Rumours are swirling that one or both could be heading to the WWE and perhaps joining The Bloodline since there are those family ties.
In other MLW release news, former MLW World Champion Alex Hammerstone is also moving on.
My time with @MLW was 5 of the best years of my life and career. Very proud of what I and the company accomplished. I wish them continued success.
I have recently asked for my release as I feel it’s what’s right for me at this time.
Thank you @courtbauer for the opportunities. https://t.co/Nmt8PIaovb
