Brazil was part of Injustice alongside Jordan Oliver and MLW World Middleweight Champion Myron Reed. He was written off television with an injury suffered at the hands of CONTRA-UNIT when they took over the company and shut it down. 

Saieve Al Sabah, who signed a multi-year deal with MLW on June 8, has replaced Brazil in Injustice. 

Brazil joined MLW in 2017 as Snoop Strikes and competed for the MLW National Openweight Title against Alexander Hammerstone in 2019. His last bout for the promotion aired on March 13 when he teamed with Reed and Oliver, losing to Los Jinetes del Aire (El Hijo del Vikingo, Myzteziz Jr. & Octagon Jr.) in an AAA World Trios Title bout.
