We continue our look into the past life of current AEW forever-gurning monster PAC, as he moves up the ranks of the professional wrestling scene, capturing gold with wXw and PWG, the debut of his Jungle Pac character with Nu Wrestling Entertainment (NWE), and his appearances under the TNA and Ring of Honor (ROH) brands, his matches with Chris Hero, Kevin Steen, Davey Richards, Claudio Castagnoli, and Lionheart among others.

This time period also sees PAC make his first appearances for Dragon Gate, an organisation that would prove vital in the Geordie high-flyer's career trajectory, so hear about early Dragon Gate throwdowns with the likes of Naruki Doi, Dragon Kid, Shingo Takagi, Kzy, Akira Tozawa, BxB Hulk and more.

*As a side note, these early years diving through the BritWres scene inevitably brings up a lot of bad folk mentioned as part of the Speaking Out Movement in June 2020. My support will always go to the victims and those that spoke up, so any overtly supportive or positive discussion given to abusers is purely down to ignorance of their actions (essentially, I'm, unaware of what they did) and I apologise.

Welcome to a brand new wrestling podcast that takes a look at the in-ring career of a particular performer.

For the debut season, we will be focusing AEW's mean-faced Death Triangle bastard PAC, FKA Neville in WWE. In Episode 1, it's a look at PAC's start in the professional wrestling business including his debut with the Independent Wrestling Federation (IWF) in West Denton, his national expansion with the likes of 3 Count Wrestling (3CW), Frontier Wrestling Alliance (FWA) and International Pro Wrestling: United Kingdom (IPW:UK), plus the start of his international breakthrough with Westside Xtreme Wrestling (wXw) and Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG).

With this being the first episode, it is of course christened with amateur audio levels, and stop-start flow so bare with yeah? Rusty at this...
