Going to the UK rekindled my love and passion for Catch as Catch Can.
During our ten day visit Coach Carl Abdallah and I had the privilige to immerse ourselves in it’s roots. Meeting up for training sessions with Billy Robinson, Tommy Heyes and Roy Wood all in the same week gave us an inside look into what training was like at the infamous Snake Pit in Wigan.
We got to share many stories about Billy Rilley and the history of Authentic Lancashire style Wrestling. Hopefully we will back there soon for more training, history lessons and those wonderful fish and chips…although the steak and kidney pies were quite a treat also.
