Major League Wrestling has a new middleweight champion as Lio Rush won the strap at MLW Kings of Colosseum.
Rush faced reigning champion Myron Reed at the event. While Reed had a great showing himself, Rush would wind up being too much for the former champion. Rush would hit a frog splash after hitting a slingshot cutter for the win. After the match, Rush called himself the “Moneyweight Champion” and that this success was expected of him stepping inside MLW.

Myron Reed’s title reign ends at an impressive 424 days (at time of air date). Lio Rush is only the fourth titleholder since it was introduced in MLW. It’s also his first title win since the NXT Cruiserweight Championship on October 9, 2019
