before his arm locks.'

History
With no permanent place to call home, The Spotland Scrappers searched far and wide for a venue to train, compete and pursue their passion for wrestling. After founding the group in Spotland Mill, Lancashire, they discovered The Loft in 2013 - a disused hat factory, stripped back to its bare form. The raw honesty of the place set a light in the founding Scrappers and as the team have developed, so has The Loft. Once just a dusty shell, Team Spotland have re-ignited The Loft with a wrestling ring, grapplezone, oilzone, and mutli-gym, and an atmosphere of passion skill and energy. Moores Hat Factory closed in 1970 and today, part of it lives on as our wrestling venue.
The lads enjoy going head-to-head in a range of settings & styles including ring, mats, oil, outdoors, comic book, lift and carry, scissors and many more.

Reviews
'Spotland has always been one of my favourites. With attractive fighters, great action, and very affordable prices, they have nowhere to go but up!
They have recently added new talent to their roster and overhauled their website as well.
I'm very excited to see what the fellas have in store for us!
I will be closely following them for sure!'

Cavey Awards 2020
Favorite Surprise:
Rob Palomino vs. AJ Johnson
'AJ is a delight. Rob's so cute. The biggest difference between the two studs is that Rob is wrestling to win and AJ just enjoys the act of hurting his opponent. Rob's about the destination and AJ's about the journey.'
'Spotland was a new adventure
for me this year.
.... pro fun.'
