RE: Wrestling and Depression...The World's Worst Tag Team!

in #wrestling8 years ago

Your story sounds like a potentially interesting character. The characters in wrestling that have gotten truly over since the beginning of time have always been those that were the worker's true personality, with the volume cranked to 10.

As someone who knows a thing or two about wrestling, my advice would be focus on your character. Don't receive a myriad of concussions doing overly stupid stuff, but instead focus on your promos, look and character. In the end, it's the character that gets over, not the in ring work. There are exceptions to the rule, but they are few and far between.

A big mistake a lot of younger wrestlers do today is they think the ring work is the be all end all of of wrestling.

If you're a heel, focus on being a douchebag that hits the audience where it hurts; if you're a babyface, sell your ass off.

i like characters... over the top characters. But realistic ones are needed too! upvoted

100% agree dude!
I'm capable of being the "spot monkey" and doing the dives and all that. But my biggest pop came at a camp show after I reversed a wristlock.

I love the acrobatic and physical side of wrestling, but if it doesn't make sense then your just hurting yourself for no reason...And wheres the fun in that?

Bro my biggest pop always comes from a belly to back! I fly once in a match... taht's it
