Pacitti Club

**Pacitti Club** is a stable performing on the YouTube channel *WhatCulture Wrestling*. Set up by Adam Pacitti to combat his rival Adam Blampied as part of the YouTube series 'Adam vs Adam', the stable feuds over the cardboard world title and dominance of the channel with **BX**. It currently contains Adam Pacitti, Jack King and Sam Driver. Former members include Suzie Kennedy.

The stable is a centerpiece of the channel and WCPW. It has held the WhatCulture World Heavyweight Championship on four occasions, and has been in the main event of **WhatCultureMania**, the channel's biggest show of the year.

## **History**

### **Formation (2016)**

Adam Pacitti set up Pacitti club as part of his rivalry with Adam Blampied. It originally contained Adam Pacitti, Jack "five year-old boy" King and Sam "the shreditor" Driver. The group was first alluded to by Adam Blampied in a letter sent by Pacitti, who was ill, during the video ''Adam vs Adam 8' Royal Rumble predictions. The group, first represented by King and Driver, debuted the following week, but were unable to capture the WhatCulture Heavyweight Championship from Blampied .

### **Betrayal and comeback (2016)**

On the episode ''Adam Vs Adam #9: Fastlane Predictions", the group debuted a new member, Suzie "Glasgow Killer" Kennedy. On the Live Reaction to the pay-per-view, Blampied debuted BX (which stood for B-generation-X), a rival stable. Sam was able to defeat Blampied for the championship, but then forfeited it back to Blampied, much to the surprise of Jack. Suzie then low-blowed Jack, revealing that the she and Sam had joined BX. Jack was then kicked in the head by Sam and super kicked by Blampied to 'send a message' to Pacitti'. King then challenged Blampied for the title several times (often losing by interference), before losing his show, Fast Count, in an Iron Man match on WWE 2K16.

King would then challenge Blampied to Wrestlemania predictions at WhatCultureMania on the following episode of Fast Count, which Blampied accepted after being put in a Toddler Lock. Jack won the predictions 5-4, and the title at the event. During the live reactions and forfeit, Sam Driver then rejoined the stable, betraying Blampied in the process after weeks of being verbally abused in videos on the channel. He then delivered a Pacitti Special to the former champion by chokeslamming Blampied through a set of boxes.

### **The return of Pacitti and the birth of WCPW (2016)**

King would go on to be the sole active member of Pacitti club, defending the title at Payback by defeating Blampied in a predictions match, thus dashing Blampied's rematch clause and making him make a top 10 reasons list as to why Jack was better than him. At Extreme Rules, Blampied offered up an ultimatum. He would be allowed another shot at the title and if he could not win the championship, he would no longer be able to challenge for it whilst King was champion. Blampied would go on to beat Jack, pitching a shut-out and capturing the title.

During the award ceremony immediately after, Jack surrendered his championship and while Blampied was celebrating, Adam Pacitti returned after nearly a six-month hiatus, smashing him over the head with his WhatCulture In The Bank briefcase. He then cashed in his title shot, pinning Blampied and bringing the title back to Pacitti Club, along with its leader.

Three days later, Pacitti unveiled WCPW, WhatCulture Wrestling's very own independent wrestling promotion. Pacitti was self-appointed to the General Manager position, and Jack was given a few weeks to get a representative to combat Adam Blampied's bodyguard, Rampage Brown. This resulted in two prospects: Joe Hendry and Big Damo. The two came to blows and decided to settle who would get the shot at Rampage Brown at the first WCPW event.

Big Damo proceeded to beat Joe Henry, and then beat Rampage Brown at the end of the night, bringing the WCPW World Heavyweight Championship into the fold of Pacitti Club as well. Big Damo was given a Pacitti club T-shirt on episode 3 of WCPW Loaded which he went on to wear during his entrance in episode 4.
