Kendo returns this Sunday, the 14th April. There are now just 10 tickets left until this show is sold out.

Joe did team up with Paul Lincoln who went by the name of Togo Tani

Merry Christmas Main Mask and hope to see you in Watford in August 2024. I would also like to send Christmas wishes to the other members and thank Hack for all the hard work he puts in every day to keep this site going especially this year having to change it all over to a new web provider.

Brian was a special guest at the Wrestling Lunch in Watford in August and celebrated his birthday with many of his former coleagues. He remains well and thoroughly enjoyed his day with everyone.

Peter, looking at the wrestling events page there are at least 13 UK wrestling shows planned in the UK for Coronation day and thats just the one advertised on there. I am sure there may be more.

Paul, I think wrestling is the best it has been for many years at the moment and there are certainly more shows than ever going on now. Many promoters are putting shows on in the same towns which is great for the local fans and every week you see numerous posts on social media saying shows are selling out across the UK. Last weekend one promoter had over 1000 fans in attendance whilst another had over 500. I know a lot of older fans dont have any interest in todays wrestling and thats fine, its a different product from back in the day, but one thing is for certain many promoters are once again putting on entertaining shows and that can only be a good thing.

A few years ago television presenter Mark Rhodes, and one half of Sam and Mark, (no I have not heard of him either) did answer questions on the World Wrestling Federation on Celebrity Mastermind.

Here is a photo of Fred just before Xmas 22 when he was made Lifetime President of the Essex Wrestlers Reunion which is run by Neil Evans so you are correct there is a connection there. Fred did attend The Bridges Reunion on a number of occasions with Neil, I believe the last time was 2019.

I believe that the current Father of Wrestling is the lightweight 'Smiler' Fred Bentley who celebrated his 95th birthday last year.

Happy New Year to all Heritage members, I hope 2023 is a good year for you all. A huge thank you to Hack as well for keeping this site the number one in the World, nobody does a better job in keeping the memory of British Wrestling alive. I hope to see some of you in Ayr in September for the Wrestlers Reunion Scotland 7, it promises to be a great weekend.

Bill/Wayne got severely ribbed over this at the time, especially by his wife Sarah who thought he looked a prat ha ha ha.

That would be Pandora Verrukalian unless I am mistaken which is a strong possibility.

Former lightweight Champion Zoltan Boscik also passed away on this day in 2020 at his home in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Thank you as always to Hack, Ron and MM for your contribution, just what I needed, I knew you would come up trumps and thats why there is nowhere better anywhere online to get your british wrestling fix and get anything you need...always very helpful.

On the cagematch website it shows the following result for Shirley Crabtree: 14th June 1972 Billy White vs. Shirley Crabtree - Draw CWA - Event @ Heumarkt in Wien, Österreich

Not a lot mentioned here Ron but a reference nevertheless

Thank you MM and Hack for your kind words, after speaking to various people the majority wanted the Reunion to carry on and so we will do just that. Obviously with each passing year we will see a decline in numbers attending but as long as people want us we will carry on. MM, I am trying to find a venue which is centrally located in the UK for the gathering that I mentioned to you in our recent email communication and hopefully this will be able to happen in 2022.

Everyone who appeared on this show got one of these plaques, this is Joe D'Orazios who was one of the referees on the night.
