Moloney defeated United Empire member Francesco Akira at the RevPro Revolution Rumble event on March 26. After the match, Ospreay and Akira left an United Empire armband in the ring for Moloney, and he took it. As a result, he accepted their invitation to join the group.
Ospreay subsequently commented on the news in a tweet. He noted that Moloney was “fired” from NXT UK in 2019. He highlighted Moloney’s work ethic and the way he has has grinded in the UK wrestling scene. Ospreay ended the message by writing “be scared.”
Dan Moloney is a guy that was fired from NXT:U.K. back in 2019.
The work ethic he put in after, throughout the pandemic, when the crowd returned & now is a real testament to the man he is.
Never took shortcuts, he showed up and grafted in a scene pronounced DOA.
