Spotlight: Alexander Roth

My spotlight series continues and its current subject may be one of the best kept secrets in UK wrestling.
I present to you all Alexander Roth.

In the UK scene it can be difficult to stand out, sometimes being a great wrestler is all well and good but if you dont carry yourself correctly you wont get over. Roth is a hell of an in ring talent mixing brawling, technical prowess and aerial skills, but more important is Roth's charisma, and he has it spilling over.

'The Wolf of Brawl Street' has been tearing it up all over the UK and has begun venturing into europe. Personally I was a fan after the first match I watched him compete in.
Roth has the ability to adapt to his opponants style and excel, having also performed in various last man standing and ladder matches. Each time coming up with unique and innovative attacks, as well as his usual arsenal, which includes his fantastic Nightfall DDT.

Having watched him in the ring I can attest to being impressed with the work ethic, but this translates to outside the ring too, wrestling and injuries come hand in hand, but having seen first hand Roth return from injury more vicious and more hungry to compete just shows me how determined he really is.

The London based 'Wolf' oozes confidence and performs incredibly well as either face or heel, cuts promos that spin from tongue in cheek to very agressive and is able to keep audiences attention without trying, which is not easy.
Roth employs a hard hitting smash mouth style that has seen him go toe to toe with some amazing wrestlers, recently including veteren Doug Williams.

If given a larger platform to compete on he could be one of the top names in the UK, he presents himself differently to anyone working here at the moment and I have no doubt would make believers of people seeing him for the first time.
I'd advise people to follow him on social media, attend shows to see him or check him out on Youtube.

Alexander Roth is a name many are learning and it will not be long until he breaks out to bigger things. Promoters across the UK should be paying attention as he currently accepting bookings and will add quality to whatever card he performs on.
Remember the name. You never know when the Wolf will be at your door.

[Caught Live] Different People @ New Cross Inn 06/04/17

The first of my new live reviews begins down in New Cross, London. Essex based rock band Different People are playing tonight and I intended to tell you all how they did. Firstly let me say that Different People aren't just a rock band, they play music that is rocky sure, but its a lazy classification. They blend rock with a punk spirit, heavier moments akin to the early 90's grunge scene and with massive soaring melodies, so in a word they traverse genres. The band, who are playing their first proper gig with this new line up, take to the stage and without hesitation delve straight into their opening song and the crowd are sucked in immediately. Frontman Matthew switches his vocals from strong and melodius to harsh and screams and shouts blending the latter effortlessly into the bands mixed repertoire. The band are incredibly tight across the board, killer riffs, strong basslines and pounding drums. The stand out moments come in the form of forthcoming single 'Best Be...

Spotlight: Candyfloss

My spotlight series returns, this time to introduce you to one of UK's brightest new stars, Candyfloss. Candyfloss is one of my favourite new talents here in the UK. The London native is a regular on the UK independent scene, plying her trade up and down the country and making new fans wherever she goes. Debuting a mere year ago, she has grown in leaps and bounds already having great showings against Dahlia Black, Jinny and Little Miss Roxxy. By all means don't let her happy go lucky attitude and sweet name fool you, this girl can go in the ring, happily mixing up her style to utilise high flying, solid ground work or her Candy Cane cross arm breaker submission. Candyfloss was trained through one of the UK's finest companies, PROGRESS, whom she also works for. Her time at the ProJo shows, she is excelling rapidly and is turning more than a few heads and I think that international talent will start to look to Candyfloss for matches shortly. At a time where womens w...

To The Edge And Back

So I wanted to write about something else personal to me. For most who know me, they will have known that for the last 10 years or so, I have been straight edge. For people who don't know what that means, basically straight edge is a practice originally started by the hardcore punk scene that sees purveyors abstain from drinking, smoking or drug use, in its most basic form. I was straight edge for quite a long time, up until recently, when I decided to break my edge and partake in alcohol. It has not been something I've taken lightly, I'd built a large chunk of my adult life on being straight edge and living clean. I realised just recently though that you can remain who you want to be, regardless of whether you subscribe to a lifestyle or not. Personally I was never the biggest drinker and probably never will be, truth is though that you do miss out on many social interactions and experiences by somewhat standing on the sidelines. My brother was particularly h...
