Delmi Exo talks about signing with MLW.
Delmi Exo is the latest woman to sign with Major League Wrestling. She had previously been a part of the early days of the women's division as one-half of the Sea Stars. For now, she is flying solo and ready to make the most of her opportunity.
Speaking with Denise Salcedo, Exo explained why signing with Court Bauer's pro wrestling league was an easy decision for her to make.
"So I was actually brought in at the end of 2020 with my sister as a tag team. So we did get to work with them, and they were talking about building their women's division then," said Delmi. "It is nice coming full circle two years later and getting brought back and actually getting offered a contract with them. It was a pretty easy conversation to have with them. I do feel like they did seem genuinely excited to bring me in and grow with me. I'm so excited to grow with the company and grow the women's division and be a part of that journey because I was there when it first started. It's cool to see how much room there is and that I get to make a huge impact. MLW is one of those places; they just are so nice and genuine with the talent in terms of creative. I feel like it's just a breath of fresh air. I'm really excited to grow and be a part of it all."
Exo is already slated to challenge Taya Valkyrie for the MLW Women's Featherweight World Championship in April at MLW War Chamber.
Exo tells Denise that becoming Champion is a major goal of hers.
"I'm definitely looking to be on top of the Featherweight division," she said. "I love how fresh it's starting. I love how we have so much room to start writing our own history. Honestly, I would love to be able to hold the Women's World Championship. That's such a dream of mine to be able to hold my own title. I've held tag team gold before, and I think it's time for me to be able to stand on my own and hold my own championship."
