Today’s Arena Mexico show is headlined by new tag champs Terrible & Tama Tonga teaming with Tiger against Atlantis, Shocker and Sombra. There are no ongoing storylines being pushed today, it’s a show to do a show.
The Daga vs Matt Cross match is on, for 01/20 @ Coliseo Coacalco. The show is being promoted by apparel company Fashion Culture Kitsch and lucha mask/appearal company Chilanga Mask.
