MJF vs. Hammerstone set for MLW Opera Cup tournament

Two members of The Dynasty will face off in the opening round of MLW’s Opera Cup tournament.

MLW has announced that MJF will face his Dynasty stablemate Alexander Hammerstone in the first round of the Opera Cup. The one-night single-elimination tournament is being held at MLW’s television tapings at the Melrose Ballroom in Queens, New York on Thursday, December 5.

There will be four opening round matches in the tournament. TJP vs. Brian Pillman Jr. and MJF vs. Hammerstone are the first two matchups to be announced.

MJF and Hammerstone are part of The Dynasty with Richard Holliday. Hammerstone is also the current MLW National Openweight Champion.

Hammerstone retained his National Openweight title against Davey Boy Smith Jr. at MLW’s Saturday Night SuperFight pay-per-view earlier this month. MJF & Holliday lost the MLW Tag Team titles to Ross & Marshall Von Erich in a Texas tornado tag match at the PPV.
