Rasslin’

Urged on by Buzzandhum, AndyMac and TuataraLad, I joined a posse for my first ever night of home-grown pro-wrestling entertainment at KPW’s Halloween Howl 3.
It was very much fun.
I think Whetu the Maori warrior was my favourite in the ring, and the high-energy cheating manager Charlie Roberts was my favourite out of it, but the whole show was hella entertaining. And it was nice to see a short but heartfelt tribute to recently-deceased veteran Al Hobman, who was remembered by the “legends of NZ wrestling” including NZ’s most famous wrestler Steve Rickard.
The only way it could have been more fun is if the mysterious Dr Diablo had been on the card – I’d love to see him demonstrate how he earned his PhD in Pain!
