id=\"sold-out-crowd-enjoy-first-event-in-a-regular-series-for-the-city\">Sold-out crowd enjoy first event in a regular series for the city<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>THE first in a new series of <a href=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/2015\/11\/15\/speak-sleep-show-repeat-welsh-tna-wrestlers-life\/\">wrestling<\/a> shows in Cardiff has been hailed as a huge success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Independent wrestling promotion Creation Pro Wrestling held their inaugural event in front of a sold-out crowd and are planning to bring more events to the city as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cardiff-based company put on a stacked eight-match card on Friday including British wrestling legend Jody Fleisch, high-flying tag team Lykos Gym and fast-rising Neath-born superstar Nico Angelo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans descended on Castle Street\u2019s Angel Hotel from across the country to see the new show in the hope of experiencing something special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among them was James Dunn who has been following the sport since 2005.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not here for any particular wrestler, I\u2019ve barely looked at the card, I like the surprise of not knowing what\u2019s going to happen,\u201d said James, 29, from Newport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn British wrestling, it is always the same faces, so you know you are going to get a great show regardless of who is on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe independent wrestling scene is a different beast altogether as unlike the major shows you actually get to meet the wrestlers and that connection with the fans is unlike anything in sports entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"

throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At one point, ELIJAH climbed onto the top rope to set up a suplex (slam) only to be reversed and stamped headfirst into the canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The connection was sickening, but ELIJAH had been through worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSome people think that wrestling is fake, but this stuff really hurts, and it is extremely dangerous,\u201d said Matt Boyd, 31, from Cardiff, who wrestles under the name ELIJAH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere was one show when I was supposed to break up a pin by sliding underneath the ropes and catching the referee\u2019s hand before he could complete the three count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, during the match, I\u2019m peeping through the curtains waiting for my moment and then it comes. I begin rushing to the ring and come under the ropes, but my body stops before I can get to the pin &#8212; as I look down, I realise a massive splint of wood from the boards underneath the mat had penetrated my torso at full speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe pain was agonising.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Covering a new wrestling start-up in Cardiff <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Creation_PW?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Creation_PW<\/a> for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cardiffian_news?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@cardiffian_news<\/a>.
