Ground Zero will introduce fans around the world to India’s own brand of fast paced, hard hitting professional wrestling with a stacked roster including up-and-coming homegrown talent such as Kevin Malik, Neel, Kaptaan and Jossan, who will be joining incredible talent from around the world such as Samuray Del Sol (fka Kalisto), the 6ft 7” Dijak (fka Donovan Dijak), ‘The Alternative’ Anthony Greene, Axel ‘Axeman’ Tischer (fka Alexander Wolfe) and Japanese icon Emi Sakura.
Rishi, the CEO of WXM, said, “We have received a great response from the fans. The energy displayed in the arena, the enthusiasm on social media and the love of the audience confirm that India is ready to bring its new revolution in the field of wrestling. We are bringing something that will stand the test of time.”
The COO, former WWE wrestler and Kushti legend, Jeet added “Indian wrestlers have waited too long for a real opportunity, and WXM is giving them exactly that. We now have world-class training, a competitive platform, and a chance to prove ourselves on a global stage. This is just the beginning.”
