Hall of Fame

The WEBBS Hall Of Fame was created by Soke Bryan Cheek to reward distinguished Martial Artists from around the world for their dedication and valued contributions to our world of Martial Arts.

These students of the martial arts have continued their studies over many years and have shown exemplary resilience through their continued loyalty to their chosen art and their teachers and students.

There were many different criteria considered in these awards and all future recipients will be subject to the same reasoning. These awards are presented to both members and non members of WEBBS and from all martial art styles/ systems.

2020 was the 20th anniversary of the World Elite Black Belt Society – WEBBS and I decided to start this prestigious roll of Honour with some 20 different martial artists from many countries around the world, there will obviously be further additions to this unique list in the future.
