Fatu speaks about the respect the two men have for each other and accepts his challenge.
Alex Kane cut a promo and said the Bomaye Fight Club is going international. He runs down current MLW National Openweight Champion Davey Richards. He proceeds to hype Myron Reed’s title defense against Shun Skywalker in tonight’s main event.
Davey Richards responded to Alex Kane and said he’s been training with someone overseas that Kane will find out about soon enough. Richards says as good as it was to win the National Openweight Championship, he’ll feel even better about winning back the Opera Cup.
