PWInsider has some new backstage notes from last weekend’s Saturday Night SuperFight pay-per-view and TV tapings. Josef Samael, Jesus Rodriguez, Trevor Lee, Andrew Greenfield, and Shigeo Okumura reportedly served match producers for the shows, which were overseen by promoter Court Bauer.
Additionally, it’s said that Nick Bonnano handled the production production side of the Chicago events. Also, Rafael Morffi reportedly wasn’nt in attendance for the events. Morffi reportedly joined MLW, replacing former Senior Director of Live Events Mike Kitlas earlier this month.
PWInsider notes that Morffi isn’t working with MLW on a full-time basis. Instead, his company, Signature Moves, has taken on MLW as a client. Chad Brown and AJ Scales reportedly handled those tasks for last weekend’s events. Brown previously worked on MLW’s VIP and hospitality side for many years, while Scales worked under Kitlas as his right hand man for years.
MLW sources are also reportedly praising Atlas Security for their work in Chicago over the weekend, with the heavy load of matches and brawling that took place outside the ring. It’s said that Atlas was praised for making sure all the wrestlers were safe.
With MLW Saturday Night SuperFight in the books, the promotion holds its next set of TV tapings on February 20, 2027 in Atlanta, Georgia.
