Professional wrestling career[]
Warner debuted in professional wrestling in 2015, at age 25. He trained under Billy Roc, a former pupil of Dory Funk Jr. and initially wrestled notably for Georgia's Atlanta Wrestling Entertainment and Indiana’s SmashMouth Pro Wrestling (SPW). The following year he began touring throughout the Midwest and worked with promotions including Ohio's Rockstar Pro, Indiana’s Pro Wrestling King and EMERGE Wrestling, and West Virginia’s Vicious Outcast Wrestling. He first gained national notoriety that same year as part of IWA Mid South.[5]
He captured his first major independent championship in 2017 by winning the IWA Mid-South Tag Team Championship with partner Zodiak and soon thereafter began wrestling for promotions such as Absolute Intense Wrestling, Black Label Pro, and Combat Zone Wrestling.[2] Throughout 2018 he competed regularly for CZW and AIW as well as IWA Mid-South (capturing the promotion's tag team titles for a second time) All American Wrestling, Freelance Wrestling and Glory Pro. Throughout this time he faced wrestlers including Matt Riddle, Michael Elgin and Jimmy Jacobs.[5] At the close of 2018 he recorded the biggest 'win' of his career, defeating Rickey Shane Page for the CZW World Heavyweight Championship at CZW Cage of Death XX. In 2019, Warner made his national television debut by signing with Major League Wrestling. His debut match was against Jimmy Yuta. On March 2, 2019 at MLW's Intimidation Games, he competed against Mexican legend LA Park.[6] At MLW Saturday Night SuperFight he defeated Jimmy Havoc and Bestia 666 in a "Stairway to Hell" match in which a bale of barbed wire was suspended above the ring. Mance Warner was released by MLW in October 2021.[7]
