Britannia Wrestling Promotions (BWP): We are here today with a film producer and TV personality as well as being the voice of Britannia Wrestling Promotions, Mr Ryan Kift … thanks for taking the time out to speak with us today Kifty, we know how busy you are at the moment with your latest horror film Zombies from Ireland … hows that going?
Ryan Kift (RK): Always got time for you guys! Things are really getting exciting at the moment with our first edit of the film nearly complete. We are working on a trailer now and can’t wait for people to finally get a taste of it!
BWP: When do you expect is to have its premiere showing? And where will that be?
RK: We are looking at a summer release and the premiere will be at an old court house transformed into a party venue. We shot 2 of our scenes there. The zombie jail scene and the Stripper scene. The venue is in Blaenau Ffestiniog and is called CellB.
BWP: That sounds great, we can not wait for the premiere of it! How does producing a horror film and working for S4C TV compare to working with Britannia Wrestling Promotions?
RK: Not too dissimilar really. A common thread that entwines the three is the need and desire to please an audience. I really do think that that is the key to working in either TV, producing films and dealing with people on set etc and ring -announcing/commentating for BWP. If you can’t communicate and make a crowd believe in you and what you are saying then it’s already over with. The same for TV and films.
BWP: Well said. Since your debut as the new Britannia Wrestling Promotions Announcer at Denbigh Town Hall last September how do you feel things are going in Britannia Wrestling at present?
RK: Obviously things have improved since I’m on board, the shows run smoother and are more slick. But I also feel that the roster and the wrestling has upped a gear. I urge anyone to go to any other wrestling show anywhere in the UK run by another company and I bet my favourite hat that it won’t be a patch on a BWP show, bang for your buck and wrestling fix.
BWP: We love your expressions Kifty, thats one of the things that puts you so over with the fans! Of course another Welsh Connection debuted at that same Denbigh show alongside you, star of Zombies from Ireland, Supermodel and S4C TV Star, Miss Sian Davies … who just so happens to be your partner (in crime) as well. Sian add’s a little more sex appeal to the Britannia Wrestling as our Ring Girl, will we ever see her clan a little more lycra than usual and get involved in the in-ring action? BWP could do with some female wrestlers to mix things up a little don’t you think?
RK: Now theres a thought! You will have to ask Sian that question. She has been beating up neighbours and ass kicking lately and that’s just cause they stole her parking space! Which is not really her space as it is infront of her fave shops in town!!
BWP: A question we will certainly ask her directly! You were present at the Awards Ceremony last month in Chester, what is your opinion on the Award winners that night? Did any of your picks come through?
RK: It’s all a bit hazy but a few of my choosen ones did win so I was pleased. Everyone who won did deserve it as I myself had trouble in deciding as the roster has been pumping this year!
BWP: We agree, we found it hard to vote last year as well, which is a massive compliment to the Superstars and staff of BWP. What has been the highlight of your short time so far in Britannia Wrestling Promotions, and why?
RK: Ring announcing and introducing El Generico during his title match at Frith Beach against Pitbull. This was my second time ever with BWP and the expression “In at the deep-end” was never more suitable.
BWP: Steve Saxon is notorious for throwing people in at the deep end, he swears by it! Who do you see as being the ones to watch and breakout stars of 2012 for Britannia Wrestling?
RK: Zack Gibson really shines when he is in the ring at the moment so watch out for some big things from him! Also I think that this could be the year that The Hammer smashes it and dominates the scene, only if he wants it bad enough though as there are a lot of hungry newbies out for his blood!
BWP: Great choices there! Kifty, its been an absolute pleasure as always … thanks again for your time, say ‘Hi’ to Sian for us and can not wait to see the premiere of Zombies from Ireland! Diolch!
RK: It’s been fun. Thanks and no problem, like I said, always got time for BWP. And remember “If you can’t stand the heat, put some factor 30 spf on and take regular sips of water”
