British Wrestling

A teenager who weighed nearly 30 stones has turned his life around and lost more than a third of his bodyweight thanks to ­professional wrestling.

Kayden Fraser, who has Asperger’s syndrome, was one of Scotland’s most obese children after gaining weight due to bullying which saw him reach 29st.

But the 15-year-old has shed 11st and is healthier and happier since joining Glasgow School of Wrestling in October 2022.

At Accies’ Stadium show Kayden’s journey reached a pinnacle when he shared the ring with Hornswoggle.

Kayden wrestled in front of 400 people in an eight-man tag-team match.

He has drawn huge ­inspiration from Hornswoggle, who, at just 4ft 4in, spent about 10 years in the WWE as a ­leprechaun-style ­character and overcame his own physical hurdles to achieve success in the ring.
