Brian Christopher Button (born February 2, 1984) is an American professional wrestler and body builder, best known as Brian Cage. He performs regularly for the Southern California-based promotion Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), where he is a former one-time World Tag Team Champion with Michael Elgin. Cage also wrestled under the name Kris Logan at Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), and has made appearances for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).
Cage's love of professional wrestling and desire to be a wrestler began with watching it on television as a kid. During those early year Cage became friends with the late Chris Kanyon following a show that was held in Sacramento at Arco Arena where he made a sign that Kanyon noticed. Kanyon then became Cage's biggest advocate in his decision to pursue professional wrestling as a career. This eventually led to him and his friends starting their own Federation in 2004 called Main-Event Wrestling Federation (MWF) in Chico, CA. Cage's wrestling debut happened at an MWF show, against Kanyon. This eventually lead to a second show where Kanyon once again faced Cage. Cage ended up winning both matches against Kanyon. During this time, Cage had been training at Pro Championship Wrestling. Also, Cage competed at All Pro Wrestling. This continued until Cage, under Kanyon's advise, left to move to Atlanta to be in WWE's then developmental territory Deep South Wrestling.
While not officially signed with Deep South Wrestling, Cage competed in matches with others WWE wrestlers. When WWE ended its ties with DSW, Cage left to come back to California. However, before Cage left Kanyon asked Cage to become Mortis so that someday if Kanyon ever decided to make a come back that he could still have his name out there. Cage is the only person other than Kanyon that has portrayed the Mortis character.
