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]
