MLW’s Fury Road premium live event just got even more exciting with the addition of a highly-anticipated match between Tony Deppen and NJPW superstar KUSHIDA. This announcement comes as MLW prepares to kick off their crossover with New Japan Pro Wrestling. Wrestling fans are in for a treat as these two talented athletes face off on Sunday, September 3 at Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena.
The news of this match was revealed on the latest episode of FUSION, and it has already generated a lot of buzz within the wrestling community. Both Deppen and KUSHIDA are known for their high-flying and technical in-ring abilities, making this a must-see matchup.
As a middleweight division bout, this match could have significant implications for the championship picture. If KUSHIDA secures the victory, he could quickly find himself in contention for a title shot. However, Deppen is no pushover and has a reputation for his resourcefulness and rowdiness inside the ring. With a bag of tricks up his sleeve, Deppen could potentially catch KUSHIDA off guard and come out victorious.
For fans who can’t make it to the live event, the match will be available exclusively on FITE+. To catch this exciting showdown and witness the start of the NJPW x MLW crossover, make sure to sign up for your FITE+ subscription.
