Do you see this?
It's Marty Jones vs Super Tiger...
Jones was one of the best technical wrestlers to come out of your country during the late 80's.
And yet you probably don't even know who he IS.
Britain's Pro Wrestling has been some of the most influential on the industry, creating and inspiring some of the best technical performances of all time. From the United States, to Mexico and even Japan, men such as these have been leading the way for future generations of wrestler for years.
And yet you're told that World of Sport was something "that your gran watched"...
With fat men colliding into each other, every Sunday afternoon...
(Exhibit A)
And what have they given you since?
Singing contests judged by Stock Aitken Waterman leftovers?
Public gawping fests where the most "talented" person is the one who gets the most likes on Facebook?
Celebrity Meltdown fiesta?
A show about a group of middle aged men gawking about cars like teenagers?
Your country's tv, and by extension everyone's, is quickly becoming a Black Mirror, from which little of substance can escape, where everything is packaged and imported and exported in neat little bundles, with nothing even remotely dangerous or unexpected...
We need to change that for you guys...
You need to take a big swig of the WILD HONEY that is Pro Wrestling.
More importantly, you need to start brewing your own before it gets any good.
Not that you haven't.
While you were sleeping, your wrestling scene went Indy. Now, some of the top talents in the world from the UK have to slum it in boxing halls, living off of foreign tours because there are more Americans and Japanese who know who they are than than there are Englishmen.
Look at what you've missed! Look at what your "powers that be" turned their backs on!
I'm an American, born several years after WOS was cancelled, and yet I've probably seen more than you've even heard of!
You need this. You need this on your tv's more than anything.
To British Escapists:
Start doing your own research.
Look for guys like PAC, Jody Fleisch, Doug Williams, Mark Rocco
Look up things like the FWA, and 1PW.
Better yet, find a wrestling show near you and go support the legacy that was ROBBED from you, likely before you were even born.
Most of all, DEMAND more of your TV networks. Tell them that your tired of safe, normal, reality TV. Tell them to give the people something natural and wild.
oh wait, I have to add one of these:
