Beast...

[PhenoM]

To anybody who still comes here...

The man you knew as Beast on here has made a successful first year in real pro wrestling.
Wrestling under the name, Travis Banks, he debuted in Feb and captured the NZWPW Tag Team Championship. All his matches are available through my youtube account, www.youtube.com/phenominc . Dragon, now working as a commentator there called his match and I do most of the media work for them so it was a pleasure to see Beast's real life career start to unfold.

Thanks for the praise my bro it has been a very interesting year indeed and I have come a long way since I began. Hopefully 2010 will be even better and I look forward to the future!

[Matt]

Congrats! Though I think you should go heel and use the Beast name and gimmick, how hardcore is this place?

[Dave]

Congrats, I've seen how hard it is even for a local guy to get over and in a small country like NZ it's tough to imagine a future, as even in the UK 90% of talent barely get noticed and it's the same in America and Japan and anywhere you go but I can imagine it's tougher for you but no-one is stopping you traveling the world. Depends how far you're going to go. I'm proud of you man, I hope you eventually get a chance to try out for the WWE (they do tryouts in Aus and NZ still?) keep dreaming big and keep developing. I'd love to do what you do, I'll have to be inspired by this I think, maybe traveling will be amazing. A year on and you're still growing as a wrestler, you're young...it's only just begun, eh? Just don't let anyone give you a Bushwhacker 3000 gimmick `

[Beast]

Haha I never intended to stay in one country anyway. In 2011 I'm heading to train with Lance Storm so I'm hoping that will open some doors for me and also I have Australia to explore and gain some experience. So I'm taking it slowly now trying to gain as much experience as I can because nobody is going to make it overnight it's going to be a long process that I'm happy to be apart of!

[Dave]

Lance Storm? F'kin sweet!

[Good Ol' KR]

Awesome man. Lance Storm is the man. You couldn't ask for a better trainer. Things are really looking up for you! Good luck to you my friend!

[Dragon]

It's strange to think that when I used to write matches for UHW, I absolutley hated writing commentary. But now, it's become quite a passion for me as I commentate for WPW.

And, my two blood brothers, Beast and Phenom, are there with me, who would have believed it? We are all involved in something each of us love. I remember the days when we all said to each other, wow I wanna be a Wrestler, I wanna get into Wrestling, and now our dreams are coming true.

I think the greatest moment I've had so far is calling the match where Beast won the tag team titles. I destroyed my voice that night and by the end you could hardly hear a word out of me, but it was an emotional night for Beast, Phe and myself and it made it all worth it in the end.

There's a photo Phe's girlfriend took of me, Phe and Beast after Beast's first Wrestling show and (after remembering to get it from Phe's computer) I'm gonna keep it and look at it in the future and think back on this amazing time in my and my best friends lives.


Well, that's my emotional moment out of the way, hahaha.


Just a quick message, hope everyone is doing well, happy and healthy, I miss this place SO FUCKING MUCH haha, bring on Holocaust 2 at a Reunion show I say! Peace, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
