Matt Cross joins MLW for new season, two others returning

In the final round of their “open draft,” MLW announced that Matt Cross has returned to the promotion.

Cross will be part of the Azteca Underground faction, headed by Cesar Duran (the former Dario Cueto in Lucha Underground).

The 40-year-old wrestled in two tag team matches for MLW back in 2004. A pro since 1999, Cross spent six years in Lucha Underground as the masked Son of Havoc. Along with some select indie dates, Cross has been seen in the NWA ring as of late.

As part of the draft special, MLW also announced the return of both Jordan Oliver of Injustice and Kit Osbourne of Team Filthy, rounding out the roster ahead of their July 10th TV taping in Philadelphia. Last season, Oliver and Injustice feuded with Contra Unit while Osbourne hasn’t been in the promotion since February 2020.

New faces joining MLW starting in July include Cross, Davey Richards, Arez, EJ Nduka, Lee Moriarty and Aramis.
