Somewhere lost in a storage unit I have a tape with Paul when he was in Ocala. I went to that school a few years after him and apparently feel very similar about our time there.
I loved hearing these stories!! Sadly today's wrestling is a lot different and I see so many in the performance center that have no love for wrestling or very little and that sucks! We still get some amazing wrestlers occasionally like Bianca! Montez! I know I'm missing a few but they don't go through the things that so many like London had been through. The days of learning everything from tearing the ring down to living in their cars and so many other stories that made those wrestlers something truly special. Times are different! I always wanted to be a wrestler but it was never a option as I'm handicap with a brittle bone disease so my love for wrestling is what it's done for me by helping me through the hard times. Being stuck indoors and on bedrest was hard but I looked forward to wrestling and Mania 3 was in my hometown and I thought I was going but of course I broke my leg and was in the hospital for several weeks 😢 story of my life! I remember watching the local news for results. My uncle sent me the VHS 📼 weeks later and I watched it so much. Wrestling is still a big part of my life.
Kendrick and London were so great!! I love tag teams and I loved watching them together. Sadly I haven't seen much from London since leaving WWE. I think he was in lucha underground? Maybe TNA? Only a match or 2?
I remember that book ! It showed you how to break in as a referee , manager and other jobs in wrestling as well . And what a bummer about Skullcrushers . Being trained by Adrian would have been awesome ! I was trained by more like one of those generic names you referenced lol !
Dusty Wolfe ! Great worker ! Its funny that folks only think of some guys as "jobbers" or "enhancement" but really knew what they were doing in the ring . Reno Riggins , George South , Barry Horowitz , Bob Cook , shit I could go on and on . If you watch back all those squash matches , you can tell the difference between a Joe Shmoe and a Duane Gill or the like .

He’s had 3 matches in 2023 but yeah he very rarely wrestles anymore

Shawn being the name trainer there opened up doors for people due to his links with WWE.
You should try to interview droz
Dusty Wolfe ! Great worker ! Its funny that folks only think of some guys as "jobbers" or "enhancement" but really knew what they were doing in the ring .

I recorded recently with Dusty. That will be up soon
@@wrestlingthenandnow No way !! Thats awesome . Thanks !
Back in the day, getting into wrestling was similar to getting a job (sorry Corny) as a plumber. But yeah, that's the easiest comparison.
Will this interview be released in full?
we talked for about 2 and a half hours! lol do you want the entire interview?
You should most definitely always post the full interviews. That’s what ppl want more than clips. By far
Is this one of Jonah's pages? Either way good interview
