The stars of Europe’s biggest touring wrestling show are coming back to Northampton with an all-action family spectacular later this month.

The two-hour spectacle includes matches created for the whole family from 'heavyweight challenge' to 'tag team thriller' and even a match for the Megaslam Championship.

A Megaslam spokesman said: "Megaslam has been touring the United Kingdom since 2009. Each year we set out on the road in January and present a full schedule throughout the year.

"The pandemic has been difficult for everyone and the entertainment industry has been hit hard, we are chomping at the bit to get back out there and I think fans are also excited at the prospect of seeing some live entertainment’

"The show will feature a mix of heavyweight wrestling stars, exciting high-flyers and some incredible matches."
