Alex Kane talks carrying the MLW World Championship.
Alex Kane has been the MLW World Champion since MLW Never Say Never 2023 on July 8, 2023 when he defeated Alex Hammerstone. Throughout its history, the MLW World Title has been defined by its extended reigns with the likes of Swerve Strickland, Low Ki, Jacob Fatu, and more carrying the title.
Speaking to Jeremy Lambert and Stephen Jensen on The Spotlight, Kane was asked what it meant to him to represent MLW as the champion and carry on the lineage.
"It's pretty dope. I said when I won the belt that I was going to usher in a new era of MLW, a new generation of MLW. I feel like the landscape of the company has changed for the better. It wasn't bad before, but it's different now and I really enjoy it. Being champion and being able to provide representation for people that look like me and also for the LGBTQ community is really dope. Being able to have some of the local black wrestlers from the surrounding areas like Philly and New York, hopefully when we get on the road, we'll get more people, that's been dope and I think has been added to the presentation of being world champion. Bomaye Fight Club feels like a real Fight Club. It's become a movement. I remember when I first said 'Bomaye Fight Club is a movement,' I was kind of just saying it because it felt cool and right to me. Over time, leading up to the title reign, and every title defense, every segment, I feel it's become more and more of a movement," he said.
Alex Kane will defend his MLW World Heavyweight against Satoshi Kojima in the main event of MLW SuperFight.
