In 2017, both women's wrestling and British professional wrestling in general enjoyed a growth in popularity internationally.[1] The promotion broadcasts shows on internet pay-per-view (iPPV).[6]
The Pro-Wrestling: EVE Championship is a women's professional wrestlingchampionship. Championship reigns are determined by professional wrestling matches, in which competitors are involved in scripted rivalries. These narratives create feuds between the various competitors, which cast them as villains and heroines.
