The international star is reportedly in the process of sorting out his visa so he can work in the US, and has been invited to a future WWE tryout.

A regular performer for WrestleFest DXB in Dubai, Shaheen was also previously a member of the NJPW LA Dojo. He notably wrestled head coach and former WWE star Fred Rosser (fka Darren Young) during the October 2023 Academy Showcase.
