Jushin Thunder Liger To Have His Final Match For CMLL In July
Looking to make the most out of his retirement tour, Jushin Thunder Liger will be making a very special appearance for CMLL on July 19.
In his final bout with the promotion, Liger will face off against Negro Casas, Ultimo Guerrero and Caristico in a traditional fatal four-way match. The rules of the match are that only two men will be allowed in the ring at once, with competitors tagging in and out to enter and exit the match.
