Lio Rush at MLW in Philly
I noted last week that Lio Rush had tweeted that he was cleared to return to the wring. As I noted, he will be wrestling in England on October 22 in the 2022 British J-Cup. He tweeted yesterday that he’ll be in action in Philadelphia eight days later at MLW Fightland ‘22 at the 2300 Arena (f.k.a. ECW Arena).
Jacob Fatu, a member of the Anoa'i family, will be his opponent. He is the son of Sam Fatu, a.k.a. at Tonga Kid, and the nephew of Rikishi. Jacob Fatu has been Major League Wrestling (MLW) World Heavyweight Champion once and Lio Rush has been the MLW Middleweight Champion.
Turning back the clock, here’s video of Lio Rush’s first professional match in 2014 at MCW against Kai Katana:
