Wrestling is the oldest sport known to mankind. In a corner of England, in the county of Lancashire, a style of the sport evolved that was to change wrestling history forever… ‘Catch: the hold not taken’, is the story of Lancashire Catch-as-catch-can wrestling: an all-in submission style that became the standard for both Olympic and professional competitions. For many, wrestling is simply the televised charade of modern times. ‘Catch’ reveals the lost truth of the ‘real’ wrestlers who emerged from Lancashire’s industrial heartland – and those they inspired. Find out more about the legendary wrestling gym of Billy Riley in Wigan and discover how the legend of Riley’s reached the shores of Japan. And for those who thought wrestling wasn’t a real martial art – see how grappling has become the dominant force in mixed-martial arts competitions – inspiring a new generation to re-discover the art of Catch. ‘Catch: the hold not taken’ combines classic wrestling action and allows you to meet some of the surviving descendants of Lancashire’s Catch legacy, along with some of the foremost names in world wrestling, from US Olympic Gold Medalist Dan Gable to Ultimate Fighting Champion Dan Severn and Japanese pro-wrestling’s biggest star Tatsumi Fujinami. |
