Once you see the second hat, it's already too late.

Amazing!

Had a cracking time today at Xmas Slaycation with Slay Duggee and Lucha Britannia where I got to meet my two favourite children's characters, Snow Beast and Sally Gunnell.

I love Progress, the Electric Ballroom, AND Vikingo

If Jerry Bakewell is there, it might just be the show of the year. Just saying.

It was three, actually.

This audition will outlive me.

That buzz you get when you walk on stage and one person is screaming "NO!" over and over.

Thanks, Chesham Comedy Club, for having me on.

She did eventually stop screaming no, but I'm told it wasn't until the following afternoon.

Last week in things I didn't want to hear:

"You look a lot older with the mask on"

"How old did you think I was?"

"At least 60"

First Santa gig of the year.

Never stop don't believing.

This match never got the attention I hoped it would, having taken place on the same show as Blue Kane vs. Jerry Bakewell, which just blew up into something I never anticipated.

That I somehow managed to book this is something I'm very proud of, & makes me want to do more.

One of my favourite things I've done in wrestling is book this match. A world-class wrestler in Tim Thatcher and a criminally underrated/underlooked one in Jerry Bakewell, from Head Drop's debut show.

For example:

Jerry Bakewell became my new favorite luchador when we watched Progress Wrestling’s “Werewolves of London” a few weeks back.

Friday - 15 November

Not moving.

Hello, Jerry here.

Wrestler, comedian, bingo caller, compere.

Join me for all of the above, as well as daily pictures of my dog, who hates me.
