Mason Madden is currently signed to All Elite Wrestling and continues to make appearances on Ring of Honor. He was also a part of WWE for nearly 7 years and spent time on both NXT and the main roster. He recently made his debut for Pro Wrestling Rebellion (PWR), an Indian company owned by former WWE star Jeet Rama. In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Mason credited Mansoor for bringing him to India.

Madden started his training to become a wrestler under the tutelage of Booker T in 2016. In the same year, he was signed by the Stamford-based company but spent the next few years doing commentary roles. He started wrestling again when he joined the Retribution in 2020 and started appearing on RAW. He wrestled under the name “Mace” as a member of the group.

He was later drafted to SmackDown where he started teaming with Mansoor as the Maximum Male Models. The partnership made it’s way to All Elite Wrestling as well where the duo still wrestles as MxM Collection. Mansoor is also the Chief Content Officer of Pro Wrestling Rebellion. In an Exclusive Interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Mason Madden was asked what inspired him to come wrestle in India. He hilariously responded by crediting Mansoor for his PWR debut.

“Well, you know, My Tag Team partner owns the company, so I have to work with him haha,” he said.

Mason Madden competed in a Tag Team match at PWR Kranti, the company’s first event.

Mason Madden was announced as a special member of Z-Company, a heel stable led by Zorawar in PWR. The AEW star was scheduled to team up with the group’s Toofan against former WWE stars Guru Raj and Saurav Gurjar (fka Sanga). However, Saurav was put into a 14-day judicial custody just a few days before the event for an alleged sexual harrasment case.

As a result, Jeet Rama replaced Saurav as Guru’s tag team partner at the event. The match was being advertised as a Handicap match before Jeet showed up as a surprise.

The whole MxM TV stable was at PWR Kranti as Mason wrestled in the tag team match while Mansoor and John Morrison faced each other in the World title qualifier.
