The wrestling is back at Wembley Stadium on Sunday with a huge capacity crowd set to watch on.

A chapter in ‘Lords of the Ring’ is from the same event a few years ago, the first time wrestling had been at Wembley since 1992.

Here’s an excerpt of the chapter from the audiobook

[Dan Higgins @danbamhiggins]

Part of #LordsoftheRing is set at a deathmatch and last week I returned to the scene.

The book was used as a weapon in what is potentially a new innovative method of hardback promotion the literary industry has not yet seen…

I wrote a piece for the Independent today about what we can learn from masked wrestlers elected in Japan… https://t.co/A9h3lXruoq

As part of my journey into wrestling I joined a Gen Pro training camp where I was put through my paces.

What I found there was a fantastic community of wrestlers all supporting each other whatever their age and ability.

And then there was the deathmatch… (1/2)
