Major League Wrestling (MLW) is teaming up with actor, screenwriter and producer Danny McBride’s Don Gato Tequila for a first-of-its-kind live broadcast lucha libre event, MLW x Don Gato: Lucha de los Muertos, at the Charleston Music Hall on Thursday, Nov. 20.
The event marks MLW’s first show in Charleston and will be broadcast live in the U.S. on beIN SPORTS and streamed worldwide on MLW’s YouTube channel.
Tickets are on sale now at Ticketmaster and MLWGo.com, with prices starting at $15.
“Don Gato was reluctant to enter the ring after the injuries he sustained spear fishing in Cambodia this summer,” said McBride. “But through my charm and constant nagging, I was able to get him on board. You’re welcome, Charleston. I am beyond psyched that he will bring his tequila and cool times to the MLW event here in the Holy City.”
“Thanks to Danny McBride for going the extra mile — turns out Don Gato Tequila is a hell of a negotiator,” said Court Bauer, owner of MLW. “MLW and Don Gato Tequila are the ultimate super team-up, and Charleston — with its deep roots in wrestling — is where our story in the South begins. We’re bringing a stacked card, a who’s who of wrestling, and the absolute best tequila in the game. And trust me — this is just the beginning for MLW in the Holy City.”
MLW x Don Gato: Lucha de los Muertos is MLW’s latest high-profile crossover since naming Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor Paul Walter Hauser executive producer earlier this year. Hauser, who starred this summer in Paramount Pictures’ The Naked Gun and Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps, is scheduled to compete during the event.
