Born in Mexico, Octagon Jr. showed promise while competing against some of the best of the best… and then he got a calling to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor and traveled to the east.

Embarking on a journey of combat knowledge in Japan, Octagon Jr. trained in the ancient fighting arts, incorporating it into his arsenal. Now, Octagon Jr. returns ready to strike with fury.

Standing across the ring from the golden luchador is a decorated international competitor in Matt Cross. Traveling to 28 countries and collecting championships around the world, the technical finesse and uncanny aerial abilities of this Ohio native makes him a complete hybrid wrestler. 

A respected strategist of the squared circle, Cross will challenge Octagon Jr. unlike any other foe before him.

The stakes couldn’t be higher as both men are eager to impress Cesar Duran and earn a title shot.

Will Octagon Jr. unleash fury or will Matt Cross outsmart and outwrestle the luchador? Find out April 1st in Dallas Cesar Duran presents MLW AZTECA UNDERGROUND!
