Does everybody here want to be a technical wrestler? In this country you gotta get the workrate first. Then when you got the workrate, then you get the power. Then when you get the power, you get the women. But there is a big difference between having a solid wrestling background and being a technical wrestler. Unless you are 6'4" and 250 lbs, you have to have either technical chops or acrobatic ability. You don't have to be a methodical worker like Greg Valentine. But you do need to know what the hell you're doing. And learning from the most technically sound and knowledgeable people will provide a better background than going in with the mindset that you want to be the next Goldberg. Get the knowledge and ability. Then figure out what you need to use from that large body of knowledge. It is better to know how to do a stepover toe hold or spinning toe hold but never use it, than to lack the knowledge when you need it down the road. Most people lack the size or the attitude of a Rock or Goldberg or Hogan that allowed them to get where they got. But taking the Austin or Flair route is more valuable when you're stuck on the bottom fighting for a spot.

Raven to teach me the basics and the psychology, Scott Norton to teach me how to stand my ground and stay tough in a business full of liars and assholes, Kevin Nash to teach me about politics and how to make money in the business, and Kimberly Page to teach me how to lick _____ for any female wrestling promoters or women in power that may help me land a lucrative job or give me a bigger push...like Duece Bigelow baby!
