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.

Famous quotes containing the words wider, involvement, british, wrestling and/or scene:
“It is not stressful circumstances, as such, that do harm to children. Rather, it is the quality of their interpersonal relationships and their transactions with the wider social and material environment that lead to behavioral, emotional, and physical health problems. If stress matters, it is in terms of how it influences the relationships that are important to the child.”
—Felton Earls (20th century)
“It may be tempting to focus on the fact that, even among those who support equality, men’s involvement as fathers remains a far distance from what most women want and most children need. Yet it is also important to acknowledge how far and how fast many men have moved towards a pattern that not long ago virtually all men considered anathema.”
—Katherine Gerson (20th century)
“The British blockade won the war; but the wonder is that the British blockhead did not lose it. I suppose the enemy was no wiser. War is not a sharpener of wits.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“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)
“An age is the reversal of an age:
When strangers murdered Emmet, Fitzgerald, Tone,
We lived like men that watch a painted stage.
What matter for the scene, the scene once gone:
It had not touched our lives.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
