Super Series (2023) was a professional wrestling supercard event produced by Major League Wrestling (MLW), in conjunction with Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) and Promociones EMW (EMW). It took place on February 10, 2023, at Auditorio Fausto Gutierrez Moreno in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico.

Production

Background

On March 13, 2020, Major League Wrestling (MLW) held their inaugural Super Series event, titled AAA vs. MLW Super Series. The event was held in collaboration with the Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) and Promociones EMW (EMW) promotions at Auditorio Fausto Gutierrez Moreno in Tijuana. Over two years later, on September 18, 2022, a second Super Series event was held at the Space Event Center in Norcross, Georgia. The event was held in collaboration with AAA and the Japan-based Dragon Gate group.

On February 10, 2023, MLW held a third Super Series event, in collaboration with AAA and EMW, with the event returning to Tijuana's Auditorio Fausto Gutierrez Moreno.

Storylines

Super Series featured eight professional wrestling matches that featured wrestlers involved in scripted feuds. The wrestlers portrayed either heels (referred to as rudos in Mexico, those that play the part of the "bad guys"), faces (técnicos in Mexico, the "good guy" characters), or less distinguishable characters ("tweeners") as they performed.
