The following press release was issued:

The Show Must Go On – Scottish wrestling community come together to remember Adrian “Lionheart” McCallum
 
Following the tragic passing of UK wrestling legend, ICW World Champion and owner of Ayr based Pro Wrestling Elite, Adrian “Lionheart” McCallum just a few weeks ago, his friends in the Scottish wrestling community have come together to ensure that the promotion’s 8th Anniversary Show on Saturday 20 July in the Citadel will be going ahead in his honour.

Over the past eight years, Adrian worked tirelessly as a part of the Ayrshire community building PWE to provide regular, affordable, family entertainment for thousands of people every year.
Knowing the pride and passion he had in life for running these events, a collective of his nearest friends (and greatest rivals) have come joined together to make sure that the landmark event goes on in his memory.

Commenting on the event, the first ever PWE Heavyweight Champion and long-time friend of Lionheart, Andy Wild said: “'As the first ever PWE Heavyweight Champion, this show going ahead means the world to me. Adrian worked tirelessly not only to build a world class working environment for wrestlers, but to deliver a world class product to wrestling fans in Ayr.

"We have all come together to make sure that Adrian's 8 years of hard work is presented to the fans of Ayr the way he wanted it to be by making sure this anniversary show still goes ahead.”

Thanks to all their efforts, alongside the support of his family and South Ayrshire Council, all existing tickets for the event will be honoured and a brand new website has been set up to purchase tickets at: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/pwe-8th-anniversary-show-in-memory-of-lionheart-tickets-64485332365
