A so-called family wrestling show descended into a bloodbath in which young audience members had to watch a "death match" with a garden strimmer. The reported events took place at the Conservative Club in Seaham, County Durham, on April 29.
The Colliery Championship Wrestling event is alleged to have taken a dark turn and photos of the event, headlined by British wrestlers Ronnie Thatcher and Blizzard, appear to show the pair covered in blood, the Daily Star reports. There are reports that wood, glass lighting tubes and even a garden strimmer were used.
Around 80 people – including many young families – were in attendance at the event, and the organiser has since apologised for the scenes.
