The Calling Wins MLW World Tag Team Titles At MLW Never Say Never

The Calling has captured more gold.

At MLW Never Say Never, The Samoan Swat Team (Juicy Finau & Lance Anoa’i) defended the MLW World Tag Team Championship against The Calling (AKIRA & Rickey Shane Page) in a Fans Bring The Weapons Match.

The chaotic battle turned into a war that included other members of The Calling and Jacob Fatu, who came out to even the odds for the champions. Fatu was taken to the back, but he came back out and tried to level the playing field by diving onto Delirious and other members of The Calling.

However, in the end, Page slammed Anoa’i through a table with a super Raven Effect to clinch the win.

The defeat brought The Samoan Swat Team’s reign to an end; they won the gold by defeating Hustle and Power (EJ Nduka and Calvin Tankman) on the March 14 episode of MLW Underground.

AKIRA is now a double champion, as he is also the reigning MLW World Middleweight Champion, while Page has captured his first title in MLW.

Make Or Break Moment

Alex Kane recently spoke with WrestleZone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard. Kane said a show like Never Say Never is extremely important. Kane said he considers his match against Hammerstone as a make-or-break moment.

“We’re already on the map but the impact hasn’t been big enough,” Alex Kane said. “I know with the Reelz deal like we’ve reached a certain demographic that nobody else is really touching. I think with it being live and that demographic, being able to reach even deeper into that demographic will be extremely beneficial for us.

“Every big moment I’ve had in MLW has been a test, and this is like the final. It’s not the final exam but it’s [a huge test]. Can I perform under this kind of pressure or not? This is like a make or break moment, in my opinion.

“So I definitely think this is very, very important. For now, if I do end up beating [Alex] Hammerstone, that’ll be kind of like the tone-setting for me. Whatever happens in the future, if I’m not with MLW, like, wrestling on one of the other two big brands. There’s a lot in the backpack for me right now.”
