On Sunday afternoon, Fightful Select reported that Lance had asked for his release.
The two were paired together in 2022 when Juicy joined the promotion. Lance has been working MLW dates since 2019.
Lance has been wrestling in Pro Wrestling NOAH during his time away from MLW. Meanwhile, Juicy has made various independent appearances.
Fightful Select previously reported that Alex Hammerstone had asked for his release from MLW. Hammerstone confirmed the story on social media.
