Okumura seeks payback against CONTRA Unit’s Ikuro Kwon in high-stakes battle at Cicero Stadium in Chicago
Major League Wrestling (“MLW”) have announced Okumura vs. Ikuro Kwon at the beIN SPORTS TV taping portion of Lucha Apocalypto from Cicero Stadium in Chicago on Saturday, November 9.
Fueled by a need for retribution, Okumura is ready to clash with Kwon after the fierce CONTRA operative joined forces with Minoru Suzuki this past summer to defeat Okumura and his tag team partner, Satoshi Kojima, of the MLW World Tag Team Titles.
Known for his long-standing success in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Okumura has made waves since joining MLW and has brought unparalleled skill and experience as a proud member of CozyMAX, alongside MLW World Heavyweight Champion Satoshi Kojima. But this time, Okumura will be standing alone, driven by vengeance and a deep commitment to get payback in a grudge match that promises to be nothing short of an all-out war.
Ikuro Kwon, a chilling and ruthless solider for CONTRA Unit, has terrorized opponents since resurfacing earlier this year. Known as one of the most enigmatic fighters on the roster, Kwon carries out his mission with fierce precision, fighting not only to defeat but to completely dismantle his opponents. Known for his martial arts expertise and deadly strikes, Kwon embodies the CONTRA ethos, embracing chaos and always leaving destruction in his wake. This November, he returns to defend CONTRA’s dominance, aiming to quash any semblance of resistance from Okumura.
This match will be filmed exclusively for beIN SPORTS and air at a later date.
As a thank you to Chicago fans, the November return will be a special fan appreciation event with tickets starting at $10.
Lucha Apocalypto will feature MLW fighters and CMLL’s grandest luchadores. Matches will be announced at MLW.com.
PLUS: Special Meet & Greets! One night only merch and more!
Tickets start at $10 at www.LuchaTickets.com. Tickets will also be available day of show at the box office unless the event sales out in advance.
