AEW International Champion Konosuke Takeshita and Taya Valkyrie are set to make their debut in CMLL as they have been announced for future CMLL events at Arena Mexico.
CMLL recently dropped video clip on social media on Wednesday night and announced that Konosuke Takeshita is scheduled for future appearance at an Arena Mexico show. CMLL’s weekly show takes place every Friday night in the iconic arena. However, the promotion didn’t reveal any dates for the Japanese star’s debut.
On the other hand, Taya Valkyrie will also be making an appearance for CMLL for the first time soon. In another video clip on social media, Taya Valkyrie, who is a former AAA regular, announced that she will make her CMLL debut on the Friday, March 7th show. She will be going up against Lady Frost in a World Women’s Tag Team title qualifying match.
Valkyrie is replacing Red Velvet in the match after the latter announced that she was unable to compete due to injury.
‘The Alpha’ will be putting his AEW International Championship on the line against Orange Cassidy on February 26 edition of AEW Dynamite. The winner of that match will defend the title against Kenny Omega at the AEW Revolution pay-per-view on March 9th.
The AEW International title picture has gotten interesting. On this week’s AEW Dynamite, Orange Cassidy defeated The Undisputed Era’s Roderick Strong in an International Championship Series Match to earn a shot at Konosuke Takeshita’s title next week. The series was announced over the weekend as Kenny Omega challenged Takeshita to a match at AEW Revolution. Next week’s outcome of the title match will determine which superstar Omega is going to face.
