Australia’s wildest night of rock and wrestling entertainment is back! WRESTLEROCK returns to Richmond's iconic Corner Hotel, Friday August 22nd, with special guests X-HALEN performing live!
After celebrating 18 years of hard knocks and hard rock, WRESTLEROCK will be bringing all the bone-crunching, power-bombing action that you’ve come to love and expect from Australia's wildest night out! In the main event, the WRESTLEROCK Champion JAKE TAYLOR defends against GORE!
Taylor has been making a long list of enemies during his time as champion, and has been ducking and weaving as many challengers as he can, but has his luck now run out as he faces the unpredictable and destructive Snuff Daddy?
And get ready to ROCK, as the ultimate Van Halen tribute show hits the stage for an electrifying night of legendary riffs and unforgettable energy! X-HALEN's powerhouse performance celebrates the iconic sound of the David Lee Roth era of Van Halen.
Experience blazing guitar solos, thunderous drums and high-octane vocals as X-Halen puts on a performance that brings the spirit, sound and the unmistakable swagger of the originals to life!
Since 2006, WRESTLEROCK has been the MECCA of LIVE ROCK N WRESTLING mayhem, where performers from all over the country (and internationally) have come to take part in and compete in Australia’s most out of control SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT event.
The Band Room at the Corner Hotel in Richmond is an iconic live music venue. Opened in 1871, the Corner Hotel is one of Melbourne's oldest pubs.
The Corner Hotel remodelled the venue to incorporate a live music stage In 1984. This was during the peak of the Aus Pub Rock scene popularised by artists such as The Screaming Jets, Sunny boys, The Angels and Hoodoo Gurus. In 1988, Dave Gilmour, the lead guitarist from psychedelic rock band Pink Floyd and Mick Jagger, the lead of The Rolling Stones, separately performed secret shows at the Corner.
There are a number of historical moments associated with the Corner Hotel. The White Stripes created the Seven Nation Army guitar riff during sound check before their show at The Corner. The band room of the corner has been used in multiple music videos for U2, The Living End and many more. The Corner Hotel has won or been nominated for the Best Venue over 500 capacity every year between 2016-2021.
