westlondonmist Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I bet Alex Shane is already booking a seat on the next Megabus to Manchester, rubbing his hands and quibbling over the 50p booking fee.He'll be okay. Greg Lambert will pay the booking fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Clint Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I remember hearing that Cowell wanted to bring wrestling back to ITV. Not sure if he's backing this idea or it's just coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted October 16, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 16, 2016 There's been a few celebrities mutter stuff and then nothing happen. Jonathan Ross is another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) It's the sort thing that a celebrity says and then forgets about 10 minutes after the interview is finished. Wrestling in this country can't get any sort of mainstream media exposure without someone obligatory mentioning Big Daddy or Giant Haystacks Edited October 16, 2016 by WyattSheepMask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosler28 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 True, its all about the gimmicks in wrestling, there the ones who people remember. Â Book Grado, he could easily be the new Big Daddy/Giant Hhaystacks level of popularity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briefcase Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I give it a month after its up and running before some scandal in the tabloids that makes UK Wrestling look bad. As much as it would be a good thing, its going to attract negative media attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Clint Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I give it a month  I don't think it will go any further than this one off taping that'll probably never even end up on ITV. At a push it might end up in the graveyard shift on ITV4.

Jon-Carr_92 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I think I saw something going round on Twitter about a possible TV thing. Though I'll have to see if I can find it. I know one of the guys they Tweeted and it wasn't too long ago, so have to scour through see who it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I half expected Dave to pick up ICW or someone like that for a 11pm Friday night slot considering the amount of original programming they've been picking up recently. I can't really see anyone but them adding wrestling to free TV, especially not a major channel like ITV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
