Joe Coffey was one of the stars who joined Major League Wrestling (MLW) over the last year to bolster its star-laden roster.
Coffey, a former NXT wrestler, joined the company with his Gallus stablemates Mark Coffey and Wolfgang. The group rebranded as Glasgow Boys on Top (GBOT) and are looking to add some gold around their waists. Coffey was with WWE until May 2025 when the trio departed.

“I feel like I just want more character development,” Coffey told Fox News Digital when asked why MLW was the right place for him. “I want to be able to tell a story. The past couple years I just felt as if that kinda fell by the wayside and was kinda wasted. I have a lot to offer. So does Mark (Coffey). So does Wolfie (Wolfgang).
“Im really looking forward to just sinking my teeth in and telling some great stories. I got some great ideas and Court (Bauer) has been very collaborative and stuff like that. I cant thank them enough for giving us an opportunity. I think its a perfect fit for just now.”
Coffey added that he hoped to have a title around his waist sooner rather than later and wished that for all of GBOT, not just himself.
“I hope I have a title around my waist,” he said. “I think were coming, especially now, the GBOT, its gotta be pure violence, to be honest. We have had restrictors, orders, before but now when were in the ring we just gotta be dominant. As said a few years ago, were not here to take part. Were here to take over.
“Im not here to make up numbers. Im here to show who I am. Quite frankly, I feel as though Ive been wasted the past couple years so its just time to step up again and go, Na, Im Joe Coffey by the way. Just to let you know. I used to wrestle Hall of Famers, sold-out arenas, been a main-event player before that. So, na, na, I got my pedigree. Im not going to rest on my laurels. But Im here.”
“MLW Fusion” debuted on Veeps earlier this month, putting the promotion on a and opening it up to a new audience.
Coffey called it a “massive” move for MLW and said that new fans can expect a fresh emphasis on storylines that no other company has.
“Actually watching Fusion (last) Saturday, I feel as if MLW Fusion has what the pro wrestling world is missing,” Coffey said. “It has something for everyone. Theres great storylines going on at one time. Again, I feel thats missing in modern pro wrestling. So watching it, I was like, this is such a good show.
“I cant wait for it to take on and let people see what weve been doing. ⦠The feedback has been nothing but positive. Im really positive and looking forward to the future with MLW.”
