Background

edit

On September 27, 2023, Major League Wrestling (MLW) announced a strategic partnership with Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) for crossover events and talent exchanges.[1]

On May 9, 2024, MLW announced its first co-promoted event with CMLL, Lucha Apocalypto, would take place on November 9, 2024, at Cicero Stadium in Cicero, Illinois.[2][3]

Storylines

edit

The card will consist of matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches, with results predetermined by MLW and CMLL's writers. Storylines are played out at MLW and CMLL events, and across both promotions' social media platforms.[4]
