Major League Wrestling founder Court Bauer said on Twitter today that WWE has made “two attempted raids in two days” before tonight’s big live MLW show (8 PM ET on beIN Sports), but both wrestlers turned WWE down.
2 attempted raids in 2 days as we head into tonight's #MLWFusionLIVE on @beINSPORTSUSA. Wish we could all work together instead of of this trash.
PS: Both dudes declined. Now that's what I call #honor. 😏

Earlier this week, Bauer also said that he had Mexican luchadores Garza Jr and Ultimo Ninja flown in for MLW shows in the spring, but they “blew off pre tapes to meet across town with WWE Talent Relations and negotiate deals.” Garza Jr. ended up signing a WWE contract in April.
We brought in Garza along with Ultimo Ninja this past spring. They vanished, blowing off pre tapes to meet across town with @WWE Talent Relations and negotiate deals. Super talented guys but that was unprofessional and puts you on my do not disturb list. Sketchy move by WWE too. https://t.co/ghwbXCFHKi

Not when the company actively arranges the meeting fully knowing why the talent is in town and on my dime. That's the definition of sketchy. If WWE wants to engage them, fly them in and do it on their $.

They actually do and that doesn't often stop them from tortious interference. In this instance, they arranged a meeting fully knowing why the talent is in town and on my dime. If WWE wants to engage them, fly them in and do it on their $.

Old age? Someone out lifting him in the gym? A fragile wrestling ecosystem revitalizing itself around the world. Things like that. https://t.co/jFvz3x4goM
