In a historic moment for the UK industry, British wrestling returns to national television for the first time in 25 years with BWC British Wrestling Round-Up exclusively on the Challenge Late Zone. Featuring some of the top stars, matches and companies on the UK scene and hosted by Lisa Carrodus, the British Wrestling Council brings you an action packed, 30 minute look at British wrestling in 2013.

Hosted by Wrestle Talk TV's Lisa Carrodus, we kick things off with triple threat match from Hull's NGW promotion, as then NGW champion Rampage Brown takes on 'The Showstealer' Nathan Cruz and the 'Mexican Sensation' El Ligero. Taking place in the Coronet Theatre in London's Elephant and Castle, this is a perfect slice of British wrestling action that shows what the UK scene has to offer a quarter of a century after it was removed from ITV.

Next up we feature our 'UK Promotion In Review' as we look at Preston City Wrestling's 'Money In The Bank Match'. Featuring Dave Rayne, Sam Bailey, Dean Allmark, Martin Kirby, CJ Banks and BT Gunn, this 6 corners match is as fast paced as any wrestling you'll see around the globe and a perfect introduction to the PCW promotion.

After a short break, we head back to the Coronet Theatre once again as British wrestling veterans 'The Wonderkid' Jonny Storm and Dean Allmark take on TNA British Bootcamp contestant Marty Scurll and Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan's break out star, Zack Zabre Jnr. Collectively known as 'The Leaders Of The New School'. This is a tremendous slice of British tag team wrestling and one that you won't want to take your eyes off of for a second.

Finally we wrap up this episode of BWC British Wrestling Round-Up with a look at a true British wrestling ambassador. World renowned technical master and globe travelled veteran, Doug Williams. A star of TNA, ROH, FWA, NOAH and throughout Europe, we see Doug here in an epic bout from a history making show. Taking place at International Showdown in 2004, Williams teams with James Tighe and the man known to many as 'Too Cold Scorpio' to battle the Pro Wrestling Noah team from Japan of Tiger Emperor Yoshinari, Ogawa and sadly passed Japanese wrestling legend Mitsuharu Misawa. This hard hitting match taking place at the Coventry Skydome in front over 3,500 fans, is certainly a true piece of British wrestling history and the perfect conclusion to this debut episode of BWC British Wrestling Round-Up.

BWC British Wrestling Round-Up was created by Wrestle Talk TV creator and record breaking British heavyweight champion Alex Shane. For more information on the British Wrestling Council, the companies within it or its wrestling schools across the UK visit www.britishwrestlingcouncil.org
