Get ready for an explosive wrestling event that will shake the foundations of the wrestling world!
This week, the AEW wrestlers are stepping into the ring of CMLL, and it's going to be a battle like no other. Imagine a black Friday like no other, with the Death Riders ready to make their mark on Arena Mexico.
In the heavyweight division, Gran Guerrero, the current CMLL World Heavyweight Champion, has issued a bold challenge to the AEW crew. El Hermanito Chulo, with his signature pizzazz, dared the AEW talent to step up and prove their worth. And boy, did they answer!
But here's where it gets controversial... Claudio Castagnoli, a true force to be reckoned with, has accepted the challenge. Gran Guerrero has held onto his title for an impressive 1,114 days, but Claudio is determined to dethrone him. Will he succeed? Only time will tell.
And that's not all! Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia, a dynamic duo, have earned a shot at the CMLL World Tag Team Championship. They'll be facing the formidable team of Angel de Oro and Niebla Roja, who have been champions for an astonishing 1,402 days and counting. But wait, there's more! These champions recently added another title to their collection, the NJPW Strong Openweight Tag Team Championship. Talk about a tough challenge!
The main event of the evening, the Torneo Leyenda Azul final, promises to be a spectacle. Mistico, Soberano Jr., and Barbaro Cavernario will battle it out in a triangular match to determine the ultimate winner. This annual tournament pays tribute to the legendary Blue Demon, and last year, Mistico emerged victorious. Who will claim the title this time around?
