Big Damo: MLW's Patient Patience Paid Off
6 Oct
Summary
- MLW showed patience with Big Damo during injury recovery.
- Damo cites MLW's global partnerships as a major draw.
- He aims to make history as the first Irish Opera Cup winner.

Belfast's own Big Damo has established a significant presence in Major League Wrestling (MLW) since joining earlier this year. Damo, a former WWE competitor, revealed that MLW's understanding and patience during his recovery from a minor injury were primary reasons for his decision to sign with the promotion. This support has fostered a sense of loyalty, as MLW waited for his return rather than moving on.
The allure of MLW's expanding roster and its global alliances, including partnerships with Mexico's CMLL and Japan's New Japan Pro-Wrestling, also played a crucial role in his decision. Damo noted the increasing influx of European talent and international stars, contributing to an intriguing and dynamic environment.
Currently aligned with the dominant faction Contra Unit, Damo expressed enthusiasm for the group's renewed sense of fear within MLW. While not immediately eyeing championships, his immediate goal is to win the historic Opera Cup tournament, an event revived by MLW that dates back to the late 1800s. He is set to compete in the tournament, with aspirations of becoming its first Irish victor.
