Annoyingly, while I'm only 20 mins away from this, I'm out of the country that weekend. Hoping it goes well and we get more shows like this in Brighton, especially given it's a really good line up for a first show!

EDIT: Never been in the venue before, but on the website it looks like a decent setup for wrestling. Stage, balcony, high ceilings.

Keep seeing Kip Sabian's name popping up more & more places, and I'm well chuffed about that.

Been massively underrated for a long time, one of my favourites on the UK scene.

So this is tomorrow!

Will Ospreay vs Shane Strickland is main event. Their PROGRESS bout last August was great, so expecting flipz and shit aplenty here!

Hopefully they have a big success and there will be a return date.

They come to our shows & are big fans, wishing them the best of luck with this.

It was great! The Ospreay vs Strickland main event especially.

The venue is.. interesting. There isn't much room for expansion. The crowd was about 70% standing. I imagine the show won't look great on film, as the lighting wasn't very good for that, but as a live experience it was fine. A band playing during the interval was a good vibe.

Never been to Brighton before but considering one of these. Is the venue close to the/a station or a bit of a trek?

Riptide's third show, The Storm, is a week Friday! 

Will Ospreay and Paul Robinson, the Swords of Essex, take on Kelly Sixx and Ashley Dunn, the South Coast Connection!

Chris Brookes and a mystery replacement for Kid Lykos take on Aussie Open, Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis!

Undefeated in Riptide, Jack Sexsmith takes on Chris Ridgeway!

In triple threat action, it's Omari vs Bea Priestley vs El Phantasmo!

Show is almost sold out: https://www.tickettailor.com/checkout/view-event/id/113016/chk/f2b4

Personally I'm hyped for Ridgeway coming in, and the Swords of Essex as a duo are usually evil so that will be fun..

Having not been able to catch the first two shows, I'm dragging myself along to this, very excited to see what Riptide have to offer, have heard good things thus far.

@gadge What's the venue like? Got two tickets, but not sure how early I need to get down there to nab a decent spot. Bringing a non-wrestling fan who enjoyed NXT at the Birghton Centre, so hoping he'll enjoy this.
