Hey guys, who has wrestled for real here ? Or would like to go to a place like OVW and train? I ask because me and keson were talking about this earlier today. I thought it could be a fun topic. What would you like to do in the wrestling business? I always wanted to work behind the scenes. I never saw myself in the ring per say.

:eek:hyeah

Maybe as a backstage personality or a commentator, but not as an actual wrestler.

I've always Dreamed of being Tag Team Champion of the World with my Brother but his knee is F'd up so that's a no go.... I would love to wrestle or be a Manager.

I wrestled in Middle School and was undefeated, but I don't like wearing Spandex... (Black Person from tha hood "Yo") so I never tried in High School, Heck I once broke a kids ankle doing backyard Wrestling , I used the Ankle lock, unfortunately that was my last match even though I won the Belt... They kicked me out for taking it too seriously... "hey" he should' have tapped out.

I've always wanted to be a wrestler, i even wanted to do amature wrestling, but was never allowed for "fear of me getting a staph infection from a dirty mat". Not too sure if i have the size either, being 17, 6'0 and a buck 40, i'd have to put on some serious muscle. Its funny, my best friend growing up is curently in jounalism school, in the hopes of being a professional commentator

I briefly worked for NWA Wildside... LOVED IT i moved 350 miles to do it to a place called Ashford in Kent, England.. Won a lot of competitions and almost got on TV... Until i nearly broke my back in a training accident .. My injury stops me fighting anymore :( i do training still and tutorials for kids but thats about it, i love the sport and modding is about as close as i can get to it these days lol ....

I would encourage anyone to try it, even if it was just a passing thought YOU STILL THOUGHT ABOUT DOING IT ;)

A dream. I can only say this. Here in Italy there are several wrestling federation. Some of them are twinned with the greatest European wrestling federation.

See this is cool we all have dreams. the closest I every got was amateur judo I took up for a little over a yr. I figured I could learn to bump that way. You learn how to take all kinds of falls. I'm a musician at heart so that consumed me more. I always wanted to work with or have "jim johnston's" job. Every time I here bad WWE entrance music I think I could do better..lol..

I had dreams of wrestling a long time ago until I realized my height is a problem and I don't lift.

I'm still trying to get more strength, but I don't think I have the body or mindset for wrestling. I'd probably be good for a manager or a comedic relief, my heel mic skills are top notch.

I quit my band and am selling all my crap to pay my tuition fees for OVW.

We'll see how bad I complain. :p

I did for a while. I busted my ass at practice 4 times a week, worked out in the morning, and worked graveyard shift at a grocery store, and worked as a mover with one of the owners of the promotion. I wrestled some house shows and refereed some matches. The mat was stiff as f^%k. Drugs were definitely medicinal, as you had to keep working (at your day job) to pay to live!
I am happy I got to do it for a while.

I watched wrestling for as long as I can remember, but I never wanted to be a wrestler. I went to a Smash Wrestling house show in August (at this point I'd already been recognized as "Smash family", helping set up the ring, doing music for them, etc.) and the booker tried to run the ropes and messed up, and we all laughed at him. They asked me if I ever ran the ropes, and gave me the lesson on how to. I started, gained speed, and before I knew it I was sprinting across the ring hitting the ropes full on, to the point that the producer yelled "You're a natural!" and ever since then I've been itching to do it. There's even a local guy who debuted for them that month, and seeing his progression over the past little bit inspired me heavily. I had a really great talk with him at a recent show and I'm craving wrestling so much that I can't even backyard wrestle anymore because it leaves too much to be desired.

It's a positive influence, because I've really been trying to get into shape before I find a good wrestling school. I'm 17 and already 6'0 and have a good build. I just went from 210lbs to 180lbs on DDP Yoga and I'm getting back into weight training soon. I have my entire gimmick planned, and my promo chops are pretty amazing due to me being a hip hop artist for 5 years and learning to freestyle and stuff. I'm a big fan of all styles of wrestling and I understand concepts of storytelling and maneuvers that I think might give me a bit of an upper hand going into training.

I did some backyard shit in my early 20s with a few friends in his huge garden. We made up a crappy ring with 4 layers of mattresses and 4 poles rammed into the ground with shitty ropes made up of thick string. We did hardcore wrestling so barbed wire chairs, ladders with barbed wire rapped around and tables. We has other weapons that were added to the mix. We knew our basic moves like a suplex, DDT etc but weren't very good. I love wrestling but at my age and back issues a career in it would be extremely difficult. Perhaps I could be a manager or the evil owner of a promotion.

Cenz and Tom are 13 years old (It is almost impossible to talk in 3rd person while sharing an account) and we love wrestling and are building a backyard ring right now. We were going to start lessons but our dad thinks we need to focus on just our soccer and not both so we can't at the moment. We know our moves because every year we would get a jumping castle for christmas eve parties with family and would suplex and do all the moves. Cenz is thinking of becoming a super heavyweight because he can crush anyone with a camel clutch (or accolade) and tom wants to be a cruiserweight and we would make a tag team as twins of a powerhouse and a high flyer. Tom has a very powerful headlock though. And he has always wanted to be a heel

i've always wanted to give wrestling ago i first found out we had a school near penrith when i was sixteen, but there was a age requirement you had to be 18 so i forgot all about it and last year had a look at the site and i find out that the age requirement had been changed to sixteen and i thought to my self why couldn't that have been the age requirement when i was sixteen, when i was in okay shape and was fit lol but yeah i've though about going to a school a fair few times i even went as far as saying on facebook last year that in 2015 i was going to go join the AWF wrestling school, so maybe this year i will realize my dream and give it ago i've got to put in alot of work to get there and drop 30kg and get fit again but i'm hopeful i can do it lol, also i've always dreamed of running a successful wrestling promotion here in Australia, as i feel it is a untapped market waiting to be tapped
