Building a brand, interviews with MLW talent after beIN Sports TV tapings in Orlando

Major League Wrestling returned to Gilt Nightclub on a Saturday afternoon in November in Orlando for beIN Sports TV tapings.

MLW packed its former home, a compact facility. This two-level venue made for an intimate setting with a cool vibe.

The day after the tapings of MLW: FUSION episodes, the legend Savio Vega and MLW newcomers Gogan and Mance Warner were interviewed as part of this MLW story.

Interview with MLW agent, trainer and wrestler Savio Vega.

Vega, 55, who has worked for top promotions in America, Japan and Puerto Rico, is very proud of his Puerto Rico roots. His illustrious career spans 33 years. He also runs his own pro wrestling company in Puerto Rico.

Interview with The Southern Psycho Mance Warner.

Hailing from Bucksnort, Tennessee, Warner is an Indiana-SmashMouth Pro Wrestling alum, training under the tutelage of Billy Roc. He enjoys beer drinking and fighting, and he can do both very well with MLW.

The 6-10 strongman Gogan is now part of MLW. He debuted at the MLW: FUSION TV tapings for beIN SPORTS in Orlando.

Gogan, who hails from a small town in Georgia, is also known as Logan Creed on the indie circuit. That name is derived from comic book stars Wolverine and Sabretooth. Gogan, who grew up a pro wrestling fan, is a big comic book fan, too. He played football in high school and wrestled amateur style in college, but he longed to become a pro wrestler, and that’s his current journey, which has led him to MLW and its television and social media presence.
