Court Bauer talks MLW Underground.
Major League Wrestling announced on January 20 that their new program MLW Underground will premiere on REELZ on February 7 at 10 PM ET. Ahead of the debut, MLW CEO Court Bauer spoke to Ian Douglass of The Ringer about what fans can expect from the “fastest” hour in wrestling.
“We are a raw, unvarnished, ultra-realistic product. [Underground] is the fastest, quickest hour in wrestling, and it’s damn good. All of our competitors think having more hours means they’re better. MLW Underground is all killer, no filler, and I think that’s what’s going to make people enjoy it when we come to REELZ with Underground. The other companies are going to keep running the same plays and have their identity be that they’re going to keep signing random wrestlers to make big splashes for one or two weeks, and then they’ll vanish into the witness relocation program. Everyone on the MLW roster has a focus, and we make sure it counts. There’s no politics here, just damn good wrestling.”
MLW Fusion currently airs on Pro Wrestling TV with replays streaming on YouTube. Their roster boasts familiar names including MLW World Champion Alex Hammerstone, Women’s Featherweight Champion Taya Valkyrie, John Hennigan, Jacob Fatu, Real1 (fka Enzo Amore), and many more.
WrestleZone will continue to provide coverage of MLW as its programming airs.
