Former Cowboy Muhammed ‘King Mo’ Lawal Returning to Pro Wrestling

Former Oklahoma State wrestler and All-American Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal retired from MMA after his final Bellator fight on Nov 9. But it turns out he’ll be just moving from one ring to another.

In his final fight he was sporting a pair of trunks with a Major League Wrestling Logo. The next day he made his debut with the organization. According to Pro Wrestling Insider, Mo and MLW had been in talks for about two months prior to his final MMA fight.

Mo has had past experience in professional wrestling. In 2012 he fought for Bellator while simultaneously wrestling for the TNA Impact Wrestling.
