Joshua Jesse Chetty, known as “Joshua The Bull”, took on El Bandolero from the United Kingdom in his match. Chetty wrestled under the World Association of Wrestling South Africa (Wawsa) banner.

El Bandolero is an experienced wrestling superstar on the circuit in the United Kingdom. It was a tough battle as I am not just representing my hometown, but my country, as it was Wawsa vs World Association Wrestling UK,” he said.

Chetty added that South Africa had welcomed a number of wrestlers from all over the world.

“We had [participants] like Saraya Knight, who is the mother of former WWE and AEW wrestler Saraya [both have the same names]. We had PJ Knight, Scottish superstar Drew Marshall, Kobe Nitro and Oscar Hyde — who are a successful tag team from the UK,” he said.

Chetty added that despite his nerves, it was a truly momentous occasion in his life.

Chetty added that he was looking forward to his future endeavours in the sport.

“It’s an honour and privilege because I have been selected but it comes with a lot of pressure since I was representing the country. I feel like my hard work is paying off, but I have to work even harder because I am going up against world-class athletes. I will be aiming to fight bigger battles to win championships and awards,” he added.

According to Mark Beale, the CEO of Wawsa and promoter of WrestleMonster, Chetty has risen through the ranks over the past few years.

The wrestling  is part of the Sunfest Multi Sporting Festival to be held at the Colosseum Reale in Roodeplaat, Tshwane on May 18.

The man from Chatsworth will take the ring against a wrestler by the name of The Loudmouth, who will enjoy home-Province support in the capital.

“Loudmouth himself recently defeated a wrestler from the United Kingdom who goes by the name of Mitchelle Star. To win against overseas wrestlers you must be good. Therefore it will be interesting coming up against him (Loudmouth) in his home province,” said The Bull.

Reflecting on the Gqeberha event, The Bull said he is expecting his victory to open more doors for him in wrestling.

“This win opens up more doors. I did this for my country, South Africa. It was an honour representing my country. This win is very important and it actually means the world to me.This was the biggest match and win of my wrestling career, going up against El Bandolero ” he beamed.

The Bull has vast experience in wrestling and is a regular name in the World Association of Wrestling South Africa (Wawsa) events.

“I went up against Allessio, Zizou Middoux and The X-Terminator at Wrestle Monster five. These are international wrestling superstars. Zizou wrestled at R.O.H (Ring of Honour) and X-Terminator wrestled in the US and he has defeated ex-WWE superstar Jack Swagger and also fought Bobby Lashley,” said The Bull.

“I won the Champions of War Tournament in Johannesburg last year. I  came up against the X-Terminator in the final and that win didn’t come without controversies since he (the X-Terminator) insisted that he kicked out at two but the CEO of Wawsa, Mark Beale came to the ring and declared me the Winner.
