If you are looking for destruction, then few dish it out better than Mikey Whiplash. Whether he’s going hold for hold with Jack Gallagher or smashing Jimmy Havoc round the head with the nearest heavy object, the common thread?

It all hurts.

Having been on the UK wrestling scene for well over a decade, Whiplash is an old head on a relatively young man’s body. A former ICW Heavyweight Champion and the owner of Glasgow-based promotion Fierce Females, he’s got his finger in many pies. Yet, from a fans’ perspective, he’s never better than when he’s dealing out pain.

If you need proof of it, his feud with BT Gunn is hard to ignore. The two men beat each other bloody all over the UK, and it all came to a head in front of a sold-out SECC when Gunn and his brothers in the NAK took on Whiplash and Legion in a steel cage.

It’s still one of ICW’s most iconic feuds, and if you can watch without flinching, you are a braver person than most.
