Warren discusses how the injury happened and how he continued to perform through the pain, including through-out SSS16 weekend.

Warren discusses his matches against Big Damo, Kid Lykos and then Johnny Progress over the Jubilee bank holiday SSS16 tournament, before talking about his match against Chris Ridgeway, in the final match of the tournament and the aftermath that followed.

Warren tells us about his life long love for pro-wrestling and how that led to him wanting to begin his training to become a pro himself. We talk about his early years, teaming with Kent Nelson, before branching out and breaking out as a solo performer in 2018.

We discuss his continued success in 2019, his dark match for Progress and his WWE try-out. Before Covid hit and put a stop to pro-wrestling in the UK.

Warren tells us about his development as a character ahead of his return from the enforced lay-off, his amazing opportunity being part of the Peckham Ear of Progress Wrestling and how that led to him being one of the faces of Progress and British wrestling IN 2021 into 2022.
