VIDEO: DREW GALLOWAY ANNOUNCES FIVE STAR WRESTLING'S TV DEAL WITH SPIKE TV UK

By Mike Johnson on 2017-01-16 16:04:00

As we reported over the weekend, Drew Galloway took part in an announcement that Five Star Wrestling's event in Dundee, Scotland on 1/28 will air live on SpikeTV in the UK in advance of a weekly series that will see the promotion hold a massive tournament.

The following video from the conference was released today:

The 1/29 event will feature Rey Mysterio Jr., John Morrison, Galloway, Carlito, Joe Coffey, Jay Lethal, PJ Black (Justin Gabriel), Nick Aldis (Magnus), Mark Haskins, Joe Hendry, Kid Fite, Jack Jester and Jimmy Havoc.   Galloway also announced that Kurt Angle will be an announcer on the 1/28 broadcast.  Galloway made it clear in the announcement that the special would air over Spike TV (channel 5) in the UK, not streaming online.

Spike TV's UK version launched in April 2015 and often features material exclusive for the British market that does not make its way over to the United States, including MMA promotion BAMMA.    It is not likely that the special or series would be broadcast here in the United States.

Tickets for the 1/28 Five Star Wrestling event in Dundee, Scotland can be purchased at www.5starwrestling.co.uk.
