Sammy Guevara has apparently made progress in one of the more unusual language barriers in professional wrestling.
In a recent episode of his vlog series, Guevara met up with fellow La Faccion Ingobernable members RUSH and The Beast Mortos. During the segment, Guevara claimed he can now speak and understand “Roranese,” offering his own name for the roaring style of communication often associated with Mortos.
The moment was presented as a lighthearted exchange between the stablemates, but it also played into an entertaining wrinkle within the LFI group dynamic. The Beast Mortos is known for communicating in intense growls and roars that are generally not translated for viewers or for the wrestlers around him. Guevara, however, said he has been studying the language and stepped in to explain Mortos’ message to RUSH.
“My friend, don’t you speak Roranese? Roranese, I’ve been studying it, so it might be a little off, but he said he’s so happy we’re finally back together!”

The exchange gave Guevara a chance to show a more comedic side while remaining connected to the hard-edged identity of LFI. Rather than treating Mortos’ roar as something that needed a serious explanation, Guevara leaned into the mystery around his teammate and made himself the group’s unofficial interpreter.
Guevara’s Place in LFI
Guevara, RUSH, and The Beast Mortos have been aligned for roughly the past year. Guevara joined LFI in August ahead of the Death Before Dishonor event, strengthening the group around a mix of personalities that can shift between aggression, charisma, and unpredictability.
That alignment placed Guevara alongside two wrestlers whose presentation makes an immediate impression. RUSH brings the confrontational confidence and physical intensity that have long been central to his work, while Mortos stands out through his imposing masked presence and animalistic mannerisms. Guevara’s role provides a different energy within that setting, particularly when the group is featured outside of matches or in more informal material such as his vlog.
The “Roranese” bit is a small example of how a faction can develop its identity beyond a traditional in-ring promo. Wrestling groups often benefit when their members have recognizable relationships with one another, and the joke established a simple one between Guevara and Mortos: Guevara claims to be capable of understanding a teammate whom everyone else may struggle to interpret.
It also keeps Mortos’ presentation intact. Rather than requiring him to change the way he communicates, Guevara’s supposed translation makes the roar part of the act. Mortos can continue to convey emotion and intensity in his distinctive style, while Guevara can react to it as if he has access to a language nobody else has learned.
The Beast Mortos’ Distinctive Communication Style
The Beast Mortos has built a presentation around an intimidating, creature-like persona. His roars are a notable part of that character, and they naturally create room for reactions from opponents, partners, and viewers. In wrestling, a performer does not always need conventional spoken dialogue to communicate a character’s intentions. Body language, facial expressions, movement, crowd interaction, and vocal sounds can all carry the message.
Mortos’ approach is particularly suited to that kind of nontraditional communication. A roar can signal anger, excitement, a warning, or an impending attack without needing a lengthy verbal explanation. The ambiguity is part of the appeal, because it allows those around him to react while maintaining the sense that Mortos operates differently from a typical wrestler.
Guevara’s comment adds a new comedic layer to that presentation without removing the underlying threat. He did not suggest that Mortos has stopped roaring or that viewers will suddenly receive ordinary spoken explanations. Instead, he jokingly positioned himself as someone who has put in the work to understand his LFI teammate.
That detail matters because factions are often defined by the contrast between their members. One wrestler may be the central spokesperson, another may be the physical enforcer, and another may bring humor or an unpredictable personality. In this case, RUSH, Guevara, and Mortos can each occupy a different space while still appearing united.
A Character Moment Outside the Ring
Vlog content gives wrestlers an opportunity to present interactions that may not fit into a short televised segment. Matches and promos generally need to move quickly toward a conflict, a rivalry, or a major event. A casual group meeting can instead highlight chemistry, recurring jokes, and the ways talent relate to one another when they are not directly preparing for a fight.
For Guevara, the “Roranese” line is the sort of character moment that can be immediately understood. There is no complicated backstory required: Mortos roars, Guevara says he understands him, and he confidently translates the message for RUSH. Even Guevara’s admission that his studying “might be a little off” helps sell the playful nature of the moment.
At the same time, the translation itself carries a positive message for the group. Guevara said Mortos was happy that the members were finally back together. That sentiment reinforces the alliance rather than setting up a dispute or creating uncertainty within LFI. The bit may be humorous, but it was also used to underline that the members are pleased to be reunited.
Professional wrestling has a long history of performers using exaggerated speech patterns, catchphrases, and unconventional forms of communication to create memorable personas. Some characters speak in riddles, some rely on managers, and others say very little at all. Mortos’ roaring falls into that broad tradition, with Guevara now adding a tongue-in-cheek translation device to the mix.
Why the LFI Dynamic Benefits From These Details
Groups can become visually recognizable through matching colors, entrances, or shared attitudes, but the strongest factions usually gain additional depth through smaller interactions. The way teammates address each other, respond to victories and setbacks, or handle an unusual personality in the group can help make an alliance feel more lived-in.
Guevara’s latest vlog moment does exactly that on a modest scale. It did not need to announce a match, establish a title challenge, or reveal a dramatic change in direction. Instead, it gave viewers a brief look at how Guevara sees his relationship with Mortos and RUSH. He was not simply standing beside them; he was participating in a running joke that only works because of the group’s specific personalities.
There is also a practical side to that dynamic. RUSH’s forceful presence and Mortos’ monster-like persona can make LFI feel dangerous, while Guevara can bring a more conversational and playful edge when the situation calls for it. Those contrasts do not have to weaken a group’s edge. When used effectively, they can make the unit more flexible and give audiences more than one reason to pay attention.
The “Roranese” claim is unlikely to make Mortos any less mysterious. If anything, it gives the mystery another outlet. Guevara can insist that he understands exactly what Mortos means, while everyone else is left to decide whether the translation is accurate. That is a useful comedic premise because it can return whenever the trio is shown together without needing much setup.
What Guevara Said
For now, the takeaway from Guevara’s vlog is straightforward: he says he has been studying “Roranese,” he believes he can understand The Beast Mortos, and he translated Mortos’ roar as happiness over LFI being back together.
It was a brief moment, but one that highlighted the personality of the faction and the increasingly familiar connection between its members. In a group built around confidence, aggression, and a willingness to stand apart from everyone else, an unofficial translator for a roaring Beast Mortos fits surprisingly well.
Whether Guevara’s Roranese is entirely accurate remains, naturally, open to interpretation. Mortos has not offered a conventional verbal confirmation. But Guevara sounded confident in his translation, even while conceding that his studies may still need some work.
