Was this the same show that had the 12 year old doing the Swanton?

Yes, he's a 1PW trainee I believe. Still, that was a completely ridiculous affair.

...in which I may add and defend the promoter and the promotion by saying that basically no one knew what was going to happen, and to quote Dan himself

I'd like to clarify that Ricc had no part to do with the running of the show in question. The fact that 4 or 5 people 'knew' it was going to happen does not mean that it was a planned part of the show. Perhaps to the 4 or 5 people who 'knew' about it, but certainly not to the people that matter, being myself and the referee, Andy Quildan. As such, it is not a "work" or a "spot", it was stupid. Other people who encouraged this to happen have already apologised and the footage will never see the light of day.

I am not in anyway criticising IPW UK. I have visited their website many times and they seem to know what they are doing. They have produced some good footage of their matches and I have enjoyed them. Like Ian, i don't like the use of weapons. However going back to the 60'' there seemed to be a lot of blood in matches in those day. Was it a hall in Wigan called the blood bath? I am still doubful about the injuries though. I can't believe pros would risk injuring an opponent in this manner.

On the subject of chair shots, has anyone heard Parson's & Naylor's American Wrestling in a Nutshell? Great satire, I quote:

"I pick up a _meta_l chair to hit my opponents with. Then put it down and pick up the plastic one I am supposed to use."

Shame Chris Benoit never heard that show.
