I'm having alot of doubts the past few days. Not about actually pursuing becoming a wrestler but about the school itself. Everything I've read says it's a great, dependable school. But I can't get the thought out of my head that it's biggest claim to fame after all the years it's existed is Spike Dudley.

I mean, I'd love to go on to be as talented as a Bryan Danielson but my main goal is to actually make it in WWE. But all I keep thinking is why has no APW graduate gone on to make it in WWE with the exception of Spike and Crash Holly. Why should I think that I would break out of the pack and go on to be huge? I've got all the dedication in the world and I don't plan on ever again doing anything but wrestling but I'm sure there have been dedicated guys who has gone here before. What happened to them?

Anyways, I got somewhat famous on TPWW years ago because of my knowledge of wrestling, and therefore hate asking for wrestling related advice and such but what does everyone else think about this situation?

Look buddy,

I think you are going about this in all the wrong way. Forget about the WWE for now, you need to learn how to wrestle and then wrestle on lots of shows and get your name out there. It would 2-5 years minimum. If you really love wrestling, just wrestle for the enjoyment of wrestling. I treat wrestling like some would treat being in a sunday league football team, everyone there knows there not premiership standard, but they still play it every week because they love the game, if they are really good a scout could pick them up and they could go on futher, but it's unlikely.

I'm not trying to put you down here as I have no idea on what your talent capabilities are, but think how many wrestlers there are in the US alone, there are thousands still active right now and currently 1 federation for feeding the WWE, that's rubbish odds of making it.

If you love wrestling, do the training learn the basic, I know there boring as hell and all you want to do is the moves that you know you can do, but crawl before you can walk and when your ready you can go out there and get bookings yourself.
