Fightful Select previously reported that Nduka finished up with MLW at the Blood & Thunder tapings on January 7, and he has interest from several companies around the world, including AEW. More information is available here.

Nduka worked the AEW Dark taping on January 28, and the match aired on the February 7 episode of the show.

Nduka, a former football player and bodybuilder, previously signed with WWE in 2019 and worked in the company’s developmental system until he was released on May 19, 2021. He quickly landed in MLW, as the company announced that he had joined the roster in June 2021.

In his first televised match with MLW, Nduka eliminated 12 of his opponents in the Battle Riot match. Nduka and Tankman defeated 5150 (Danny Rivera and Slice Boogie) to win the MLW World Tag Team Championship at MLW SuperFight 2022. He later challenged Alex Hammerstone for the MLW World Heavyweight Championship at MLW Fightland 2022.
