Shun Skywalker is coming into Major League Wrestling with a bang.
After Dragon Gate's Shun Skywalker laid out a challenge to the MLW World Middleweight Champion Myron Reed yesterday, the promotion has now confirmed that a championship bout between the two will take place at the upcoming MLW Super Series event in Atlanta, Georgia on September 18. Myron Reed released a video on Twitter regarding his thoughts on the match:
