Lol. Whats the name of the fed? I hope its not something dumb like Oz Wrestling. We've got our own FWA (Frontier Wrestling Alliance) over here and it blows the biggest cock. I have no idea how they convince stars like Steve Corino to come over and wrestle.
Wrestling in the UK is fairly constant. It goes through the same cyclical stages that it does in America. I still see the odd shirt (and even an ECW shirt the previous week) Pretty much everyone is aware of whom the Rock is, either because they are/were fans or because he's over here plenty promoting his movies.
Austin is still fairly recognisable as is Hulk Hogan, the British Bulldog and the Ultimate Warrior. The WWE shows that come over here mostly always sell out... mostly. And the WWE knows that the market for wrestling over here is reliable so they're staging more of their calender on our shores.
