LIVE beatdowns are set to burst back into the region with the return of the MXW pro wrestling circuit.<\/p>\n
With about 20 competitors across seven matches, the company is set to host their second Ballarat-based event of the year called Scrap to the Future.<\/p>\n
MXW\u2019s head promoter Ash Loft said the all-ages event will be an exciting evening of heated rivalry.<\/p>\n
\u201cCharlie Rose won our MXW Championship in March during our previous Ballarat show, Golden Opportunity,\u201d he said. \u201cNow she\u2019s defending the title against Ritchie Taylor who\u2019s a veteran wrestler in Australia.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s also Joel Bateman and Ace Shack, they had a bit of a scrap last time and they\u2019ll be fighting it out in a street fight. There\u2019ll be lots of weapons and the usual rules won\u2019t apply.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of mix between different styles of wrestling. There\u2019ll be a street fight, heavyweights, high-flying. There\u2019ll be something for everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n
Golden Opportunity served as MXW\u2019s inaugural championship, and Mr Loft said it highlighted an appetite for more wrestling in Ballarat.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was probably the best crowd we\u2019ve ever had,\u201d he said. \u201cThe fans were so loud and getting involved.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were at the Eureka Hall and we were sold out and had to turn people away. We can fit an extra hundred people into the bigger venue this time.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a lot of fun and something you\u2019re not used to seeing in towns like Ballarat. Even if you\u2019re not a wrestling fan, there\u2019ll be something to shock you, make you laugh, something to get out of it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Scrap to the Future is set to take place from 6.30pm on Saturday, 13 May at the Ballaarat Mechanics\u2019 Institute.<\/p>\n
Tickets range from $22.49 to $54.26 and can be booked at bit.ly\/3ntPLJ3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
