Welcome back to the UK scene where we take a look at the current interest around the British Isles and the ever lovable Saz helps out (somewhere along the lines).
We’re going for a new look as it has been suggested that we at Talk Wrestling Online should try a little harder to get people interested in the UK Scene and discussing it in the UK Scene forums.
So here is my contribution to the war effort.
South
FWA have announced their June show for Thursday 29th June at The Winter Gardens in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire
Card reads:
- Pac (c) vs. Stevie Lynn
- Darren Burridge vs. Iceman
Plus FWA Champion Hade Vansen, The UK Pitbills and more.
They are also in action on Saturday 15th July with their “Summer Classic 2006” show at The Dome in Morecambe, Lancashire
Card reads:
- Pac or Stevie Lynn (whoever wins on June 29th) vs. Ross Jordan
- FWA Title – 3 Way Match: Hade Vansen (c) vs. Jonny Storm vs. Robbie Brookside
Plus The UK Pitbulls are in action.
As WCW4Life states in the UKScene forum:
“I think the company is about to get good again with Burridge, Storm and new talent it is looking good again….Jody Fleisch back is also amazing and I think soon Burridge could be in for a big title [shot]…”
WCW4Life has a good point, there are very good workers in these shows and my personal favorites, the UK Pitbulls, who are really good fun to work with, even though they did clatter me round the head with a baking tray!!!!

If you want to get involved in discussing this show, there is a thread open here on the UK Scene forums.
Ireland
Old Firm Wrestling asks the question about UCW:
“So Irish based promotion Ulster Championship Wrestling just agreed to do a lot of their shows in the Wellington Park Hotel, Belfast. Does anybody think that this is a good idea? I do, because it’s not televised. They can get a few hundred people in there, and do shows more occasionally.
So, for a small, low on money company, does anybody else think that this is a good idea?”
