Bobby Fish returning to MLW at Intimidation Games 2024

Former AEW and WWE NXT wrestler Bobby Fish is joining the MLW roster.

MLW announced today that Fish will return to the promotion at Intimidation Games 2024 in New York City on Thursday, February 29. Fish’s opponent for the show has not been announced.

This will be Fish’s first time competing for MLW since 2021. Following his release from WWE, Fish debuted for MLW as an entrant in the 2021 Opera Cup tournament. He defeated Lee Moriarty in the first round but lost to Davey Richards in the semifinals.

Fish was with AEW from 2021 until his contract expired in 2022 and was not renewed. He made appearances for Impact Wrestling and NJPW Strong after that. In 2022, Fish won his pro boxing debut.

Intimidation Games is taking place from the Melrose Ballroom in Queens and will air live on TrillerTV+. In the main event of the show, new MLW World Heavyweight Champion Satoshi Kojima defends his title against Minoru Suzuki. Kojima won the championship from Alex Kane at MLW SuperFight last weekend.
