"Joe Coffey's spent 17 years grappling all over the world, and he just had a killer year in MLW," MLW CEO and Founder Court Bauer said. He talks a big game, he backs it up, and he'll fight anybody we put in front of him. This was an important deal to get done. I'm looking forward to seeing who steps up to fight him next."

Coffey is from Glasgow, Scotland and has wrestled all around the world for 17 years. He's a heavyweight with a notable striking ability with power.

Prior to the run with MLW, Coffey was a part of the Gallus faction in WWE. Coffey joined the company in 2018 and was a part of the first year of NXT UK. The Gallus faction officially debuted for the brand the following year.

While in NXT UK, Gallus had notable feuds and matches with British Strong Style. Coffey had singles matches too, including an NXT UK Championship match against Pete Dunne at NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool.

He returned to the company in 2020, with Gallus getting a run in NXT. The group was released from WWE in 2025, but helped train The Rock for his WrestleMania XL match where he teamed with Roman Reigns to take on Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.

Coffey is a former Southern Crown Champion in MLW. He's also held multiple British and Scottish wrestling championships throughout his career.
