Which Von Erich will fight the former MLW World Heavyweight Champion?
On Thanksgiving, Ross Von Erich challenged Jacob Fatu for the prestigious belt; however, Tom Lawlor – who fought side by side with the Von Erichs in their battles against the CONTRA Unit earlier this year – shocked the wrestling community by turning on Ross and ruining his opportunity to win the MLW World Heavyweight Championship.
It was also revealed that Lawlor was the man who attacked Marshall backstage, thus forcing the MLW Tag Team Champion to back out of his match against Fatu on Thanksgiving. Now, either Ross or Marshall Von Erich will get their chance at revenge during the Opera Cup, as one of the third-generation wrestlers will fight the former MLW World Heavyweight Champion.
