UK Scene #249

By: Saz
29 January 2007

Wrestling 101 UK Scene RSS Feed | Feeds

Welcome to the interactive UK Scene with things a little bit more settled after the 1PW debacle, we can concentrate on the local companies that bring British wrestling to the United Kingdom.

It appears that Luton may be the next area to suffer the phenomenon known as federation wars as UK Scene newcomer Peter Stanisforth becomes the victim of a prank email attack. Though I won't divulge the contents of the prank mail, suffice to say that the author was not only insulting to Peter, but some of the wrestlers booked on the show.

Now promoters are one thing, they are the public front and commander of a wrestling federation and should expect criticism from people, especially the paying fans.

If the author is reading this then leave the talent out of your arguments with any promoter, keep your war clean if you insist on it. Always remember, in wrestling, whatever you say about someone always gets to them in the end.

If you are a booker or promoter and would like to add your promotion info here. If it helps get more interest to your shows from the casual web browser, then we're all better off.

What we do care about in all aspects of the UK Scene is your opinion, especially the paying punter, so if you have a say you are more than welcome to express it, whether it is a popular opinion or not.

And Finally...

I was told that there was a BBC program the other week about the rise in popularity of British wrestling. Apparently more and more people are going out to see shows, which is a commendation for the hard work a lot of promoters and wrestlers put into their craft, yes, we are light years behind the Americans, however it seems we've got to keep on plugging, the next generation of wrestlers are starting to come through and shine and let's hope there will be a lot more coming out of the woodwork this year!

Don't forget to interact with the UK Scene, I can still read your comments and questions and involve people in your thoughts through the UK Scene forum.

Take care.

 ST: Do not talk to me about fake
By Saz on 6 January 2008
There’s a saying in wrestling. The person who says that wrestling is fake knows nothing about wrestling at all. Say fake to people like Chris Benoit whose “fake” concussions turned him insane, say fake to Sid whose leg broke in half after the merest of falls, say fake to every single wrestler who has been through agony [...]
 ST: What does TV do for the UK Scene?
By Saz on 27 November 2007
Being a professional wrestler can be such an enjoyable experience, yet, sometimes such a frustrating one. There is that old school opinion that wrestling is built from respect and that your time and your actions deserve the opportunities that you get. I know my place in the scheme of things, I have my rung on the [...]
 ST: Time to get the attitude right
By Saz on 22 September 2007
You know, when I came back from Spain, a few things dawned on me. The first being how stuck up our own arses we Brits are. Bear with me on this, I am going somewhere with this.
 ST: Viva l?Espania!
By Saz on 18 August 2007
Howdo, Your friendly neighbourhood Saz here, coming to you live from Tarragona, that would be on the South coast of Spain for all you non geography types. Yup, ole Sazza is sitting here supping Cevesa enjoying the sand, sea, sun, sangria and senoritas!
 ST: More wrestler ramblings
By Saz on 22 July 2007
I mentioned in the UK scene that I think that British wrestling is beginning to carve out a niche of its own, separate to the direct influence of the Americans. There will always be influence of course, that can’t be denied a good idea that works should always be used and the great thing about the [...]
