1993年5月に“蛇の穴”ビリー・ライレー・ジムと、ライレーの後継者ロイ・ウッド氏を探すために渡英しました。
親切な人たちに助けられ、ウッド氏に出会うことができました。

Catch Wrestling is alive and well!

Another year, another excellent tournament by the @SnakePitWigan.

The ACWA/UWFxUSA team had a great showing again - 3 wrestlers and 3 world champions.

Brett Pfarr (90kg) and Angel Verduzco (100kg) repeated as world champions from last year, and Michael Kroells (100kg+) took gold and a world championship in his first tournament winning by rear facelock in the finals.

We're so proud of our wrestlers and to be a part of the Snake Pit is doing here in England.

Next up is the the national championship, U.S. Open of Catch Wrestling, Dec 22nd in Brea SoCal.
