As Major League Wrestling continues to grow, so does its roster. Per a new report, MLW most recently welcomed a former MLW Tag Team Champion, namely Matthew Justice, as an official roster member.
According to Fightful Select, MLW CEO Court Bauer initiated contract discussions with Justice several weeks ago. Those discussions are said to have "wrapped up pretty quickly," with Justice finally inking a deal with the promotion. Along with this signing, Justice is reportedly set for a big push in MLW, though the details surrounding it have yet to emerge.

Seven months later, Justice and 1 Called Manders both part of the Second Gear Crew claimed the MLW Tag Team Championships with a victory over The Calling (AKIRA & Rickey Shane Page) at MLW's 2023 Fightland event.
