    Unless I am wrong and he wrestled on minor shows that no one documented he for years and years didn't wrestle at all - Becky Lynch style. He showed up in July 2013 around the time the Performance Centre opened.

    I remember him doing some shows towards the end of DCU.
    Don't think he was even there long.

    Yeah you are right I did forget about that. It was a really random cameo.

    AFAIK, as I only chatted to him briefly when I went to one DCW show, after Sheamus left for WWE he picked up quite a bad injury on an international indie tour he was doing (I wanna say in the Caribbean but not 100%) then left wrestling altogether for a few years. He rejoined with DCW and obviously must have got in touch with Sheamus and his old mates from Irish Whip to get the tryout.

    Being and speaking French was probably the deciding factor. All of Sami Zayn's languages is the first thing that got him hired.

    Yeah you're probably not wrong. But credit where it's due he had a good head for the business and was a quick learner from day one so I could see him progressing past just being 'The French Guy' one day.

    Hi Pingi,

    If you are referring to referee Patrick Breen then YES he will be refereeing matches on the night. Just 2 days to go.

    I had legit forgotten about that until I read this and I reffed his matches and all. Here I am like an eejit watching him on Total Divas every week going, "Seems like a sound bloke..." :pac:

    CCW Revolution 2 was a packed house Sunday night in Cork City and is definitely a ''show of the year'' candidate. 7 matches were on the card including 3 championship bouts. For full results and pictures of the show go to the Celtic Championship Wrestling Facebook page. The show was worthy of its title ''CCW's biggest show of the year''....

    On the same night as the UFC event though, hopefully it won't affect attendance too much.

    .

    There's this guy from Bray, Co. Wicklow that is really good. His name is Devitt. I will pay for his DART ticket if you can book him.

    Ouch didn't realise that.

    In fairness kids can't go to the UFC show and the UFC is less of a hot ticket as Cole Millar pulled out of the main event with Conor McGregor.

    Irish promoters/reps: if you mail me on details about upcoming shows either here or via the WWE Parties Facebook page, I'll give them a mention on the wrestling podcast I do for balls.ie. I wanna help and it's some good, free exposure on one of Ireland's biggest sports websites, but I don't have time to be chasing around looking for dates and trying to edit down a read from a mountain of info, so give me a quick synopsis to plug close enough to the date and I'll give a plug.

    Heard the same for a bunch of people.

    The Irish scene is so annoying for a whole host of reasons. But Ireland has our own Young Bucks but they have to go England before you ever hear about them. They are seemingly exclusive to one promotion who puts on shows in one region of the Country. Let's not even talk about online presence or footage.

    Can't say I noticed sorry. Unbelievable show, besides Mania my favorite live show of the year so far (I was at all 3 nights of 16 Carat and all most the mania weekend shows)

    Also need to get my arse to some Irish shows, I've been to 1 in the past 5 years I'd say. Bad form on my part.

    El Ligero looks class. Would love to see him face Prince Devitt at Liberty Hall in Dublin. Would be epic.
