Will Satoshi Kojima enter 2025 with the MLW World Heavyweight Championship around his waist?
Major League Wrestling announced today in a press release that Ultimo Guerrero will be the next challenger for Satoshi Kojima’s MLW World Heavyweight Championship on December 5.
The match is part of the beIN SPORTS TV taping portion of the upcoming MLW One-Shot event in New York.
Below is an excerpt from MLW’s press release that explains how this match basically came together:
The match was set in motion after Guerrero called out Kojima in September on social media. Guerrero demanded a shot at Kojima’s title, prompting MLW, CMLL, and Cesar Duran to negotiate the highly anticipated championship clash. That match was originally set for October but was forced to be rescheduled due to the hurricanes that impacted Tampa/St. Petersburg, FL.
Kojima is fueled by pride and honor as he seeks to fight the best from around the world. The only 2-time MLW World Heavyweight Champion in league history, Kojima looks to close out the year with a big title defense against one of Mexico’s all time best.
As of this writing there is no word on when this match is scheduled to air on beIN SPORTS TV.
