Wrestling Arcade is the creative persona of Brendan Docherty, a UK photographer from Sheffield, England by trade who creates retro arcade game versions of classic moments from pro wrestling history, covering multiple generations, from the WWF to indie. He started releasing them in 2015 on Twitter and hasn’t stopped yet.<\/p>\n

He releases all of his content for free, but if you’re a fan, give him a follow on Twitter<\/a>, or even better, buy him a coffee<\/a>.\u00a0The glorious retro feel of the scenes, harken back to the days of Mat Mania<\/strong><\/em> and WWF WrestleFest<\/strong><\/em>, when wrestling was pure entertainment and we didn’t have sites divulging info we barely cared existed. It then wraps it around some of the greatest moments in pro wrestling, from moves in classic matches, to amazing segments, sprinkling just enough nostalgic sugar on it to make you remember why you were a wrestling fan in the first place.<\/p>\n

HERE’S A GLIMPSE OF HIS PAST WORK<\/strong><\/h2>\n
