In Storm's camp you'll be pretty much ready to go in 12 weeks. Plus, he actually teaches EVERY class himself. It's been called the best school by some of the best. He even had a few people in NXT, and when Storm was training people in OVW, he taught Dolph Ziggler, Mr. Kennedy, Damien Sandow, Bobby Lashley, and every else in developmental at the time. -- His best students have been ready in 12 weeks, that doesn't guarantee everyone will be ready in 12 weeks. People train at their own experience level. Some people are naturals and some take time to "get it". Aside from Mr. Severn, my other trainer was Josh Raymond (WSX, ROH), whom spent his first 6 months doing nothing but back bumps before he was ever taught his first move - sometimes it's better to cut your teeth for awhile before you get ahead of yourself. Not discrediting Lance Storm's academy, I've personally have always wanted to visit it. But shelling out that kind of money where nothing is guaranteed - it's ultimately your call. Before I discovered Severn's camp, I had my "hart" set on the Hart Bros. camp, where they were still training guys in the Dungeon, until I found out they wanted close to $3,000 as well - I opted to look elsewhere. It kind of seems like you're at where I once was, but all I can do is offer you advice. True Lance has connections to the E, but if you're truely good enough, you'll get noticed working outside of the connections. It's alright man, I know your just trying to be helpful. While true that the cream always rises to the top, it will get there even quicker if it's even higher up to start. I just have to be confident that in those 12 weeks, I'd be ready, and with Storm, I would be confident. Plus, no matter how much you train you are never really ready until you truly get in a match in front of a crowd. (I believe I hear a wrestler say that once, but I forgot who. |

i hope to go to school within the next couple years and wasn't some guy here on raw and got whooped by ryback? Ricky Starks his name was,he had an old account but made a new account and only has one post now Was that legit? I saw the post and wondered. Getting smacked with tuna fish isn't that glamorous, but I'm sure it's pretty cool to be on Raw. |

I wrestled for a local indy promotion out of Lafayette, TN for a while. I really enjoyed it. It was never going to be a full time job, just fun.

I train at RWA, the Runcorn Wrestling Academy, which is quite close to Bassix, you should give it a visit, and it's quite cheap. (:

I once got double suplexed on to a pillow. That counts right?
But being the wrestling nerd that I am, I can honestly say I would never want to be a wrestler. I'd love to come out to a badass entrance music to a crowd of adoring fans but that's only if you make it. Even then, you're on the road 24/7, with constant nagging pains and aches, working in an industry that is filled with messy politics and run by crazies.
That's not to knock wrestlers, or anyone who wants to be a wrestler. If anything it just gives me more respect to people who feel this is their passion. But me? I'd rather be the next Matt Striker (sans firing) than the next HBK.

I'd be happy to just be wrestling once or twice a week. I wouldn't care about my place on the card or if I am a jobber or not. I honesty want to just be part of it. If I ever get off my lazy ass and start getting into shape I will pursue it. Probably is I am two months shy of 25 so I don't know what I'll be able to do.

Should of got Taker to tape his fists and scare him haha ! The sad part is, he demanded a rematch soon after, and we had to do it on the fly since it was so sudden. He lost again and went on a massive rampage, effectively killing the KWWE. We closed our doors the very next day. |

His name was Justin, a 10/11-year-old kid who resembled Rico Rodriguez. He went ballistic after he lost because I think the kid who beat him (Chris) rolled him up or used some sort of heel move to win. He chased Chris around the schoolyard, our teacher saw him crying and blubbering, and told us we had to shut down the KWWE. At the time, I wasn't very insider-savvy but I would definitely classify that as shoot raging. To this day, I still regret ever signing him to a contract.  It was as bad as the time Daniel Bryan ate Triple H's cookies and was put in a 3-on-1 Gauntlet Match against The Shield. |

Well, actually, we didn't touch each other. Not too much at the time because we all believed wrestlers don't take real bumps and not seriously get hurt. We just knew we would get in trouble, so we did it while adults wouldn't be the wiser. We were idiots because a PPV would last the entire school week. HAHAHAHAHA!!!! |
