UCBW

Your official source for news, rumors, and media from the best damn comedy wrestling league in the world.

See the UCBW MegaStars every Thursday at 11 PM at the UCB Theatre's CageMatch, and special Saturdays at midnight for Pay Per View events.

"If you think that pro wrestling—with it's soap opera story arcs, fake moves and silly costumes—couldn't be funnier or more ridiculous than it already is, watch it get mocked by these UCBT performers."
—Time Out New York

"The WWE is pretty hilarious on its own, but the UCB Theatre’s wrestling federation, the UCBW, pays such good attention to the details of the genre, it feels less like a satirical mockery and more of a hyper-hilarious homage to the dramatic sport. It’s impossible not to get caught up in their hysteria."
—New York Press

"The price of admission gets you a whole seat, but you only need the edge."
—Flavorpill

» UCBW: Kicking Ass & Taking Suggestions

At the UCBW Arena’s Del Close Marathon improv festival two weeks ago, all of your favorite MegaStars put aside their differences (for the most part), and performed a series of improvised comedic scenes. Foes struggled mightily not to throw punches, but one-liners instead. The yes-anding didn’t last long, however, as the MegaStars found their true game all along: COMEDY WRASSLIN’!

Check out these photos from a very memorable fifteen minutes.
