Former WWE Star Debuts at MLW One Shot – Former WWE star Babatunde, now competing as Babathunder, has officially joined MLW’s infamous faction, CONTRA Unit. This development followed his intense battle with Mads Krule Krugger at MLW One Shot, a match that delivered the expected brutality. Babathunder ultimately succumbed to Krugger’s rear naked choke, but the post-match events are what truly stole the spotlight.
Krugger offered Babathunder a chilling choice: “Leave in a body bag or join CONTRA Unit as a mercenary.” Without hesitation, Babathunder responded with a decisive “Hail CONTRA,” marking his alignment with the faction and a dramatic shift in his career trajectory.
MLW fans have been reacquainted with Babathunder, who previously made waves in WWE under various personas. Initially debuting as Babatunde, he later became Dabba-Kato, serving as Shane McMahon’s enforcer during the RAW Underground segments. Following this, he took on the role of Commander Azeez, aligning with Apollo Crews and playing a key part in Crews’ Intercontinental Championship run. Since his WWE release in 2023, Babathunder’s arrival in MLW has revitalized interest in the towering athlete’s potential.
His decision to join CONTRA Unit significantly bolsters the faction’s already formidable presence. With Babathunder now serving as their newest mercenary, MLW’s landscape could see a seismic shift as CONTRA continues to expand its influence. Fans are eager to see how Babathunder will adapt to his new role within the notorious group and what this means for MLW’s future storylines.
