Along with the CMLL roster update. Could we also get an updated page for the STARDOM roster as well?
Both rosters could use some serious updating. But then again, that's totally up to y'all! No rush at all.

  @Vishnoah Idk why this is a down vote I'd love to see that the two use similar moves so they have to have a match I could see a faction with Punk AJ & Roxxane we could call it Chicago's GOAT's

Motor city machine guns should be mid carders again started from last week. They are now with fraxiom for now and will have a match against them one day. And we might get the tag title picture again. MFTs, Wyatt’s, Fraxiom, MCMG, we are so back
