A match that could see two exciting prospects climb the middleweight ladder has just been added.
Lucha Underground wrestler Rey Horus – who plays Dragon Azteca Jr. in the company – made a big splash in his debut with Major League Wrestling last year. The Lucha Libre wrestler returned to the promotion earlier this year and vowed to win gold in MLW in 2019.
Standing in his way to move up the ladder is Ace Austin, a man who’s been fighting to be the next middleweight champion, but has had to deal with several setbacks such as Rich Swann. Now that Swann is out of the picture, Austin’s goal to being the next contender has re-ignited; however, he must get through Rey Horus to get one step closer to a title shot that has eluded his grasp thus far.
MLW has announced Rey Horus vs. Ace Austin for MLW’s April 4th (Rise of the Renegades) event at the Melrose Ballroom. Tickets to witness the event live in New York start at $20 at
