Major tag team championships have been vacated after a wrestler suffered a significant injury and a new title match has been announced for next month.
It has been announced by Major League Wrestling that the MLW Tag Team Championships have been vacated following an injury to a popular wrestler. The announcement came after CONTRA attacked reigning MLW Tag Team Champions Davey Boy Smith Jr. and Tom Lawlor at MLW War Chamber II over the weekend.
MLW has announced that Lawlor suffered "severe injuries" during the attack and it will prevent the champions from defending the titles in the contractually obligated window. This will be the first time in MLW history that the Tag Team Championships will be vacant and new champions will be crowned during MLW Azteca Lucha on May 11 in Chicago. The two teams competing for the titles will be named at a later date and you can check out MLW's full announcement in the post below.
Davey Boy Smith Jr. would have loved to work with former WWE wrestler
Former MLW Tag Team Champion Davey Boy Smith Jr. disclosed last year that he would have liked to work with WWE legend Goldberg.
Speaking with Fightful last year, ex-WWE wrestler Davey Boy Smith revealed that he is a fan of Goldberg and would have liked to share the ring with him. The veteran wrestler has not competed in a match since his loss to Roman Reigns at Elimination Chamber 2022:
"Personally, I like Bill a lot. I was hoping maybe one day we could have worked together. Don't get any superkicks from him, of course. Spears and Jackhammers are fine, maybe not that. But no, I like both guys [Goldberg and Bret Hart]. He obviously has issues to this day with it and I understand where he's coming from. But I like Bill, too. It is what it is. It's not my place to say whether or not he's right or wrong to say it. That's his opinion. We don't agree on everything and that's how he feels," said Smith. (13:45 onwards)
