So I've decided to finally go ahead and go to wrestling school.
APW Boot Camp in Hayward. I sent for the pamphlet and all already. I've already started working out and preparing. I've done some research and APW Boot Camp seems to be pretty well repected. Anyone have an opinion on said Boot Camp?

Well I'm in Australia so I can't really comment, but good luck, and I hope you make it to the big time making millions of dollars, eventually.
Everyone's gotta start somewhere. |

Sorry, I can't say I know of any wrestling schools up there myself. I'll ask some people and let you know if I hear anything positive.

Here's some advice before you start.
Walk before you can run I've seen too many people get in the ring for the first time and think they are the muts nuts because they can do a moonsault. Learn the basics first, it's boring as hell, but it will help you in the future. Shut up and Listen. I've seen too many kids walk into training talking about how they already know how to work because they've done it with there brother etc. At the end of the day if the trainers don't like you they won't respect you or give you a chance, be humble and take in all the advise given to you, they are trainers for a reason. Don't expect to wrestle in a proprt match within the next year it's a slow process, but it's worth it. If you can do those 3 things you should be fine |

When McMahon signs you up to work for WWE, blackmail Triple H into believing you have evidence of him cheating on Steph and then work your way into her bed so you can have all the power.

A friend of mine was joking around and trying to get me to go for referee or manager camp which they also offer under the assumption that there's no way a 6' 3" referee or manager can get into the business without eventually becoming a wrestler. lol. I'll go ahead and splurge and spend the extra $2,000 to get started on wrestling. APW really seems to be really helpful with every aspect. Even post-training. I'm excited to get started. |

Can't say as though I am knowledgable about APW, per-chance is there a website, or even information about who the head trainer is?

If it's the same APW I am thinking of, it must be All Pro Wrestling. He'd said that it is near Hayward, which I am assuming he means CA - so it should be the same group.
They are a pretty reliable and respectable school, although they have had their share of problems and such, and Roland has come under some fire before. Nonetheless, they should be good to start with. |

I've thought about going to one, but:
A) I'm still only 19, and want to get out of college first B) There's no way in hell I can afford it C) My only mode of transportation is a rusted-out Oldsmobile that's older than I am D) I'm out of shape and a gigantic wuss Anyways, good luck with your lessons. With any luck, once I get my degree in Broadcasting, I'll be able to call your matches. |

There are many great schools here in the US that aren't that expensive - all depends on whereabouts in the country that you are, and a few other things. Generally, you can expect to at least dish out $1,500 - plus gas to travel to and from the school. Then of course you'll need the proper gear, and if you do pass the school you'll then need tights and boots and all of that. It's like anything else basically, initially it'll cost you to get in - but if you love it, it'll be worth it. |

Doesn't look like it's been updated in a while but you get the idea. It's just a bit over an hour from where I live so I'm not too worried about gas or anything. |
