Microman On Making His MLW Underground Debut, Ultimo Guerrero’s Influence On Him

Microman makes his MLW Underground debut on tonight’s show, and he recently talked about being part of the promotion and Ultimo Gurerrero’s influence on his career. The MLW star spoke with Sports Illustrated for a new interview and you can check out a couple of highlights below:

On making his debut on tonight’s MLW Underground: “I’m excited to be part of MLW and represent all of Mexico. Whenever you see me, I hope you see that I am representing MLW and Mexico with great pride.”

On the influence Ultimo Guerrero had on him: “I needed to prove myself to Último Guerrero. He pushed me, and I never gave up. He saw this future in me, and he believed in me. He didn’t want to be a mascot. I didn’t want to be that, either. I am here to wrestle. I know I am smaller than anyone else, and I have heard hurtful comments about it. But I stay strong. That is why I decided to call myself Microman.”

On being in his mask: “I love wearing a mask. Even when I was young, I loved the idea of it. That is part of our culture in Mexico. You never know that luchador’s identity. It is a mystery. Even my mother was scared at first of me wrestling. She did not want me to do this. But now she has given me all her support. When she sees me in the mask, she believes, too. I feel like a comic book superhero. That is when I come alive. I get super powers.”
