New Generation Wrestling celebrate 15 years with Connexin Live show

FAMILY-FRIENDLY: New Generation Wrestling

By Simon Bristow

Hull-based New Generation Wrestling will stage its biggest ever show at Connexin Live later this year.

Celebrating its 15th year anniversary, New Generation Wrestling ends a year of celebrations at Hull’s largest indoor venue on Saturday, December 16.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, September 8, at 10am.

New Generation Wrestling is billed as the biggest and best family-friendly wrestling entertainment show in Europe.

Prior to the pandemic, NGW aired in over 34 countries around the world. Thanks to its deal with Butlin’s in 2016, in the four years before Covid, New Generation Wrestling held over 100 events a year, attended by over 300,000 people a year.

In 2019, the NGW wrestlers, who had previously had their matches filmed and televised from Hull City Hall, were featured in the historic return of British wrestling to ITV after a 30-year absence.

The prime-time Saturday night series would be seen by over ten million people in the UK and aired globally. The team behind NGW was a driving force in working with ITV to bring the series to fruition.

With the slogan “Bring Out The Hero In You”, NGW is a “live-action comic book come to life” and has put Hull and its homegrown talent on the wrestling map, worldwide.

Seated tickets will be available from www.connexinlivehull.com or by visiting Ticketmaster. VIP and hospitality upgrades are also available for all shows, email hull@eu.asmglobal.com for further details.
