There are few more seasoned performers on the UK scene than Martin Kirby and El Ligero. Despite Simon Miller's apparent inability to say the latter's name, the masked man has been a stalwart of British wrestling for years now. That's something the commentator knows only too well, and he - along with King Ross - marvelled at Ligero's performance.

By far, Kirby was the best choice to oppose the high-flyer at Loaded. The pair worked a comedy-laden match, but that was a breath of fresh air after the previous breakneck speed of the Triple Threat. Also, it allowed Kirby to show off his personality, something other promoters should take note of.

Celebrating the most rudimentary of moves, the animated grappler sprinted around the ring, much to the bemusement of his opponent. It'd be El Ligero who had the last laugh, defeating his foe, but not before Kirby played up to the crowd expertly.

Not many wrestlers know how to work an audience quite as well, so Martin Kirby deserves incredible praise for his level of interaction and engagement.
