“After visiting Preston last month it really is an iconic venue,” the 49-year-old said. “The Guild Hall is almost the perfect place to hold the event because it has that intimate feel which all the best wrestling arenas have.
“There’s going to be something for everyone, plenty of hard-hitting action as well as paying homage to legends of the past. This is going to be seen across the world and although you can enjoy watching wrestling on TV, one thing I always hear is ‘I didn’t realise how much fun watching it live is’.
“That’s the biggest understatement and the fans will be going wild in Preston because they’re in for something like they’ve never seen before. There’s no better time for wrestling to return and May 25 can’t come soon enough.”
