World Of Wrestling

Synopsis

While most of us sleep, the heroes and villains from the Golden Age of televised British wrestling grapple against the odds to make it home safely from a night out on the tiles.

Set predominantly onboard an iconic red London double-decker bus, this is a journey into a colourfully skewed world of oversized men, ill-fitting leotards, Boston-Crabs, Half-Nelsons and the unforgiving whims of the British public transport system.
