Former WWE star Big Damo has officially landed in MLW, but now hes revealing why that decision made the most sense for him. After reports noted that Big Damo signed with Major League Wrestling and aligned with the CONTRA faction, the former WWE star is now opening up about what really drove that decision. Speaking on In The Weeds, Damo made it clear this wasnt about chasing hype it was about finding the right fit. He started by addressing the reality that many former WWE talents deal with once they hit free agency, explaining that not every opportunity is as straightforward as it seems. For Damo, that level of clarity mattered, especially while he was still working his way back from injury. Instead of rushing him, MLW gave him the time he needed, and that stuck with him. But it wasnt just about timing. Damo also pointed to the roster itself as a major selling point, saying the talent pool immediately stood out once he took a closer look. That familiarity, along with personal connections like Donovan Dijak helped seal the deal, giving Damo a sense that he was stepping into a locker room where he already belonged. He wrapped it up by making it clear that, at this stage of his career, those details matter more than anything else especially after more than two decades in the business. Damo is already lined up for multiple MLW dates, but its clear this move wasnt rushed it was calculated. Between the roster, the patience during his recovery, and the straightforward approach, MLW checked every box he was looking for.
