Cameras follow them as they travel to the USA, get trained and mentored by famous names from the world of UK and US wrestling and meet TNA president Dixie Carter.

The finalists will enter the TNA developmental system to hone their wrestling skills and be put to the test by legendary British wrestlers and current TNA stars including Rollerball Rocco and Hulk Hogan.

Culminating with a match at the TNA Impact Zone in Orlando, Florida, they compete to impress the judges and Carter. 

It’s an opportunity of a lifetime for the professional wrestlers. At the end of the series the successful candidate(s) will sign a TNA contract and have the chance to appear in front of a home crowd on the TNA World Tour, which arrives at London’s Wembley Arena in January 2013.
