Court Bauer Discusses Cody Hall Briefly Signing With MLW

– Fightful recently interviewed MLW founder & CEO Court Bauer, who addressed the brief signing of Cody Hall, son of WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall, to the promotion. Below are some highlights.

Bauer on Cody Hall’s signing: “He did sign. He was briefly with us. He had some stuff going on that he didn’t feel he could participate and so we said, ‘We understand,’ and we moved on and we wish him the best. Cody’s a guy that we kinda looked at, probably, dating as far back as 2018 / 2019 when I started to create what the Dynasty would ultimately be. At one point he was a member of it in my mind before those deals, on and off, through a two year courtship, almost. At the end, I don’t think it was a right fit for either party. There’s no animosity on our end and we wish him the best with whatever is next in his life, in or outside of wrestling.”

On not closing the door completely on bringing back Cody Hall: “There’s always a possibility. Like we were talking about at the top of the conversation, there’s guys that would maybe work out better here than elsewhere and there’s guys that work out elsewhere than here. But, I’m always a big believer in second chances. In my career, if I hadn’t had a second, third, fourth chance I wouldn’t be doing MLW now. So, I’m grateful for those that gave me a second chance, and a third chance. So, I guess never say never.”
