To learn more about what the different name could entail for the match-up, I was surprised to learn \u201cbaklei\u201d means \u201cretaliate.\u201d I only bring that up as it fits perfectly with the narrative of the story.<\/p>\n<p>Mads Krugger sees this as him retaliating in Contra Unit\u2018s war for control of MLW. Alex Hammerstone is looking to retaliate against Contra Unit by stopping their undefeated monster and avenging the many attacks the Unit has dished out.<\/p>\n<p>I said before <em>King of Colesseum<\/em> that Krugger would walk away with the championship; I will repeat that sentiment.
