A number one live experience family entertainment show is returning to County Durham, this February.
Megaslam Wrestling is coming to back to Billingham, as the epic family show presents its huge 2024 live tour.
Established in 2009, Megaslam presents over 250 live events per year across the UK, Ireland and Isle of Man and encourages families to ‘enter a world of fun, with their two-hour entertainment spectacular’.
The show will feature an array of talented international stars who have performed in world class venues and organisers state they are bringing a ‘Mega’ line-up to Billingham with ‘unforgettable characters’ from across the world.
Organisers said: “Megaslam is a year-round touring show which visits every area of the United Kingdom plus tours in Ireland and the Isle of Man. We have been bringing our event to Billingham for many years and the venue is always completely packed out - the audience loves it, so there was no hesitation in adding it to our huge 2024 Live Tour schedule.
“We will be bringing our biggest ever line up to Billingham in a two hour Mega-show that will have something for everyone.
“Megaslam is no ordinary wrestling show - it is a complete family entertainment experience.”
Two teams will face off during the live show as Team Nasty battles with Team Megaslam. The show will feature the Megaslam Ladies for the very first time, Miss Melissa Fierce and Miss Harley.
Team Nasty will be captained by Megaslam champion Martin Kirby alongside the towering 6ft star from the Isle Of Ischia the ‘Mean Machine’ Massimo, Millionaire grappler ‘The Sheikh’ and from Wellington, New Zealand ‘The Maori Warrior’ NIWA.
Fan favourite Team Megaslam will be captained by the ultra-popular ‘Derek’ who organisers say is the most popular character on its crew.
“Derek is loved nationwide. Everywhere we go fans have signs in the crowd. He’s not the biggest in stature so he is a true underdog, and the fans love that.”
Derek will be bringing a strong team with him including heavyweight ‘Action Man’ Stixx, Scotland’s BT Gunn, popular Lancashire star Joey Hayes and leading female wrestler Miss Melissa Fierce.
