10 Reasons You Need To Check Out TNA's January 2015 UK Tour
6. There Are NINE Brits On The Show
As well as the six British Bootcamp 2 finalists mentioned earlier, TNAs Maximum Impact 7 tour will also feature another three Brits, all regular roster members. As well as the afore-mentioned Rockstar Spud, winner of the original British Bootcamp series, Bram will be making his TNA UK debut on this tour. Bram started his career wrestling in the UK, mostly for the touring All Star Wrestling promotion, under the name of Brandon T, for eight years before being signed to a WWE developmental deal in Florida, where he was an original member of NXTs Ascension tag team as the less than fearsome sounding Kenneth Cameron, a name more suited for a Conservative MP. After being released from NXT in 2012, he found his way to TNA where he was brought in as Bram, a wayward childhood friend of the other Brit on the tour, Magnus. Bram is renowned for his wild antics in hardcore matches, and isnt afraid to spill a drop or two of blood on his way to victory. On a trivia note, he is also Ric Flairs son-in-law, married to Ashley Fliehr, better known as Charlotte, the NXT Womens Champion. Magnus is the longest serving Brit on the TNA roster, having debuted back in 2008. The first British wrestler in 108 years to win a major worldwide promotions World Heavyweight Championship, he made history by beating Jeff Hardy for the vacant title in November 2013. He dropped the title to Eric Young in one of the biggest upsets in TNA history and will be looking at using the tour of his home country to springboard his drive back into the title picture.
Dean Ayass is a well known name to British wrestling fans. A commentator, manager, booker and ring announcer who has been involved in the business since 1993, Dean's insight into the business is second to none.
