Needless to say, people across the world have fallen in love with the show’s cast members and are quite eager to learn what their favorites might be up to these days. So, let’s explore it all together, shall we?
Danny Cage is Currently Elevating Students at Monster Factory
Starting off with the frontman of Monster Factory, we have Daniel McDonald, AKA Danny Cage. The ex-wrestler remains the owner of the wrestling school that is based in New Jersey’s Paulsboro and hopes to elevate as many of his students as possible. Some of his well-known colleagues include Brian Heffron (AKA The Blue Meanie), William Wiles (Billy Wiles), and Michael Cuellari (AKA Q. T. Marshall).
As for his personal life, Danny is happily married to Tracy McDonald, having been with her for more than two decades. Their two daughters are the joy of the McDonald family, and the wrestling instructor is immensely proud of them. It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of Cecile McDonald, Danny’s mother, who was diagnosed with cancer about a year before her departure. Given how close the bond between the Apple TV+ star and his mother was, we are sure that the loss continues to weigh heavy on his heart, and we offer our condolences for the same.
Notorious Mimi is Now Competing in Independent Wrestling Circuits
Up next, we have Amelia Herr, AKA Notorious Mimi, who joined World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in December 2021. Her ring name with the brand was Sloane Jacobs, and she made her debut with the NXT brand on March 29, 2022. In November 2022, Mimi shared that she had parted from WWE NXT. “No matter what, wrestling will always be my home, from when I was a fan in the crowd to when I was on tv. Thank you @wwenxt for helping me learn and grow these past months,” Mimi stated in her Instagram post.
Presently, the wrestler has once again donned the persona of Notorious Mimi and is making waves in the independent circuits. Her schedule for 2023 is jam-packed, and fans will have plenty of opportunities to see the Pennsylvania native in action. In August 2022, she and Travis “TJ” Jacobs, another member of Monster Factory, completed three years of relationship, and the couple seems to be going strong. On January 5, 2023, Mimi turned 20 and is looking forward to what life brings next.

Hurley A Jones Jr, AKA Bobby Buffet, is one of the stars of the Apple TV+ documentary and continues to shine bright.

Bobby also has his own line of official merchandise, which can be bought on ProWrestlingTees’ official website.
One can also not forget Bobby’s musical talents, and the artist is known for sharing his songs on platforms like Spotify and YouTube. Given that he creates his own entry music, it is easy to see why people are so much in love with the wrestler. Additionally, Bobby works as the Manager of Dairy Queen and is the Shift Leader for the Grill and Chill section.
Goldy is Actively Competing in AEW and AXW Circuits
Let’s talk about David “Goldy” Goldschmidt, who seems set on his path to success.

They even have their own merchandise that can be bought on their official website. The group often posts a variety of entertaining videos on online platforms, which serve the dual purpose of entertainment and promotion.
Twitch is Co-Hosting Pro Wrestling Weekly
The inspiring and impactful story of Lucas “Twitch” DiSangro shone a bright light on the talented wrestler. As his mother, Linda DiSangro, shared, the artist was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome, Anxiety, Depression, and Asperger’s Syndrome, at a young age and found his release in the world of wrestling. However, this is far from the only talent that the Apple TV+ star has, as he is also a talented singer and can create magic on his guitar.
Based in Levittown, Pennsylvania, Twitch is the Co-Host of ‘Pro Wrestling Weekly,’ a weekly radio show aired each Saturday on 1490 WBCB AM Radio. He is also a Bucks County Community College graduate and, as of writing, holds the Monster Factory Pro Wrestling(MFPW) Supersonic Championship title.
