Relwyskow & Green Promotions have the longest pedigree of them all. George Sr took up promoting in the north of England and Scotland in the 1930s, with one of his young proteges being his son, George. Following George’s death in 1942 the business was taken over by his wife and son, George. Like his father George promoted in partnership with various people around the country before finally entering a long term business partnership with Arthur Green, whose background was in boxing. The two men were continuing what had begun a generation earlier when Arthur’s father, Jack, had previously promoted in partnership with the elder Relwyskow.
Relwyskow and Green presented good quality shows around the north of England and Scotland for half a century. They upheld the good reputation of professional wrestling at all times.
Relwyskow and Green were the only members of Joint Promotions to retain independent ownership throughout the Mount Evans era, resisting the clutches of the William Hill company. Consequently when Max Crabtree took ownership of Joint Promotions in 1986 Relwyskow and Green remained independently owned.
Relwyskow & Green Promotions, under the sole Directorship of Ann DeRelwyskow, endured until 1992, when it was dissolved on 27th October.
