Reviews
It was ALOT of fun - with all of my family (apart from me the photographer) having their chance to take on the wrestlers
The (now retired….. one very recently)wrestlers were very good humoured, graceful with their time and their answers to all our questions. It was great to be able to ask questions about what life was like when part of a stable)
The lunch was very good…. And generous x!)
Would def recommend
