Fight analysts (commentators) Jared St. Laurent and Rich Bocchini welcome fans to MLW Fusion. Just as they're about to announce what's on this week's lineup, CONTRA Unit's leader Josef Samael interrupts the broadcast. Samael is excited to introduce his masked mercenary named Mads Krugger, who took out Alex Hammerstone two weeks ago. He will be in action later on in the broadcast.

Rich Bocchini is notified by MLW that they're back on the air following that unexpected interruption. We get ready for the final two opening-round matches for the 2020 Opera Cup. The first one is up next!

Winner: ACH

ACH moves on to the semi-finals of the 2020 Opera Cup.

Post-Match: ACH says that he's f'n hungry for his next opponent in the tournament, who will be "Filthy" Tom Lawlor.

Speaking of Lawlor, he sends a message out from his home in Las Vegas to the MLW World Tag Team Champions Ross & Marshall Von Erich that they better watch their backs because his boys Dominic Garrini and Kevin Ku are coming for them and their titles.

We take a look back at what happened to Alex Hammerstone last week, and the threats CONTRA Unit is sending out to all the champions in MLW. The Von Erichs address this tweet from CONTRA by issuing a shot at their belts to Samael's dangerous group.

We briefly see the beginning of last year's Opera Cup Tournament match between Davey Boy Smith Jr. and Low Ki before the show takes a commercial break.

In Mexico City, Salina de la Renta is taking care of both business and revenge to take care of. She sends Konnan a chilling message in Spanish.

We continue seeing more of Davey Boy/Low Ki's match from last year.

Back to the ring now, we'll see CONTRA Unit's newest member Mads Krugger in action!

Mads Krugger vs. Ariel Dominguez

Ariel Dominguez runs around Mads Krugger to find where his weak spot is. Krugger takes Dominguez by his neck and pushes him across the ring. He then throws him into the turnbuckles. And he does it again. Dominguez ducks out of Krugger's way but gets caught off the top rope. Krugger drops Dominguez face-first onto the mat with a powerful slam to gain his first in-ring victory.

Winner: Mads Krugger

Post-Match: Two masked men come out and put Ariel Dominguez in a body bag.

We see the end to Smith Jr. and Ki's match, where Smith took the pinfall victory.

We look back at a confrontation that occurred between Richard Holliday and Gino Medina. In the back, Holliday sends a message to Hammerstone that he will continue dedicating his wins in the Opera Cup to him.

Next week, the Von Erichs will put their Tag Team Championships on the line against the World Heavyweight Champion Jacob Fatu and Simon Gotch.

And now, our main event!
