MVP confirms the bout. 

It was at GCW/Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XI that after Barnett’s win in the main event, he was approached by now-former WWE talent, MVP

He challenged Barnett to a future match and confirmed that his contract with WWE was set to expire. In his first post-WWE media appearance, MVP told K & S WrestleFest that the match between him and Barnett is taking place at Bloodsport XII on November 24th in Jersey City, New Jersey.

No, no, we locked it in. Me and Josh came to terms. I’m gonna work with Josh Barnett at Bloodsport in November. I believe Jersey City is the location. So, I’m looking forward to that. Josh and I have been friends for a long time and when I first started my legitimate grappling, I spent a week in California and spent a few days training with Josh Barnett in the tradition of Catch style.

MVP latest run in WWE was for four years. He was last featured on television as the manager to Omos.
