WITH Raw’s 25th anniversary and the Royal Rumble next week, all eyes will be across the Pond – so let’s talk about what’s going on in Britain before the madness begins.
Revolution Pro are back in London for their High Stakes event on Saturday night with some compelling matches on the card.
CCK against Zack Gibson and Josh Bodom has a certain ring to it, as does Suzuki Gun against Moustache Mountain in the main event for the tag titles. In another tag thriller, Evil and Sanada take on Aussie Open.
Adam Brooks and Ryan Smile also do battle and for the first time at London’s iconic York Hall, the new Women’s title will be defended in a triple-threat match between Millie McKenzie, Bea Priestley and inaugural champion Jinny.
Fashionista Jinny is certainly one to watch in 2018 with a burgeoning reputation which might some day come close to matching her extensive wardrobe.
“Researching several designers who want to work with me” on the West Coast of the States this week in preparation, she was swift to stitch up FT in her own indomitable fashion: “Which designers? It’s none of your business.
“I hope you know how privileged you are to be talking to the first Rev Pro women’s champion, the Knightsbridge Fashionista. In fact, Lennon, you should be facing the wall when you talk to me, looking like you do.
“Naturally the title belt won’t look as good adorning anyone else as it does me. It doesn’t matter if I’m facing one or two women, no-one will take MY title from me. I am ruthless.”
Fight Club: Pro have their Wrestlehouse 18 event on the 26 January and they’re going to have to move the sofa, judging by the card.
We all know the strength in depth of talent in the Midlands and the promotion has long been a wellspring of some of the best that Blighty has to offer. WWE UK champion Pete Dunne, Trent Seven, Tyler Bate, Zack Sabre Jr and Chris Fight Club: Pro Wrestlehouse 18 is on Friday January 26 at Starworks in Wolverhampton – get your tickets from fightclubpro.bigcartel.com Brookes are all set to be in action in what promises to be a stunning show. 5 Star wrestling make their debut on February 1 for their long-awaited arena tour, which will be broadcast live every week on FreeSports. It’s a three-year deal, beginning at Liverpool’s Echo Arena. Adam Maxted, the former Love Island contestant, is one British wrestler who intends to make an impact. FT has heard nothing but good things about his attitude, but his public pronouncements are a little more abrasive. “5 Star should be ignoring these American imports like Jake Hager and John Morrison in favour of real, British talent like me,” he told FT this week. “I get to prove that against Rey Mysterio in my home city of Belfast in March, but first, in Liverpool, LIVE on FreeSports, I’ll show the public I’m wrestling’s most handsome and dangerous man. “No-one in British wrestling has a body like mine.” 5 Star tickets for the Liverpool Echo Arena and details of the tour are at 5starwrestling.co.uk and the show debuts live on FreeSports on February 1.
