A number of eagle-eyed readers have pointed that that it appears MLW's cable TV outlet will be BeIN Sports USA, based on photos of announcers Tony Schiavone and Rich Bocchini and different MLW wrestlers that Court Bauer posted on Instagram appeared to be on shot on the same set that the cable network uses for its soccer coverage.
While nothing has been announced officially, that is the same network that we heard MLW was rumored to have signed with, as mentioned yesterday on PWInsider.com. The network, headquarted in Miami, is available on Verizon Fios, The Dish Network, DirecTV, and AT&T Uverse, as well as SlingTV, among other outlets.
