Discovery successfully defended this title versus Emperador Azteca on that date. After the match, GALLI announced they NWA administration told GALLI they would not endorse matches for their championships outside of NWA events. GALLI returned this title to Mexico and subsequently named Discovery as first GALLI Mexico Champion.
