MLW Reportedly High On Newly-Signed Star LaBron Kozone

MLW is very happy with new signee LaBron Kozone, according to a new report. The promotion announced on March 5th that they had signed Kozone to a multi-year deal. The announcement described Kozone as “one of the sport’s most sought-after rising stars” and noted that they had “beat out bidders” to bring him into the company.

Kozone had a WWE tryout in January, and PWInsider reports that MLW is very pleased they were able to sign him after he got noticed elsewhere such as his WWE tryout. The report notes that MLW’s management is “very high” on the star.

LaBron Kozone is a 14 year veteran who has worked for a variety of independent promotions over the years including DEADLOCK Pro Wrestling, GCW, wXw, and CWF Mid-Atlantic. He worked a couple of matches on AEW Dark in 2021 and 2022. He is a former DPW World Champion and DPW National Champion.

Court Bauer was quoted in MLW’s announcement as saying:

“LaBron is a blue-chipper and a generational prospect. MLW is always looking towards the future and LaBron is a franchise wrestler in our eyes.”

There’s no word as of yet on when Kozone will make his MLW debut. MLW is holding TV tapings in Atlanta on Saturday at Center Stage
