The Opera Cup, the oldest tournament in professional wrestling, dates back to the 1880s when it was originally contested in grand opera houses. After a 70-year hiatus, the tournament returned in 2019 and has since become an annual showcase of the best wrestling talent MLW has to offer. As competitors vie for the prestigious antique Opera Cup trophy, the question remains: Who will etch their name into the history books and claim one of wrestling’s most revered prizes?
