Over the last few years WWE has recruited a number of interesting names including Jeff Cobb who debuted as a new member of Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline in May of 2025. Eventually the group rebranded to MFT and the members of MFT started waring face paint.
While talking about the face paint during an interview with SOTO619wrestling, Jeff Cobb noted he was told to wear the paint like he “did in Japan.” Cobb then pointed out that he never wore paint in Japan, which might mean that the company had him confused with somebody else.
“Paint [was more annoying to wrestle in than a mask] because I’d never done that before. Although to be fair, l’d never done the mask thing before, but the paint was truly different. I was told, ‘You’re gonna wear the paint like you did in Japan,’ and I never wore paint in Japan. I think they got me confused with somebody else.”
Unfortunately for Jeff Cobb, his run with WWE lasted less than a year as he was released from his contract back in May. He has since made his return to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
