Former WWE Superstar Dabba-Kato made his MLW debut at Eric Bischoff’s One-Shot event and aligned himself with CONTRA Unit.
During Thursday night’s event, Dabba-Kato debuted under the name BABATHUNDER and competed against Mads Krule Krugger, who ultimately emerged victorious.
Following the match, Krugger informed BABATHUNDER that he could join the faction or end up in a body bag.
The ex-WWE talent opted for the former and stood proudly with the group to conclude the segment.
BABATHUNDER, previously known as Babatunde and Dabba-Kato during his WWE tenure, was part of the RAW Underground Era.
He also worked with Apollo Crews as Commander Azeez and was released from his WWE contract last year.

Eric Bischoff asserted his authority at MLW: One-Shot by “firing” Alex Kane.
Bischoff, who was in charge of Thursday’s event, appeared on the screen after Kane’s match with Bobby Fish and stated that he was relishing the opportunity to make decisions, but he wouldn’t truly feel in charge until he had a chance to fire someone.
Bischoff then declared that today was Kane’s moment and told him he was fired.
Security personnel attempted to escort Kane out of the ring but were suplexed for their efforts.
