MLW News: Update On Jacob Fatu’s Status, Court Bauer Reportedly More Focused On Product

– A new report has an update on Jacob Fatu’s status with MLW. As reported Fatu’s uncle Rikishi announced on Thursday that Fatu was now a free agent, which was confirmed in a report from Bodyslam.net. PWInsider reports that no one has spoken on the record about how Fatu reached free agency, as he had been under a long-term deal with the promotion.

As of now, Fatu will still be appearing for MLW and is set to face the returning Mads Krugger in a street fight for a show that will stream on BeIn and YouTube on February 17th.

– The report also notes that according to several sources, Court Bauer has been spending more time and focus on the MLW product and booking than he has in a long time. The report correlates Bauer’s renewed focus on the product with the MLW-WWE lawsuit being over.
