Help Shane Hook Get the ACL & MCL Surgery He Needs

At just 23 years old, one of the UK's breakout wrestlers, Shane Hook is facing major surgery and needs our help.

Shane has been one of the fastest-rising wrestlers on the UK wrestling scene, and it seemed like 2026 was about to be a huge year for one of the nicest people in our industry.

But in January, all that changed.

Unfortunately, at Rev Pro's Live in Coventry show, Shane suffered a devastating knee injury, rupturing both his ACL and MCL and leaving his future uncertain.

In an instant, he has lost all of his 2026 bookings and the momentum he worked so hard to build. Anyone who’s seen Shane wrestle knows how much this means to him and how hard he's worked.

Now Shane requires major surgery to repair the significant damage to his knee. Following this, his doctor estimates he will need an additional 9–12 months of rehabilitation and recovery before he can return to the ring.

He is currently on the NHS waiting list with no confirmed surgery date.

This means:

How You Can Help

After meeting with a private consultant, Shane could have his surgery in as little as a few weeks, meaning he can get on the road to recovery and back to doing what he loves — entertaining you.

We're looking to raise the cost for Shane to have his surgery privately, allowing him to begin recovery sooner.

If we're lucky enough to raise any additional funds, these will go to Shane to help with physiotherapy costs and lost bookings/income while he's recovering.

Why We're Helping Shane

Anyone who has met Shane will know he's one of the kindest, hardest-working, and most genuine people in UK wrestling.

He has already worked hard to overcome a major setback in his career. 2026 was meant to be the year it all paid off. Instead, through no fault of his own, he now faces a long and uncertain road back.

In addition to this fundraiser, we'll be launching merchandise, the proceeds of which will go directly to Shane.

We know times are hard, but if you are able and can give what you can afford, no matter the amount, you'll be making a difference.

If you're unable to help financially, please consider sharing this GoFundMe on social media to help us spread the word.

Shane gives so much to wrestling, especially helping younger wrestlers, now we have the chance to help him.

About us and where your money will go

Shane would never directly ask people for help, even if he could really use it right now. This GoFundMe is being organised by a collaboration between New Wave Wrestling Schools and promoters. All of your donations will go directly to Shane.
