Alex Coughlin has retired.
In a tweet on March 23, Alex Coughlin wrote that he was retired, but the reason behind the decision is unclear.
“Yeah I’m retired and it sucks now leave me the f*ck alone,” Coughlin wrote.
He then noted that he had some merch and gear to sell, so “don’t f*ck off just yet.”
Coughlin debuted in 2018 and trained at the NJPW Los Angeles Dojo, and he also wrestled for ROH. He has competed for RevPro, GCW, and other promotions. Coughlin worked an AEW Dark taping in 2022. He had a match on The Buy In at the first Forbidden Door pay-per-view in 2023. Coughlin wrestled at both IMPACT/NJPW Multiverse United events as well.
