Pro wrestling comes to Woy Woy

Woy Woy will host the Pro Wrestling Australian competition on Saturday, April 21.

Heavyweight champion Mark Davis will team up with Robbie Eagles and recent local boy Craig Cole to take on top contender Mick Moretti and tag team champions Ryan Eagles and Rick Sterling.

This star studded affair featuring the very best in Australian pro wrestling will occur under street fight rules, according to organiser Mr Doug Ryan.

"This means that at Woy Woy Leagues for this bout, the rule book will be thrown out and anything goes", he said.

Born and bred Wyong boy Dane Sinclair is one of the top up-and-coming prospects in the country.

He will compete on the under card.

Dane will compete against one of the most aggressive competitors and fierce rival over the past year, Brian Seeker.

"It's so great to be in front of my friends and family on April 21," said Dane.

"I've been training really hard to hopefully wear PWA gold very soon.

"PWA really is the cream of the crop in Australian Pro Wrestling and I want to be on top.

"I have respect for Seeker but me bringing home the win in front of my home crowd, my friends, my family is very important to me and will mark a step closer to my ultimate goal."

"As the guys come from all around the country to show their wares, the ladies are just as important to PWA," said PWA organiser Mr Doug Ryan.

"Boasting some of the best female wrestlers in the world, Woy Woy will be treated to two PWWA matches (women's division of PWA)."

Woy Woy Leagues will host Bracket A of the tournament to crown the new PWWA champion with world number one Madison Eagles having to forfeit the prize due to a serious knee injury she sustained while wrestling in America last October.

Competing in Bracket A is PWA stalwart and favourite to become the new champion Jessie McKay who is former champion Madison's protege.

Newcastle girl Harley Wonderland will compete against McKay.

Recently returned from an extended tour of Japan, training and competing will be Victoria's Kellie Skater and she will be faced with former WWE contracted "Diva" Alex Lee from Queensland.

All four girls have a legitimate claim to become the new PWWA champion.

April 21 will be the first time PWA has been represented their form of Sport's Entertainment on the Central Coast.

The Woy Woy leagues club event is named "uncivil war" and is the 94th event hosted by the Pro Wrestling Alliance in NSW.

Mr Ryan said: "PWA events are always well received by those who attend as spectators, being an equal mix of athleticism and drama with a few laughs thrown in."

"These two heavyweights have proved themselves to be two of the very best on Australia and both of them are looking to compete in Japan later this year and it would be a coup for PWA to have its championship taken over there and defended.

"The event is not a one match card, however, and all of the guys and girls of the PWA have been working extremely hard in training to put on an incredible night and hopefully further stake their own claims to the championship."
