Lio Rush Meets Kalimba At CMLL FantasticaMania Mexico
Lio Rush met his doppelganger at CMLL FantasticaMania.
When Lio Rush was competing at AEW Grand Slam: Mexico, the crowd in Arena Mexico was chanting Kalimba. Kalimba is the name of a famous pop star and actor who bears a striking resemblance to the AEW wrestler.
Rush and Kalimba had some fun banter on social media. After Rush’s match at CMLL FantasticaMania, Kalimba walked down the ramp and into the squared circle, shaking Lio’s hand while wearing a shirt that read “Not Lio Rush.”
