MLW Underground TV is a professional wrestling television series that was produced by Major League Wrestling (MLW) from 2003 to 2004. The series was hosted by former Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) commentator Joey Styles.[2][3]

Reruns of the series began airing in the summer of 2020 on BeIN Sports USA.[4]

The Underground name was revived for the weekly series titled MLW Underground Wrestling, that premiered on February 7, 2023.[5]

History

[edit]

Underground TV episodes consisted of pre-taped matches from prior MLW events.[6][7]

In late 2003, MLW released episodes of Underground TV on DVD. Unlike the on-air broadcast, the DVDs contain full-length matches from the television tapings. It also contained backstage interviews from before and after the event.[8]
