Wider Involvement in The British Wrestling Scene
LPW has strong working relationships with the Birmingham-based Sovereign World Wrestling Alliance and Anti-Watershed Wrestling promotions and the Hull-based Pure Wrestling Association, based mainly around free exchanges of talent.
LPW was also one of several promotions to contribute talent to the British Under 23's Championship event in November, 2006. Despite becoming involved too late to enter a representative in the tournament itself, the promotion sent "Ironman" Chris Stone to compete in a non-tournament four-way elimination contest against representatives of various other promotions.
On August 12, 2007, Triple X Wrestling made a mini invasion of fellow Midlands promotion Leicester Pro Wrestling. While many of the Triple X roster wrestled for Leicester Pro Wrestling on a regular basis, the invasion included several who did not. Jimmy Havoc went up against Jekkel for the LPW British Iron Man Championship, in a match where Jekkel managed to retain his title. Zack Sabre Jr beat Ashton Smith via submission, in a rematch from "Chop Him In The Valentines". The main event saw Omer Ibrahim pin then LPW Champion Andy Shoes in a non-title contest.

“Juggling produces both practical and psychological benefits.... A woman’s involvement in one role can enhance her functioning in another. Being a wife can make it easier to work outside the home. Being a mother can facilitate the activities and foster the skills of the efficient wife or of the effective worker. And employment outside the home can contribute in substantial, practical ways to how one works within the home, as a spouse and as a parent.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)

“There are people who think that wrestling is an ignoble sport. Wrestling is not sport, it is a spectacle, and it is no more ignoble to attend a wrestled performance of suffering than a performance of the sorrows of Arnolphe or Andromaque.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
“‘Twas that friends, the belov’d of my bosom, were near,
Who made every dear scene of enchantment more dear,”
