Taya has been recently making the rounds with her fiancee and Lucha Underground star Johnny Mundo for GFW live events. Through a partnership with AAA, GFW has been employing several LU stars for certain events, with some wrestlers like Drago appearing on episodes of Impact.
Additionally, LU’s goal is eventually to become a touring brand and many stars have been appearing at festival circuits and independent shows.
This will also be Gail’s first match since returning to GFW from injury.
