UK based promotion XWA has crowned their first ever female Heavyweight Champion. Former Pro Wrestling: EVE Champion Rhia O’Reilly defeated Cara Noir as part of the EVE vs Wrestle Friends event this past weekend from the Resistance Gallery in Bethnal Green, London. The event saw performers from EVE’s All Female roster take on XWA’s predominately male roster, which included bouts between Jimmy Havoc vs Millie McKenzie and Doug Williams vs ‘Ace of EVE’ SHE-1 Champion Charlie Morgan.
Formerly known as the FWA Championship, the belt holds high regard amongst the UK scene and has been held by the likes of British wrestling legends Doug Williams and Robbie Brookside, Christopher Daniels and new 205 Live General Manager Drake Maverick.
Another former holder of the belt and current NXT Superstar Killian Dain tweeted his congratulations to the enigmatic performer:
Congratulations ?
