New Promotion in Hull
The Talk Wrestling online forums had the following posted:
New Generation Wrestling makes its official debut in Hull. Hosted at the Eastmount Recreation Centre, the nights event will feature an awesome mix of great wrestling talent from around the country, with opportunities for match ups never seen anywhere before!
As this promotion has started up in an area that (at least I haven’t heard) has a great deal of wrestling promotions, it should do well as long as they make the right decisions as to who they put on and it’s not a load of kids wrestling in jeans.
Yes, wrestling in jeans is wrong, even Stone Cold didn’t wrestle in jeans…

PTW – Shabazz vs Nero
PTW Heavyweight Champion Shabazz is the epitome of a fighting champion, and has stated many times he will take on anyone and anywhere. PTW “One Wild Night” will see him take on the brash and cocky Nero, in what will sum up the name of the show; as the rules are simple for this one – “No Disqualification”. Shabazz will as ever, have PTW Owner Peter Staniforth in his corner; and Nero has decided to acquire the managerial services of Dan Edge; as Edge continues his plans for PTW dominance by not only bringing back his UWL Title, but attempting to take the PTW Heavyweight Title to his stable on the same night! Who’s got the odds in their favour in this one? It’s hard to guess. Dan Edge will do anything including cheating on his client’s behalf, and isn’t shy about his lack of wrestling morals…But Peter Staniforth isn’t exactly afraid to swing his steel “Clipboard of Doom” at anyone who gets in his way. This one could get lively….
