In a recent interview with Herald Wales, former WWE NXT UK talent Mark Andrews discussed future plans to fully relaunch the ATTACK! Pro Wrestling promotion following the company’s first event since March 2020 back on January 21st of this year.
“We’re bringing back ATTACK! pro Wrestling and we feel this is the perfect time to do it with everything that’s happened over the past few years, and we’re all very excited about what’s coming next. We started it originally back in 2011, just doing small shows in places like Cardiff and Birmingham, in front of small crowds as a place to express ourselves, but it quickly grew a very loyal fan base and became what I would say is the spiritual home of Welsh wrestling.
If you look at the big names to come out of UK wrestling over the past few years such as myself, Eddie Dennis, Pete Dunne, Wild Boar and Flash Morgan Webster, most of them trace their roots back to these first ATTACK! shows, and we hope that we can launch the next generation of talent from the area here as well now.
People may not realize it, but Wales is a hot-bed for wrestling and there is a very strong fan base of people who absolutely love coming to these kind of shows, it’s almost like its own little community in a way, with in-jokes and niche storylines built into the production, and as many of the people in the audience have basically watched us growing up in the ring, we’re happy to be back in front of them in the venue where it all began for a lot of us.”
