Do you ever get this question from family and friends? "You like wrestling so much, why don't you get a job in wrestling?" I get this all the time and all I say is, "you can't just be a fan and land a job in wrestling". Do any of you get this and if so what do you say?

I used to get that alot back when I was younger because I used to be/still am a genius when it comes to any arena in the united states. My dad always used to name off a city and I would tell him the major arena located in that city. Also can look at a picture and tell you what arena it is.

I find it funny that you'd have to ask her permission to attend wrestling training. |

The fact that you had to ASK her for her approval, and then she left you for pursuing something you love, says that she never really cared about you in the first place. |

I can honestly say that I have never heard that from anyone in my entire life. In fact, most everyone I've ever known has told me not to try to get a job doing anything in the wrestling business.

My family says it, but I say it's not as easy as it looks.
TBH, I would enjoy a job as a wrestler, but it would be to much killer work, with a small chance of making it.
Yes, my drive to succeed is small.

I never get that question. It's usually more along the lines of, "how can you watch that crap?" or, "you know it's fake, right?"

Not really. I remember my one friend, He said one day when I'm older I should do SOMETHING WWE related since I love the business so much. He said I'd make a good commentator. Honestly I'd love nothing more then to be a professional wrestler. Wheter it be the WWE or working little gigs I'd love it. The WWE would be amazing to be in one day. I know chances of making it to there are slim, But I can dream.

I get it all the time from my sister...worse since i got the offer from the company in Miami when I was at a WWE house show. I really boils down to this...I don't feel like getting thrown off a ladder or hit with a chair.
If the business was more like it was in the 80's...I would probably go for it.

Why would you not feel like getting thrown of a ladder or hit with a chair? That sounds like so much fun. Ok, maybe not. I figure I can make decent money and retire with some cash and my health without getting into the wrestling business. You get into wrestling you can make good money, retire with cash, but possibly not your health. |

Well they don't ask me to be a wrestler, but do something in relations to wrestling. I tell them that no company will hire you for just being a fan.

When you think about it, Commentary is probably the only real on-screen job anyone here could do.
And there are only 6 men that are getting to do that properly in WWE. Thats very few people.

I've never heard that from anyone. It's usually "You like watching oiled up half naked men roll around and grope each other", or "Why do you watch that crap, you know it's fake right!?"
