Morrison vs. Fatu title match set for MLW War Chamber tapings

Jacob Fatu is getting a National Openweight Championship shot at MLW's next set of television tapings.

It was announced today that John Hennigan (the former John Morrison) will defend his National Openweight title against Fatu at MLW War Chamber on Thursday, April 6. The show is taking place at the Melrose Ballroom in New York City.

This will be the first time Hennigan and Fatu have ever faced each other one-on-one. They took part in a triple threat match against each other for indie promotion All Pro Wrestling in 2019.

At MLW Blood & Thunder this January, Hennigan won the National Openweight Championship from Davey Richards. That match aired on MLW Underground last week.

Fatu is a former MLW World Heavyweight Champion but has never held the National Openweight title.

Here's the updated card for the War Chamber tapings:

• MLW National Openweight Champion John Hennigan defends against Jacob Fatu
• MLW Women's Featherweight Champion Taya Valkyrie defends against Delmi Exo
• Mandy Leon makes her MLW debut
