KRIS TRAVIS


Modern Birtish wrestler with a liking of bad taste and outrageous acts. But well worth watching!



 I reckon Kris will like the fact we can see his pants - read on for why


In action like some mad Braveheart whirling towards you


 Thrown out of the ring in Preston, he lands at the feet



And if his pants weren't enough. having beaten Ripper Paradise, his victory dance is to wriggle on the beaten man's head whilst the crowd gasp but watch on...!

Danny in chains


A chain match between Danny Boy Collins and Fit Finlay. Filmed in the 1990's , it was part of the rivalry between these two.


Who says its fake when you see that chain applied round Finlay's  neck
 
So Finlay chokes Danny

 Danny Boy gets close to getting the flag ... but not close enough

 
The end! Danny is literally slammed into the post outside the ring whilst held by Finlay, who then drops him on ringside whilst he gets the flag

Brookside as he used to be...

Once he was tall, lithe, quick, and hugely skillful. Got flung around a bit and found the grind of failing British wrestling too much so hopped over the pond and bulked up. Never the same!

Get ready down under!

 

With Axel Impact of Snakepit -worth knowing about


THE PHOENIX RISES




Here is someone you can see now wrestling live in the UK. Owen Phoenix is the name and we will sure hear (and hopefully see) more of him














I JUST DIG THIS GUY...

Jay Spade is a one of those lesser known IWA guys, with talent and attitude.



THOSE UNION JACK TRUNKS!




Its a rainy day, so might as well post the full sequence and show the Kid in the nation's glory!
Such a patriotric site for jubilee - or a sight?!

THE QUITE CREDIBLE BULK?



So the kid bulks out

PAIN?!


But the big guys inflicted pain on the Kid - that back took some attack, posting after posting then followed by holds that show hurting...



PURE NOSTALGIA


Kid McCoy... some thought he was a jobber, but his speed and agility made teenagers of the time just wonder if they too could beat the big guys







MORE A.T


Here's just a few more of A.T. Brooks








AND MODERN TOO!

Just so that we are not stuck looking backwards, here's A.T. Brooks, who wrestles with IWA in America







Nostalgia

NOSTALGIA?

Lets start where it all began. Saturday afternoon World of Sport, Gran shouting at the telly, a warm fire and young Danny "Boy" Collins in yellow shorts

The Wrestler's Bridge - a great move and one that starts this celebration of wrestlers everywhere, past and present. Enjoy!
