Professional wrestling career

[edit]

Independent circuit (2006–2016, 2022–present)

[edit]

Andrews started training at the age of 13, upon discovery of the NWA Wales training school in Newport. As well as training there under Edd Ferris, Andrews would travel to Kent three times a year to attend NWA UK Hammerlock's training camps, where he learned off the likes of John Ryan, Paul Tracey and Andre Baker.[5] It is here that he met Zack Sabre Jr., who later became Andrews's mentor.

It was for NWA Wales that Andrews made his wrestling debut, appearing in a battle royal in 2006. Shortly afterwards, Andrews began competing under a mask, using the name "The Lightning Kid". He has stated that this was to hide his young age from audiences.[5] Andrews' rise as The Lightning Kid was gradual, with most his appearances in 2006 and 2007 limited to promotions in South Wales.[6] His first appearance outside Wales was at the 2007 Holbrooks Festival in Coventry, where he first met his long-time friend (and wrestling rival), Pete Dunne.[7][8]

January 2008 saw Andrews make his first international appearance, when he was flown out to Madrid to compete for La Super Wrestling Alliance (SWA).[9]

In 2009, Andrews first began to gain exposure on Britain's independent wrestling scene, making appearances for British Championship Wrestling and Premier British Wrestling; where he competed against Noam Dar.[10] In November 2009, Andrews wrestled at IPW:UK's event in Chatham, Kent, against Zack Sabre Jr.[11]

In 2010, Andrews started to appear regularly for Coventry-based Triple X Wrestling. He appeared as part of a stable called "The NexXxus", a parody of the "Nexus" faction in the WWE. Under the name "Mandrews Tarver", Andrews joined fellow 'rookies' Wade Helix (Helix), Hitch Sheffield (Wild Boar), Phil Otunga (Phil Ward) and Gav Gabriel (Morgan Webster) as the group ambushed and attacked various members of the roster. On 15 October 2010, Andrews challenged Andy Wild for the SPWO UK Championship in a losing effort.[12][13][14]

In 2011, Andrews debuted for Insane Championship Wrestling in Glasgow,[15] attempted to qualify for the Union of European Wrestling Alliances European Cruiserweight Championship tournament[16][17] and competed at Premier British Wrestling's annual "King of Cruisers" six-way match in Irevine.[18]

Andrews also made two appearances for the newly reformed Frontier Wrestling Alliance, which included an encounter against long-time rival Wild Boar at Thorpe Park.[19]

Andrews started to make appearances for Preston City Wrestling, where he twice came up short in encounters for Bubblegum's PCW Cruiserweight Championship, including in a three-way match that also included Austin Aries.[20] Andrews' match against Kris Travis at "PCW SuperShow 4" was nominated for "UK Match of the Year" in the Fighting Spirit Magazine Reader Awards 2014, the second year running Andrews had been nominated for the honour.[21]

In Attack! Pro Wrestling, Andrews continued heavy involvement in the creative direction of the organisation.[22][23][24] May saw Andrews reprise his role as Pikachu, as Attack! presented the second instalment of their popular video game themed shows, "Press Start Level 2". Taking on Arthur Klauser-Saxon (Tyler Bate), who was styled as Machoke, Andrews picked up the win to gain the hold of the 24:7 Championship for a second time. As with his first reign, he did not hold the title for long – with T-Bone winning the title almost immediately, styled as Bowser. At the following show, "The Weird And Wonderful World of Attack! Pro Wrestling", Andrews again regained the title, defeating current holders Sam Bailey and Zack Gibson in a soccer-themed tag team match, alongside Pete Dunne. For a third time, Andrews lost the title almost as quickly as he had won it, with Lana Austin and Nixon Newell striking the same evening to take the belt.[25]

Andrews also made another short trip to the US independents in 2014, which included a dark match appearance at DREAMWAVE's "Good As Gold" event in LaSalle, Illinois.[26] In addition to the USA trip, Andrews also made his debut for Germany's award-winning Westside Xtreme Wrestling. Appearing on the Mülheim leg of the "wXw Drive of Champions Tour", Andrews teamed with Pete Dunne and Chris Brookes, losing out to Big Daddy Walter, Axel Dieter Jr. and Da Mack.[27]

Andrews' most successful year-to-date earned him three nominations at the Fighting Spirit Magazine Reader Awards 2014, where he was shortlisted for "Best UK Wrestler" and "Best UK Tag Team" (with Eddie Dennis), alongside his "UK Match of the Year" nomination for his PCW encounter against Kris Travis. Meanwhile, the online message board UKFF voted Andrews the 3rd best wrestler in the UK, with a series of complimentary comments, including: "Mark's the poster boy of the resurgence British wrestling is seeing at the moment. Talented, likeable, and genuinely cool."[28]

After signing a contract with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, it was confirmed that Andrews would be moving stateside. Andrews' "home" promotion, Attack! Pro Wrestling, hosted a farewell show on 24 January 2015. Titled "Mandrews Goes To America", the show was held at Cathays Community Centre in Cardiff, a small venue just minutes from where Andrews grew up. Headlined by the promise of Andrews vs his long-time friend Pete Dunne, tickets for the show sold out in under 15 minutes.[29][citation needed] At the event, Andrews defeated Dunne who viciously attacked Andrews afterwards.[30]

In early 2016, Andrews and Nixon Newell formed the tag team Bayside High and on 27 March 2016 defeated #CCK (Chris Brookes and Kid Lykos) for the Attack! Tag Team Trophy Championship in a Ladder match.[31] They lost the titles to #CCK on 21 August 2016 at a rematch in Cardiff.[32]

Chikara (2011–2015)

[edit]

In August 2011, Andrews travelled to Pennsylvania, to make his debut for Chikara. Granted a place in the Young Lions Cup IX, Andrews' first round match was a four-way eliminator, taking on Tadasuke, Nick Jackson and Sean South. Tadasuke won the match, last eliminating Andrews on the route to victory.[33]

In 2014, he appeared in Chikara's yearly King of Trios tournament as Team UK with Pete Dunne and Damian Dunne. The team defeated The Bloc Party in the first round, advancing to the quarter-finals, where they were then felled by The Devastation Corporation. On the third night of the tournament, Andrews appeared in singles action, defeating Oliver Grimsly.[34]

Andrews was part of Chikara's first ever tour of the UK, gaining a victory over Silver Ant at the show of 31 April 2015 in Cardiff, Wales. For the second year running, he took part in Chikara's King of Trios tournament, teaming with 'Flash' Morgan Webster and Pete Dunne as Team Attack. They lost their first round match against the League of Nations. However, during that weekend Andrews also competed for Chikara's annual Rey de Voladores title, winning the tournament by defeating Shynron in the finals.[35]

Progress Wrestling (2012–2022)

[edit]

In 2012, Andrews debuted for Progress Wrestling at Chapter 2, defeating Wild Boar Mike Hitchman.[36] Andrews returned at Chapter 3 where he was victorious over Xander Cooper,[37] before then entering the inaugural National Progression Series tournament. In his first-round match at Chapter 4, Andrews defeated Will Ospreay.[38] Both men received a standing ovation from the Progress fans after the match.[39]

In 2013, Andrews won the Natural Progression Series, defeating Jonathan Windsor in the second round[40] and Paul Robinson in the final,[41] claiming the trophy and a guaranteed title shot. Andrews cashed in his shot that evening, defeating Rampage Brown to win the title.[41] However, the reign was short lived, as Jimmy Havoc cashed in another guaranteed title shot that same evening, stealing the title after a series of chair shots.[42][43]

Andrews received a re-match for the Progress Championship at Chapter 13, which he ultimately lost after interference from Paul Robinson.[44] Over the course of the year, Andrews also teamed with friend Eddie Dennis, entering the Progress Tag Team Championship tournament held at Chapters 11 and 12. The pair, known as FSU, won the tournament and were crowned the promotion's first-ever tag team champions.[45] This made Andrews Progress' first ever Triple Crown champion, having won the Natural Progression Series, the Progress Championship and the Progress Tag Team Championship. Eddie and Andrews successfully defended the titles a further two times in 2014[46][47]

In January 2015, at Andrews' last Progress show before beginning work for TNA in America, he and Eddie Dennis were scheduled to face each other for sole possession of the tag team titles. However, the pair were attacked by villainous stable the Faceless, causing an impromptu match to ensue for the tag team titles which the Faceless won. Andrews and Dennis then faced off in a match during the second half of the show, which Andrews lost.[48]

Andrews returned to Progress in November 2015, saving Progress Champion Will Ospreay from a post-match beating by Paul Robinson. Andrews then requested a title shot, pointing out that when the two had previously faced each other in Progress, Ospreay hadn't won either of their lauded matches. Andrews subsequently lost his granted title match against Ospreay at the January 2016 show,[49] though the match achieved the number six spot on the Top 10 Progress Matches of 2015 as voted for by the Progress fans.[50]

Andrews subsequently became embroiled in a feud with the Origin – the stable previously known as the Faceless – teaming with Eddie Dennis and Jack Gallagher at the first ever Progress show in Manchester, losing a six-man tag team match to the Origin team of Dave Mastiff, Nathan Cruz and El Ligero.[51] Andrews and Dennis, as FSU, were then granted two shots at the tag team titles in early 2016, including a no disqualification match, both of which they lost to Cruz and Ligero.[52][53]

In May 2016, Andrews entered Progress's Super Strong Style 16 Tournament for the first time, losing in the first round to Chris Hero.[54] However, as Mark Haskins had to drop out due to illness, Andrews won Haskins' spot in the tournament via a ten-man scramble match. He went on to beat Mikey Whiplash in the quarter-finals and Zack Gibson in the semi-finals, before losing to Tommy End in the tournament final.[55] During the PROGRESS vs. Smash Wrestling event in September 2016, Andrews competed at all three shows – losing to Brent Banks[56] and winning matches against Scotty O'Shea[57] and Kevin Bennett.[58] At Chapter Thirty-Six at the Brixton Academy, Andrews teamed with Eddie Dennis, Jack Gallagher and Damon Moser in a losing effort against the Origin (Nathan Cruz, El Ligero, Dave Mastiff & Zack Gibson).[59] At Chapter 38, Andrews and Matt Cross wrestled for the number one contendership for the Smash Wrestling Championship, a match Cross won.[60]

Andrews became number one contender for the Progress World Championship in January 2017, by winning the Thunderbastard match against seven other opponents at Chapter 43.[61] Andrews faced Pete Dunne in a losing effort for the title at Chapter 46[62] and also lost when facing Tyler Bate for the WWE UK Championship at the Progress Orlando show held in March 2017 over Wrestlemania weekend in Florida.[63] After Andrews and Mark Haskins fought to a draw for the number one contendership for the Progress Championship at Chapter 47,[64] they both faced Pete Dunne in a three-way match for the title at Chapter 48 where Dunne was victorious.[65] At 2017's Super Strong Style 16 Tournament, Andrews lost in the first round to Flamita.[66]

At Chapter 55, held at Alexandra Palace, Andrews won an 8-Man Scramble Match, again becoming the number contender for the Progress World Championship [67] before being attacked by long-time tag team partner Eddie Dennis. At Chapter 57, Andrews unsuccessfully challenged Travis Banks for the Progress World Title.[68] At Chapter 62, Andrews teams with Danny Jones losing to Jimmy Havoc and Mark Haskins.[69] At chapter 63, Andrews defeated Morgan Webster.[70] At Chapter 64, Andrews participated in the 2018 Thunderbastard match, the match was won by Webster while Andrews was eliminated by Tyler Bate.[71] At Chapter 66, Andrews was defeated by Pete Dunne in a match that also involved Morgan Webster.[72] Andrews then entered to the 2018 Super Strong Style 16, being eliminated by Angelico in the first round.[73] At Progress Hello Wembley, Andrews wrestled against his former tag team partner Eddie Dennis in a Tables, ladders and chairs match, with Andrews being defeated.[74]
