Hi, I’m Derek.

Irish Wrestle Talk is my corner of the wrestling conversation.
I’m a wrestling fan from Ireland. I love looking back at the characters, rivalries and moments that made us fans, and talking about where wrestling is going next.
You’ll find opinions, memories and conversations here, from classic WWF and WWE to AEW and the talent on our own doorstep. You don’t have to agree with every take. That’s part of the fun.
