Wrestling Heritage welcomes memories, further information and corrections.



The name British Wrestling Federation had originally been coined in October, 1943 as an organisation of wrestlers. The name was revived by a group of promoters in 1958. Following the demise of the British Wrestling Federation in 1962 when all but Lincoln and International began to work in co-operation with Joint Promotions the name remained dormant until assumed later in the 1960s by wrestler/promoter Orig Williams.
The BWF of 1961 listed their members as:
Paul Lincoln Management
Matsport
Devereux
Conrad Davis
International Promotions
Premier
Twentieth Century Promotions
19398
