EJ Nduka turned heel at Battle Riot IV when he confronted Alex Hammerstone, who had just defeated Richard Holliday, about getting the next MLW World Title shot. Nduka proceeded to attack Hammerstone and concluded the attack by putting him through a table. The two went at it again during MLW Super Series which led to MLW announcing on October 6 that they will meet at Fightland ’22 for the title in a Last Man Standing Match.
At MLW Super Series, Dragon Gate star Shun Skywalker defeated Myron Reed to win the MLW World Middleweight Champion. He will be making his first defense of the title at Fightland ’22 against Lince Dorado.
