SARAH JONES is a young woman who likes to throw her weight around.

And she will be doing just that in front of a crowd in Middlesbrough next Saturday.

Ms Jones, from Sunderland, will appear at the town hall under her show name, Minx, when US wrestling comes to Teesside for the first time.

Promotion company All Star Wrestling is bringing fighters from North American wrestling, World Wrestling Entertainment and Canada's Stampede Wrestling to the town.

Young fans are being encouraged to design and take along a poster or banner supporting their favourite ring star.

The three youngsters under 16 designing and waving the best banners will receive a backstage pass to meet their idols on their winter tour.
