A former pro baseball player for 11 years, the real-life Granden Goetzman first appeared for AEW back in December of last year, with him and Parker Boudreaux helping Swerve Strickland put a beating on Keith Lee. From there, Goetzman would become a member of Mogul Enterprises and have his name revealed as Trench.

Trench never actually competed in a match for AEW during his time with the company, though he had been training at Jay Lethal's wrestling school to get him ready to make his in-ring debut.

Both Trench and Boudreaux have been absent from AEW programming for the past several months, with Parker believed to be dealing with an injury. During that period, Swerve has joined forces with Prince Nana, Brian Cage, Toa Liona and Bishop Kaun to form the Mogul Embassy.

Trench is now no longer listed on the AEW roster page, though Parker Boudreaux is listed there and is also named as being part of the Mogul Embassy stable.
