Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment: Coming to a Venue near YOU! Josh Bellic, Reporting

OK..Sooo… It has been said that I am a man of rather eclectic tastes in entertainment. But come on!  Who doesn’t enjoy watching a smack-down wrestling show with beefy men and sexy ladies throwing each other around the wrestling ring?  Even those who won’t admit it publicly find this one of the world’s most fascinating sports.  And now you no longer have to travel long distances, find a place to park, and hike into the arena.  Now RWE can come to YOU.  I recently caught up with Fyre Ember, the Executive LIVE Events Director at RWE, and asked her to share their story with the approximately quarter million people who view our publication each month.

Josh (Thomas1 Bellic) (JB):     Greetings Frye.  Thanks for agreeing to chat with us today.  So, tell our readers, please, just what is this “Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment” that is all the buzz about anyway?

Fyre Ember (FE):     Josh, thanks so much for having me here today—I really appreciate it.

Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment (RWE) is Premier Wrestling’s touring show, and honestly, it’s the one place where you’ll see talent from all of Premier’s brands—Attitude, Overload, All Victory Wrestling, and Rise—all mixing it up and competing in front of crowds across the SL Grid.

Unplugged will soon officially rebranded as Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment, and the name really fits what it’s become. The RWE truck rolls in, we set up, put on a high-energy show, then pack it all up and head back out on the road to the next stop. It’s all about bringing that full Premier vibe to different locations—same great action, just more up close, more interactive, and right in front of the fans.

JB:     How did you ever come up with such a creative way to bring professional wrestling to “the masses” anyway?

FE:     Honestly? It came from seeing what we already had and realizing we could do more.

At Premier Wrestling, we have all these amazing brands—Attitude, Overload, All Victory Wrestling, and Rise—but they were all happening in their own spaces. So we thought: why not bring it all together and take it to the fans?

That’s how Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment rebrand was born. The RWE truck rolls in, we set up, put on a high-energy show, then pack up and head to the next stop—mixing up matchups and giving fans across the SL Grid a Premier experience like no other.

And we’re taking it even further—imagine having Dany Thunder sign autographs at your child’s birthday party, or The Ace reveal your baby’s gender. The possibilities are crazy, and we’re so excited for it!

JB:     I understand Wrestling has been around SecondLife for years?  Can you share with us some of the highlights of that history?

FE:     Wrestling has been part of Second Life for 18 years, growing from small local shows to full-scale productions with multiple brands, storylines, and passionate fans.

For Premier Wrestling, the journey started with Overload, then Attitude, followed by Rise, and our newest brand, All Victory Wrestling. We’re also thrilled to welcome back Alpin Criss, the grandfather of SL wrestling, who created the first wrestling HUD and helped get everything started 18 years ago.

Fans have stuck with us through every twist and high-flying moment, and that loyalty keeps this world alive. SL wrestling has always been about creativity, community, and giving people experiences they can’t get anywhere else—and that’s exactly what we bring to Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment.

JB:     What types of clients might be most interested in hosting a RWE event, and who is your expected audience?

FE:     That’s an easy one—everyone! Haha. I’m laughing, but I’m also completely serious. Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment is for anyone. Whether you’re looking to bring traffic to your land, raise money for charity, or just enjoy a fun Saturday afternoon, RWE is there for you.

We can bring full wrestling shows, birthday parties, gender reveals, marriage proposals, meet & greets, or even just for someone who’s feeling lazy and doesn’t want to leave their land but still wants to watch a wrestling show—give me a call!

We’ve got fans who’ve been watching wrestling since childhood, and others who’ve never seen a single match before—and they end up falling in love with what we do. That’s what makes this so special. The Premier Wrestling fan base is truly something else—they’re passionate, supportive, and without a doubt, the greatest.

JB:     Do you have your own cadre of wrestlers. Or can your matches involve wrestlers from other venues and clubs?

FE:     Premier Wrestling is home to four full brands — Attitude, Overload AVW and Rise — each with its own stacked roster and unique identity. Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment is where it all comes together—a place where everyone is welcome. Alongside our incredible talent, we open the door to wrestlers from other federations to jump in, sign up, and be part of the experience. We’ve already had several competitors come through for a few shows, and it’s been a blast—not just for them, but for our roster and the fans as well. It’s all about creating something fun, collaborative, and exciting for everyone involved.

JB:     I imagine this is a fairly complicated maneuver, what with Wrestlers, announcers, stage hands, set designers.  Who are some of the key players in this endeavor, and what do they do?

FE:     Oh, absolutely—it’s a massive operation! Every show is a moving machine with a lot of people making it all happen. Our bookers and directors plan out the matches and storylines, making sure the action flows just right. Production handles the lighting, cameras, and sound, while our referees and commentators make sure the in-ring action is seen and heard exactly the way it should be. And of course, the wrestlers bring it all to life in the ring—they’re the heart and soul of the show.

At the center of it all is our Tribal Chief, Vince Aftermath. He’s the guiding force, the one whose vision and leadership elevate everything we do. Without him—or the entire team working together—you wouldn’t get the high-energy, seamless experience that fans see at every Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment event.

JB:     OK now…just between you and me (and our quarter-million monthly views) Is this Wrestling for real?  Or are the events rigged and the eventual champions predetermined before the first “double-axel-triple-whammy” contender hits the mat?

FE:     Haha, I love this question… but you’re really asking a lady to give away secrets? I don’t think so. 😉

In Second Life, wrestling is less about physical strength and more about mental performance. Everything comes down to timing, coordination, and creativity. Performers have to stay sharp, work their HUDs, and keep the match flowing—while also bringing charisma, strong mic skills, and a standout look.

The crowd plays a huge role too, feeding the energy with every cheer, boo, and chant, making everything feel larger than life.

At the end of the day, it’s not just about winning or losing—it’s about the stories, the emotion, and the unforgettable moments that make it all so exciting.

JB:     This sounds like a lot of fun.  How do I find out where and when your events are to take place?

FE:     I can honestly say I’ve never had this much fun in the five years I’ve been part of this—it’s been an incredible ride from day one. Every show brings something new, and being part of that energy week after week is what makes it so special.

We also have a website that keeps track of all our weekly shows, including Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment, so fans can stay up to date, catch what they’ve missed, and follow along as everything unfolds. On top of that, we have a YouTube channel where you can watch Attitude, Overload, and more, along with some of the fun and creative antics our team comes up with.

And we’ve got a Discord group too, where fans can find out when and where we’ll be on any given day—so no matter where the Roadshow goes, you won’t miss a thing.

JB:     Do you have any websites or Social Media platforms where people can learn more about RWE?

FE:     Oh, absolutely—Premier Wrestling is all over social media. We’re on Instagram, X, Primfeed, and Facebook, so fans can stay connected no matter where they are.

As I mentioned before, we also have a website that keeps track of all our weekly shows, including Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment, and a YouTube channel where fans can catch Attitude, Overload, and more.

Between all of that, plus our Discord community, there are plenty of ways for fans to follow along, stay updated, and be part of everything we’re doing.

JB:     Any last words you would like to share with our SL enquirer readers?

FE:     Honestly, just a huge thank you. The support from the Second Life community—and the Lindens themselves—means the world to us. Whether you’ve been watching for years or you’re just discovering Premier Wrestling for the first time, there’s a place for you here. We couldn’t do any of this without the fans, the creators, and the platform that allows us to bring these shows to life.

If you haven’t checked out Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment yet, now’s the time. You never know where we’ll pop up next, from full-scale wrestling events to birthday parties, gender reveals, or even spontaneous shows on your own land. Follow us on social media—Instagram, X, Primfeed, and Facebook—join our Discord, check out the website and YouTube channel, and get involved with everything Premier Wrestling has to offer.

At the end of the day, it’s about the fans, the energy, the stories, and creating moments that people remember long after the match is over. We’re here to entertain, to innovate, and to keep pushing the boundaries of what wrestling in Second Life can be. And trust me… we’re just getting started.

So there you have it, folks.  Straight from the mouth of one who knows.  And if you are reading this on the internet, you know it MUST be true.  So come on out and catch one of these unbelievable shows put on by Roadshow Wrestling Entertainment. You’ll be glad ya did. 

And when you do, tell ‘em Josh sent ya.

Be there!  Aloha!

PREMIER WRESTLING: THE PREMIER ENTERTAINMENT IN SECONDLIFE – JOSH (THOMAS1 BELLIC) REPORTING





Just when you think you have seen it all, heard it all, done it all in SL.  Guess what? You haven’t. I’m talking to the tens of thousands of you out there who have never observed a wrestling match in SL.  Premier Wrestling has elevated this contact sport to an art form seldom seen anywhere on the Grid today. Their uniquely modern treatment of a sport that is as old as mankind is truly worth your time to see. 


The owners Vince Aftermath and Trey Steele-Legendary™  (DrNeurotic Resident) have combined experience of almost 20 years in SL wrestling.  The Chief Operating Officer, Jasmine Tryce, has also been in SL wrestling for over 5 years. Recently I had the very real pleasure of meeting these folks, along with Premier wrestler Shereif “The Ace” and they shared with me some of the reasons for the success enjoyed by Premier Wrestling in SecondLife.

Josh Bellic (JB):  How long have you been involved with Premier Wrestling in SL? 


Vince Aftermath (VA):  I've been involved with Premier since the very beginning which was about a year ago. Trey Steele and I sat down together in real life and said “Let's do it”. While I was away for while dealing with the real world I had a tremendous amount of support from so many of my friends who wanted me to return in some way shape or form.  Some of you reading this may know me from the VAW days when I was the owner there. I believe when VAW was around it changed the game in many areas. We created the first Fan Interaction HUD and we were the only federation at the time to travel from Sim to Sim for almost an entire year all around Second Life. Now I’m back...Trey and I came back into the game with a different perspective on how SL Wrestling could be presented, taking our craft to a whole new level!





JB:  I understand there are several wrestling Sims in SL.  How is what you have here any different from all the other wrestling venues out there?


Shereif “The Ace” (SA):  Most wrestling shows are live shows only, fans go watch live.  Premier wrestling is different that its main focus is its YouTube channel.  We still have fans come and watch but with a limit of 15 tickets per show, every show we do is fully taped and uploaded online for our wider range fans to watch. Also a major difference is that we are the only federation that pays its staff and wrestlers per show


JB:  You limit your ticket sales for events to only 15 people? Why is that?


Jasmine Tryce (JT):  We only limit each episode show to fifteen people because we want to keep the lag down to a minimum so the wrestlers can perform their matches to the best of their ability, without being hindered by the monster called lag. We also do what is called a  “House Show”. This is a show we usually have off-sim and sponsor land. This is to help them not only bring traffic to their land but it also helps up get the word out about SL wrestling and Premier in general. Anyone can have a show at their land for a small fee, they just need to get in contact with me.


SA:  Since our priority is on the quality of the videos.. we don't want the sim or the performers to lag when too many fans attend at same time. You said we limit it to 15, but it's more like we removed the limit all together and upload to YouTube so even 100 or 200 can watch without any lag issues.





JB:  How can our readers learn of upcoming events? 


VA:  YouTube is our main network so please please please Subscribe. You can also follow us on our Website. So why are we pushing YouTube? By being on YouTube we are able to capture many fans across the world and not just in Second Life. This allows us to not only show them what Premier Wrestling can do but can also show everyone just how powerful the Second Life engine is. By doing this more people will come into SL for the first time wanting to participate in what Second Life has to offer. That is a good thing Josh!




JB:  Vince, who would you say is the greatest wrestler of all SL Time?


VA:  I'm not entirely sure, that is a very interesting question. There are three things that make a good wrestler into a star. First, you have to have the look..meaning that you have to stand out from the crowd.  Second, is voicing... You connect better with the fans when you are able to talk and show your emotion. A lot of people use text while calling out their foe but that doesn't have the same effect as voicing. Last but not least is in-ring performance.  Back in the day it wasn't such a big deal. Everyone had the same moveset for the most part but now, thanks to Team Wildfire and specifically the Prime Hud, you are able to do things that at one point seemed impossible to do in Second Life. If you have two out of three of these, you are on your way to becoming a huge star in the Second Life Wrestling business.





 JB:  Are there prizes for winning?  And if so, who funds those prizes?


Trey Steele (DrNeurotic Resident) (TS):  The prize for winning, is well.. You move up in standings. Each match you compete in could put you closer to the ultimate prize, the World Heavyweight Championship for the men and the Women's Championship for the women.


SA:  Winning or losing doesn’t matter in our business, it's not a competition, it's a performance.  We all work together (some in backstage and some in ring) to make the perfect show come to life every week so fans can enjoy it.  Everyone who works gets paid by Premier Wrestling. We have partners sponsoring us in return for getting promoted on our shows, on our social medias and in our videos. We can even go throw a show on their lands to bring them traffic.




JB:  In RL Wrestling, it is widely assumed that the matches are all "fixed"  and the winner is usually the one with the most elaborate costume. So, your secret is safe with me (and our 30,000 viewers each month)....Are the results of Premier Wrestling Matches "pre-determined"? 


VA:  Haha.  Well there is only one way to find out. To all 30,000 of you reading this  we are always hiring. We are always looking for that next star that is ready to make an impact in Premier Wrestling. If anyone wants to know, including you, Josh, sign up and tell me how your first match goes. Hahaha.


JT:  Well, let me ask you this? Would a magician tell you how he does his tricks? SecondLife Wrestling is an art form. It is a sport, it is also a skill that people work very hard to hone and perfect. Wrestlers work tirelessly to perfect their match and make it look flawless. They do it by hard work and dedication - Upgrading their moves, working on their ring skills and their presence. Are the results of Premier Wrestling matches pre-determined you ask? I ask you:  Does it really matter as long as the fans are enjoying what they are seeing and having fun at the shows?


TS:  Pre-determined?! I tell you what.. You step into the ring with me and I'll let you decide if its pre-determined or not. Lol


JB:  Thanks for that generous offer Trey, but I think I will take a “pain-check” on that, if its OK with you. Anything else you guys would like to share with our SLE Readers?


JT:  Join our in world group and go to a live house show and judge for yourselves. I think you will like what you see and if you would like to get involved we are always looking for wrestlers commentators, valets and also now extras for our shows. So if you would like to join the fastest growing wrestling federation in SecondLife, please IM me Jasmine Tryce and I can let you know how. And also check us out on YouTube, FaceBook, Twitter and our in world fan group. Thank you for your time.
