You may have seen the exciting news recently that we have our first ever Welsh WWE Champions!

If you’ve never had the chance to witness South Wales Subculture (Andrews & Morgan Webster’s Tag Team name) in action – you’re missing out. Highflyers – and hard hitters with a proud Welsh background. Andrews & Morgan Webster, who hail from Cardiff and Blaenau Gwent, respectively, will visit the Family Stand tomorrow afternoon, and have told us how much they’re looking forward to meeting City supporters in the concourse ahead of kick-off. They’ve made the Motorpoint go crazy – and are ready for another home coming welcome. If you’re a big wrestling fan, then this is an opportunity that you won’t want to miss. Congrats on the title win, lads!
