WWE recently filed for the trademark for “Maximum Male Models,” the name of the stable led by Max Dupri (formerly NXT’s LA Knight).
Dupri made his official main roster debut last week on SmackDown but he had been appearing in dark segments in recent weeks so that Vince McMahon could take a look at Dupri in his new role.
According to WrestlingNews.co, the plan was not for Mansoor and Mace to be aligned with Dupri in the stable. At one point, the idea was to reintroduce them as heels on SmackDown but Vince McMahon has changed his mind on them.
No word yet on who might be added to Dupri’s stable. Plans can change at any tie-in WWE so it’s possible that McMahon will decide to put Mansoor and Mace back in the group but as of now, we are told that other wrestlers are being considered. At one point a few weeks ago, there was talk of adding a female to the group but given the name of the stable, that may be off the table now.
