en una lucha entretenida. Anderson aplicó el Gore Buster para lograr el triunfo sobre la combinación de Padre e hijo. Josh Alexander y Jacob Fatu estaban dando una lucha 5 estrellas por el Impact World Championship hasta que Matt Cardona, Mark Sterling y Brian Myers se metieron. Lo mejor fue ver a DDP (Diamond Dallas Page) entrar al ring y aplicarle un Diamond Cutter a Cardona. Espero pronto Josh vs Fatu 2. 

    La mejor lucha de la noche fue el 4-Way entre Rey Fenix, Laredo Kid, Black Taurus y Bandido. Black Taurus se lució y dio la mejor lucha que yo haya visto del mexicano. Los gritos de Fight Forever y This is Awesome se escucharon para aplaudir el luchón que tiraron el cuarteto mexicano. Movida tras movida tras movida que tenían a los presentes al borde de su silla. Rey Fenix se apuntó el triunfo con un Fear Factor modificado. Jordynne Grace demostró su dominio al retener su Impact Knockouts Championship ante Deonna Purrazzo y Rachael Ellering. Sólida lucha femenina donde Grace se apunta el triunfo vía rendició con un Rear Naked Choked a Ellering. Los Briscoes derrotaron a los Von Erichs (Marshall y Ross) en una interesante lucha donde el final llega con un codazo desde las alturas a lo Macho Man. El "Rey" Jerry Lawler estuvo en el camerino apoyando a Jeff Jarrett.
