Maki Itoh is coming to MLW for the first time ever.
Itoh will make her MLW debut against B3CCA at Fury Road in Philadelphia on September 3. The winner will be in line for a shot at the MLW Women's Featherweight Championship, which is held by Delmi Exo.
While Itoh is a failed pop idol, B3CCA's character is that she sings badly but claims to be an "international pop star."
Itoh competes for Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling in Japan and has become a popular act on indies in the United States. She's also made several appearances for AEW over the past two years.
Itoh was in action for Defy Wrestling in Seattle this past weekend. Vert Vixon defeated Itoh to retain the Defy Women's Championship.
Fury Road is being held at Philadelphia's 2300 Arena and will air live on Fite+. Here's the updated lineup for the show:
