MLW announced on Tuesday that a four-way interpromotional World Middleweight Championship bout has been added to the Battle Riot IV card.
Middleweight Champion Myron Reed will defend against Lince Dorado, Arez, and DragonGate’s La Estrella. Dorado and Estrella will both be pulling double duty as they are booked for the Battle Riot match itself.
You can view the official announcement below:
To truly be the greatest of all time, the “Young GOAT” Myron Reed is embarking on an extraordinary gauntlet, competing in a 4-way championship bout next Thursday in New York City.
With challengers representing AAA, MLW and DragonGate, if Reed can vanquish his adversaries, the Louisville native will perhaps forever solidify his standings in the annals of MLW history. But in order to do so, he must overcome:
La Estrella (DragonGate): A former member of Shun Skywalker’s Masquerade stable in DragonGate, La Estrella is one of the promotion’s most promising stars. A cutting edge high-flyer Estrella mixes Japanese wrestling and lucha for a thrilling blend of blistering speed and innovation. Having won the Open The Triangle Gate Championship, La Estrella is no stranger to championships.
Arez (AAA): The king of Strange Style, this luchador is unorthodox and dangerous with his uncanny counters to just about any aerial or grappling attack. But what happens if Arez’s “Strange Sangre” followers interject themself in this bout? It could redefine the championship and bring gold back to Mexico for this standout middleweight.
Lince Dorado (MLW): A luchador with the quickness of a cat… or lynx, Lince has journeyed around the world, learning various fighting styles but also eclipsing all others in this title fight in the experience category. Will Lince pounce his opponents and clinch championship gold?
Below is the updated lineup for MLW’s Battle Riot IV taping at Melrose Ballroom in New York City on June 23:
