WrestleCon has announced a new main event for its upcoming show.
WrestleCon Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow is scheduled to take place on Thursday, April 16. The event was originally set to be headlined by AEW’s Ricochet and TNA’s Leon Slater.
However, TNA recently pulled the current X-Division Champion and other talents from indie events, citing “partner conflicts.”
As a result, WrestleCon revealed on Saturday (April 11) that the main event will feature a trios match, with The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona) taking on JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & “Speedball” Mike Bailey) and Michael Oku.
“We’re excited to announce The Demand v JetSpeed/Michael Oku will be the main event of our 2026 Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow. @SpeedballBailey, @KingRicochet, @TheOJMO, @Jet2Flyy, @BishopKaun, @ToaLiona. It took some exceptions to make this match happen on our little independent show to honor our friend, and we want to personally thank Tony Khan and AEW for allowing this to happen. When we lost our main event, we had several wrestlers, management, and agents reach out and offer their help. Thanks to everybody that had a part in putting this one together,” WrestleCon posted on X.
