    Simon, I am so proud of you. Your journey to becoming a professional wrestler is truly inspiring, and the personal message from Al Snow is great and I'm glad it's extra motivation. You show genuine passion in everything you share with the academy, while being realistic in not being able to predict the future, but I genuinely believe you will go the whole way. You have a glow about you every time you talk about it, there is no question that you love it so far. I sincerely look forward to your debut, wherever it may be. Whether it's WWE, TNA, WCPW, RoH, NJPW, Lucha Underground, wherever, I will fly from Alabama to wherever it may be to be sure to see your first match. Here's to your upcoming pro wrestler career.

    I started training early June and can relate to everything you're saying, don't know about you but wrestling is a lot more difficult than I first imagined. Little things such as bumps, ring awareness, strength, cardio etc is something that isn't thought about much but when you actually have to do it, the appreciation for the things that pro wrestlers do is a lot greater, as they make it look so easy. keep up the videos 👍👍

    @jkremis1423 8 років тому +1

    I'm not sure you'll read this, Simon, let alone take time to read this entire paragraph, but you doing these videos has been incredibly inspiring for me to watch. When I was a kid in early elementary school watching the Hardy Boyz, my friends and I used to emulate them on ladders, couches, and trampolines and say we wanted to be like them. It was horrible, and dangerous, and made some of the most amazing memories I have. When the original draft happened, I didn't understand it or why my favorite teams and best friends were getting split up. So much was changing for me at that age that I didn't want my favorite thing in the world (besides Pokemon maybe) to change too, so I abandoned it completely by late 2003/early 2004 (plus I legitimately thought John Cena ruined wrestling with his thuganomics gimmick, but looking back I realize that was the good part of his career).
    Long story short, I got out of the whole entire thing until late 2014, where I slowly eased back into learning the current stories and wrestlers involved. While watching the opening ladder match of WM31 (the first and only one I had seen in real time since and besides X8), a friend and I joked about how next year we were gonna be there which led to a whole "since we can't afford to watch, let's just wrestle in it" scenario. Well all of those childhood memories of diving off of ladders in my backyard or doing Swanton bombs and feeling my hair scrape against the trampoline came rushing back, and I really haven't stopped thinking about the "what if" of the whole thing since that night when Seth Rollins cashed in. I'm 24 now, and have been thinking about this for a year and a half, but one of your videos really hit me when you said something along the lines what you said in this video that had the same effect "if it doesn't work out, just check the box and move on."
    I'm legitimately considering moving from WI to... well that's my problem at this point. Now that I have decided I need to do this for the same reasons you said you were doing it, I can't pull the trigger on a school. The logistics are so much to handle while making sure I'll be able to have enough employment to fund my goals. But the point, anyways, is that you've truly inspired me, Simon, to make sure I don't let this remain a "what if..." scenario by the time I'm physically unable to do it. So thank you for that. Very much.

    Hey man, can I just say that your videos have given me more motivation to continue my training to be a pro wrestler. I injured my foot one month after my debut match here in New Zealand (Maniacs United), and its been really hard to start back at square one. But the way you talk about training really reminded me of myself when I started a year ago. Just wanted to say big thanks for helping me stay motivated and I hope that your training will pay off!!!

    I wish you nothing but the best of luck Simon. I completely relate to what you are saying. I tried out for a Wrestling Promotion over a year ago through a try out, and I decided that the pro wrestling gig was not for me. I had other priorities in life that out weighed that dream. But like you said, all I can do is cross it off the list and say that I tried. I hope that you continue to train and follow your dream, and who knows, you might even make it to the WWE.

    I had my first wrestling session last Sunday and it was amazing, I loved it! Learnt to take the first bumps, first basic holds and how to move around the ring. Obviously I was in pain the next day but still managed to go gym because as a professional wrestler or future pro wrestler you get no days off, have to be on top of your game so why not start now :D can't wait for my session tomorrow! I wish I would have them more often than once a week, but its beter than nothing still :D

I have a stomach issue where I can't take heavy shots to it.

    @alexandercns 8 років тому

    Glad to see the training is going well so far.
    Most important advice I can give at the moment, and this is to anyone who wants to be a professional wrestler, is to be mindful when doing holds/submissions. Most of them are just flashy and don't actually have any painful applicability in the real world, but some can lead to serious injury. A fellow performed a Single Legged Boston Crab on me and one slip up led to too much force going into pulling back and now one of my legs is basically just for show.
    My case is a strange one as the handful of doctors I've gone to can't figure out why my leg didn't heal, but it doesn't mean other mistakes won't lead to similar happenings. There's enough videos on WhatCulture detailing this kind of stuff to show that it isn't something you can just be care free with. You all gotta be careful with this stuff.

    I'm currently training to become a Pro Wrestler, and it's honestly a lot harder than what people first think. It's not 'play fighting'. Piecing together 5 minutes of mat-work (without communicating) today was really difficult, but in the end I got it, and it's little things like that that keep you motivated. If you're thinking of doing it, do it.

    You certainly have a leg up. Most of us, my age...... we knew of a "school". The one we all know of. The one that churned out barely trained athletes, who in turn owed said ahem "trainer" a lot of our personal gain for a number of years. Unlike our school which was a "Factory"...... you at least have a guy who made it, and who understands it, loves it, lives it, and respects it. This is huge in the types of wrestlers a "school", "trainer", or "factory" puts out. Good fortune on your journey. May it bring you firmly into the biz that only us freaks of the workplace can hang with.

    Hey Simon, what your doing is so inspirational. I have a quick question for you though, obviously your general message is to try it and give it a go but your muscular and, I assume, very fit. I am just an average guy with average fitness etc, would you say I should maybe train up a bit in the gym before I go to a wrestling academy (I live in Leeds so probably go to that one, El Ligero trains people there!) or would you say to just go for it and learn as things happen? I hope that makes some sort of sense!
