Having recently made quite the buzz online thanks to an appearance alongside Mason Madden for Uganda's Soft Ground Wrestling, Mansoor was backstage at this past week's AEW Dynamite.

As per Fightful Select, Mansoor was in Los Angeles for this latest episode of AEW's Wednesday flagship, although it's not known if he was merely visiting friends or if he was there to talk business - or possibly even both.

In addition to this, Fightful also notes that Mansoor and Madden were backstage for some TNA tapings in recent months.

Mansoor and Madden - or ma.çé and mån.sôör, as they were then known - were released by WWE in September 2023. Since then, the two have worked for various independent promotions, either as singles acts or as a tag team, and most recently wrestled for DEADLOCK Pro last month - where they lost to the Motor City Machine Guns.

Not only did the former Maximum Male Models make waves with their shock appearance for Soft Ground Wrestling, but they also used that appearance to help raise funds for the Ugandan promotion.
