We are back with a look at the night that Lio Rush defeated Myron Reed to become the Middleweight Championship.
Alexander Hammerstone says he got done watching Josef Samael deny his challenge for a fight against Jacob Fatu. He says this would have pissed him off and he might have broken some walls, but then he realized that is what you want and what you are aiming for. You want me pissed off and fired up so I am not thinking straight.
Now I am thinking straight. If you are this master manipulator who took over MLW, why wouldn’t you be manipulating me. You are a high level chess player, pulling all the strings. As long as Fatu has the World Title, he is the baddest man in MLW. There is one question. Why are you protecting him? If he is so dominant and unbeatable, why isn’t he fighting me. Fatu isn’t ducking me because he ain’t afraid of s***. He really thinks he is unbeatable. You don’t. You know his reign of terror is in trouble. There is one person who has a chance to take that belt from him and you are looking at him. When Fatu faces Your Boy Hammer, the title is coming home with me. Once Daddy Josef stops protecting you, you will get that fight.
We go to Alicia Atout. She says she spoke with League officials and she says that Josef Samael can gatekeep the title, but he will not be able to stop the winner of Battle Riot, who is guaranteed a title shot against the World Champion.

She mentions that a lot of people are being talked to about joining MLW.
We go to commercial.

We go to Boyle Heights and we see Salina de la Renta with her head still covered and she is brought into a room by the masked man who took her from Orlando.
We see a man who resembles Dario Cueto, with the nameplate “I’m Kind of a Big Deal” on his desk. He says he is a generous man. If it was only me you failed, I have given you another chance to redeem yourself. It wasn’t just me you let down. You failed my believers. I saved Promociones Dorado from bankruptcy and you from the gutter. I gave you the best luchadors and all I asked in return was gold and violence. That’s alright. In fact, it couldn’t be more perfecet. I am building another temple and you know that there are certain sacrifices.
A phone rings and Salina is taken away. He answers the phone and he says that he will see the person on the other end of the call in Philadelphia on July 10th.
We go to credits.
