The prestigious Opera Cup continues as two of CMLL’s most respected luchadores enter the tournament for the first time ever.
Zandokan Jr., known as El Rey del Mundo, brings swagger, brutality, and a reputation for breaking every rule in the book. Representing CMLL and the fearsome faction Los Depredadores, Zandokan Jr. has made it his mission to plunder MLW’s tournament gold by any means necessary. After stealing headlines with his ruthlessness and unrelenting brawling style, he’s now out to steal the Opera Cup itself.
But across the ring stands a proud rival from lucha royalty.
Blue Panther Jr., the son of the legendary Blue Panther, enters the Opera Cup with both tradition and technique on his side. With a style rooted in pure lucha libre and years of experience in CMLL’s most prestigious battles, Blue Panther Jr. is calm, calculated, and dangerous once he finds his rhythm. This isn’t just about advancing—it’s about defending the family name and proving lucha libre’s legacy lives strong.
With MLW’s Opera Cup welcoming stars from MLW, CMLL, and NJPW, the tournament has never been more competitive or globally stacked.
One is chaos and carnage.The other, legacy and discipline.Only one advances.

Fightland will be headlined by Matt Riddle defending the MLW World Heavyweight Championship against Donovan Dijak.
