KSW Underground Reviews

  T-World vs Rich King - UK Wrestling Hub You might have been left just as confused as I was when the UKWH website went down and all of their socials were deleted. I hit up T-World and he said their WatchFighters page is still up and running. It contains most, if not all of the matches from the old website. So, good news for fans if like me you had your eye on a few matches before the site closed. It also looks like they'll be resuming filming this spring!  So, onto the review: "He has no chance." Tim says to the audience as he is about to defend his championship against newcomer Rich King in what would be the final UKWH title match (at least for a little while.) Prior to this, Tim had another really great title defense against another UKWH newcomer, Blake. Blake put up an awesome fight against Tim to the point I thought he may have been able to take out the champ! Ultimately, T-World prevailed. You can check out that review by clicking here. I also corrected the downloa...

T-World vs Blake - UK Wrestling Hub UKWH says that this is their most requested match of the year, and that's no shock. After Blake's debut against the hot and rugged Rich King, I too had hoped he'd square up against Tim before the years end. Blake starts by giving Tim the "who are you" treatment. Probably not the best move even if he has a couple inches on the current champion. He got his ass kicked by Rich King in his debut match, and talk like that is sure to land him in a similar situation. I will say he noticeably has more confidence this time. Hmmm...maybe this won't be the one sided beat down I'm expecting. Blake definitely has something to prove in this match, looking to gain some momentum after his previous bout. Bold enough to take on the champ in only the second match of his underground career. He really brings it to T-World and this is no squash. Tim's 2nd title reign may be in serious jeopardy. Blake is taking everything Tim throws at him,...

  Rich King vs Blake - UK Wrestling Hub When UK Wrestling Hub first advertised this match there was no question I was going to check it out. Regardless of their outside experience, it's always great to see a solid debut from two hot new underground rookies going at the in the ring. I'm happy to report that Rich and Blake did not disappoint!   Rich and Blake are both ready to go at it the before the match even starts, and as soon as the bell rings, it's on and it's DIRTY! The first full minute in and the ball clawing and face to crotch pins are already starting. These boys aren't shy. I'd be surprised if the two haven't met before outside of UKWH. This feels like a grudge match, and a fuckin' hot one. In the match description, UKWH bills this as a pro wrestler vs MMA champ ring battle. Blake has a really awesome pro look to him. Love the tights hes in! Rich on the other hand enters in basic trunks. He doesn't care about flashy ring attire, he's ju...

  Nero "The Beast" Angelo vs Ollie Watts - UK Wrestling Hub Nero invaded UKWH and won the championship from former title holder Red Redemption, and has since steamrolled through everyone that has tried to re-capture the crown.  Ollie is a great contender and could just be the one to get the title back into the hands of the Brits. While I've seen Nero take his share of losses, he's consistently one hot and cocky sonofabitch and typically comes out on top. I never thought I'd see any heel behavior from Ollie. Some friends and I spent the day with him in Boston and Salem last summer, and he was so nice and fun. "Nice and fun" are not good traits to bring into the wrestling ring however, and Ollie throws both of those out the window at first contact. Go Ollie! I'm really rooting for him here to snag that title off of Nero. Nero, of course, won't allow such disrespect to go unanswered or unpunished. Both guys look great in their gear and are hot in th...

Our next stop on the KSW European tour is UK Wrestling Hub. Much more than just an underground studio producing matches - UKWH offers ring rentals, training with members of their roster, private matches, and even merch! UK Wrestling Hub   I had just become aware of UKWH sometime last year, and not long after I checked them out for the first time, they offered 2 of their first matches free for everyone to download for a brief period of time. I reviewed one of those matches, EC vs T-World ( and you can read that by clicking here ) It's my own fault I haven't found the time to give UKWH more of my attention. The underground wrestling scene has become a crowded field, in particular over the last 2 or 3 years. I'm a very easily distracted person. With a consistent stream of new matches coming out each week across more than a dozen companies, it becomes a challenge picking just one match to download, let alone take the time to review. It reminds me of my gaming library on Steam. ...
