According to Fightful Select, former WWE star Big Damo has signed a deal with Major League Wrestling (MLW) and will be joining their CONTRA stable. MLW sources have confirmed this signing to Sean Ross Sapp. Damo is scheduled to appear at the promotion’s tapings on May 9th in Chattanooga, Tennessee, June 11th in New York City, and June 12th and 13th in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The report indicates that Damo is expected to play a significant role in the new season of MLW Fusion. His signing reflects MLW’s aim to enhance European representation on their roster, similar to their signing of Gallus, now known as GBOT.
Damo was part of the WWE roster from 2016 to 2021, where he performed as Killian Dain. He was a member of the group Sanity, alongside Alexander Wolfe (Axel Tischer), Eric Young, Sawyer Fulton (Madman Fulton), and Nikki Cross. Damo was released in May 2021 as part of layoffs related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
He also made an appearance in AEW on the May 20th, 2022 episode of AEW Rampage, where he lost to Shawn Spears.
