I kinda want to do commentary or maybe be a manager. But I've got knee and shoulder problems so actually being a wrestler would be out of the question for me. I'd like to though.  |

Hard to say, the only reason i wouldn't is travel, I would like to because im a wrestling fan and would be thrilling and exciting. Also if I was in really muscular shape I could probably get a WWE contract since im 6'6'

Whats so wrong with traveling?? That would be a plus for me On the road 4 days a week the way the WWE guys are? Sometimes more than that. You're gone on weekends and holidays every single year. It would definitely wear on you after a while. Plus, if you don't have the right look you're screwed from the beginning. On top of that, your body just isn't designed to take that kind of a beating night in and night out. On top of that not a whole lot of people actually make a good living wrestling. I probably out earn a lot of wrestlers out there and I don't take the beating on my body and I'm home all the time. |

I wanted to all my life till about a year or two ago. I just lost that passion to be in the business. There isnt a promotion out there that I really have interest in. Course I love WWE but we all know its just not the same.
I'd love to be a writer though for any promotion. I love to write and have been told that I am a very good one when I want to be.
But nah, wrestling is out the window now. Which is kinda sad to loose interest in something you dreamed about all your life isnt it? I guess it wasnt too much of a dream then more so a imagination.

I remember Jericho saying that if you don't invest in a good school, then you're robbing yourself, so pick one like CTC (Chaotic Training Center) here in Boston, where Triple H and Cena graduated from, or train at Booker's school or The Dudley's school which is just opening up, I think.
But no, I don't.

I actually am thinking of trying. If not WWE, then TNA. Somewhere I would get paid. I backyard wrestle now, getting used to taking bumps, and how to move around. So its a possibilty I might look into

I have considered it and would love to, though there isnt much Wrestling Schools near by, but I might still try.

When I was younger I really did want to be a wrestler. I was also a 4th degree black belt in tae wkan do and aikido so I had a good amount of training as far as learning to fall and submission holds even though the holds were a little closer to UFC than they were to wrestling submissions.
As time went on I realized that, to be honest, I problably wouldn't like living in pain all the time and sacrifices to be a wrestler. I still think I could potentially ba good wrestler because I think I have a good mind for in-ring psychology and how to put a match together and I was always very athletic with the martial arts, but I still don't think I would enjoy being in that much pain and all the drugs and all the stuff involved.
This is largely why i give so much credit and am so much a fan of wrestling because what these guys do is so unbelievable and the punishment and injuries they work with make them borderline superhuman.
