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 wrestling has never been taken more seriously, the focus is really on women who can not only wrestle amazingly but outdo many of their male counterparts. Candyfloss yet again fits this catagory, whether  face to face with other women or mixing it up with guys, she holds her own and does a wonderful job.

Wrestling, however, comes with risks and that was felt last year when she unfortunately semi-dislocated her elbow. Despite this set back she merely dusted herself off and rehabilitated the injury over 4 months and came back better and sharper than ever.
Again to get injured so early into a career can sometimes incite fear or trepidation into any worker, Candyfloss however powered through and hasn't looked back. For that, I say kudos.

We have a wealth if talent brewing in the UK right now, both male and female, yet through all of this Candyfloss has constantly remained a fun carefree character, working hard and getting a fantastic reputation from her matches. She often puts me in mind of Nixon Newell and Candice Lerae which i feel is a big compliment as I see those women as awesome performers and consumate professionals in ring and out.

Still young she has many years to adapt and grow but as a fan I can already see greatness in her future. Young girls looking to become wrestlers should use her as a role model and anyone else should get down to a show and check out what she can do live.
Please follow her on social media, please attend a show and please lend your support to a future star, today.

[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...

IT (Chapter 1) Review

[The following review may contain spoilers] So reviewing a film is difficult, gush and risk overdoing it, but under do it and it leads to indifference. Let me start this review by saying, IT is absolutely 100% fantastic. Currently for me, my film of the year. Growing up, my mum read a lot of Stephen King books, and so I found the book IT at a younger age. Upon reading i was immersed in this dark cloud covered Derry community, plagued by a recurring shapeshifting nightmare. The book became one of my favourites. This however lead to a problem, the miniseries version of IT starring Tim Curry.. I didn't like it at all. Although Tim Curry and Co did a great job with the tools at their disposal, this version did not fit with the Derry and Pennywise I had in my head. Skip forward to 2017 and welcome to Derry, Maine.. A picture esque quaint town with a terrible millenia old evil living benethe it. Director Andy Muschietti breathes new life into a horror classic creating somethi...

Spotlight: Ricky Knight Jr.

The next edition of my spotlight series and I prepare to tread on hallowed ground, by writing about one of the members of THE wrestling dynasty here in the UK, The Knights. Now let me precursor this by saying the Knight family rightly have full respect of professional wrestling, from the heads of the family Ricky Knight (Wrestler and Owner of WAW) and Sweet Saraya Knight (Wrestler and Owner of Bellatrix) to their children Roy and Zak (The Hooligans) and Paige (former NXT/WWE Womens Champion). I could and should spend hours gushing and paying tribute to each of these individual talents, however today im looking at the future.. the 3rd generation, I present the outstanding Ricky Knight jr. Lets just start by saying that RKJ is 17 years old, but at 17 and he already had a wealth of knowledge and experience, he constantly performs at an incredible level and is without doubt one of the future stars of the UK wrestling scene. Having been watching him perform over the last year, I mu...
