    Everything you need to know about Brock Lesnar vs A Train (John Cena DQ?!) Smackdown 2003

    This match is a MUST WATCH for our big men out there. This allows big men to keep their size AND the ability to sell for someone. Many won't think of A Train as a great seller like a Ricky Steamboat, but the man is a MASTER here. Watch how Lesnar AND A Train sell during the heat. Lesnar is selling for sympathy, but A Train is selling to register more along in a realistic way. Which is typically not how heels sell, but A Train is a big man so it works! Such a great match that is well worth the hour of studying AND as a special surprise, I am including a word document/ deck to be able to study along. Or download and study on your own time! We go through the Seven Deadly Sins of pro wrestling, we explain the psychology of how the shone sets up the match and how the Cut off impacts the entire match. This video has taken several hours of editing, typing and video-finding. It has been a great match to study, but I am hoping this is a process we can continue with to become better students of the game!

And what better way to show off their talents than the last time they win the tag team titles? Chavo Guerrero and Eddie Guerrero are one of the main reasons Smackdown was MUST WATCH during the mid 2000's. As a part of the Smackdown 6, they were having main event quality matches every week.

However, Cena's raw power cannot be ignored as he relentlessly pushes forward to dominate the ring.

    Everything GREAT About Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 31

    I have worked on this video for over 50 hours: studying, creating thumbnails, and countless revisions to avoid WWE copyright strikes on YouTube. Unfortunately, I can only spend so much more time on a project that has taken up this much of my time. As of right now, I still WANT to finish this video to continue and grow my Youtube channel, but I want it to be appreciated in the way it was intended. Thank you 💜

    You don't remember this WWE Ladder match... but you should (RVD vs Jeff Hardy Ladder Match)

    Emotions make us remember moments in our lives. The reason you don't remember this ladder match between Jeff Hardy and RVD is because it wasn't about EMOTIONS. It's a battle of one upmanship between two babyface (good guy) champions.   So, how can you have a GOOD babyface ladder match? Well, let's just do spots!    Sometimes a match doesn't have to follow a typical pro wrestling psychology structure. Sometimes you can tell a story where the fans want to just WATCH and be entertained.   This match style can kind of suck though, honestly. You have to almost work twice as hard and take bigger bumps to get the same reaction you'd get if you had ANY heel in the match. But you're booked, so how do you have your first ladder match?   As a beginner pro wrestler, PLEASE study with your focus on:  ◾How can I tell a story WITHOUT any heel tactics? No eye pokes, no hair pulling, no low blows.  ◾If I'm in a ladder match, what are 3 moves I can do to ANYONE? (Hint at 5:45 )  ◾Ask yourself: am I able to do this SAFELY? If the answer is no, DON'T DO IT 😊  Here is your FREE Pro Wrestling breakdown sheet for beginners:  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z97_Y_k-FMcCJymR0YFUFcYDcJPu9SdORPEOFeYETw8/edit?usp=sharing Back before WWE/ WWF, we had several territories to learn and make mistakes. Now we have indy's where talent travels weekly across the country. Which is awesome!

    Stone Cold Wrestled The Undertaker BEFORE they were famous (was it good?)

    Debuting as Texas Red, The Undertaker vs Bruiser Brody promises NOTHING in its 3 minute total. BUT in 3 minutes, we can learn countless concepts: selling, calling spots, and squash matches. As a beginner pro wrestler, PLEASE study with your focus on: ◾How can I "get over", DESPITE being booked in a match with little to no offense?  ◾If I'm in an unsafe environment, who do I know that hs my back that I can talk to? And especially:  ◾Are Kane and Undertaker brothers in real life? JKJK If you were booked to be in a squash match, what would be your 3 to 5 moves that you would do?   Here is your FREE Pro Wrestling breakdown sheet for beginners: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z97_Y_k-FMcCJymR0YFUFcYDcJPu9SdORPEOFeYETw8/edit?usp=sharing  Pro wrestling training as a beginner doesn't have to just be in the ring... in fact, it's often where I learned the most! Sometimes your matches don't turn out the way you expect, it happens to pros too.  Back before WWE/ WWF, we had several territories to learn and make mistakes.

  8. Kurt Angle Was a GOAT in 2006 - Ring Psychology 101 (Match Analysis)

    06/22/2022

    Kurt Angle Was a GOAT in 2006 - Ring Psychology 101 (Match Analysis)

    Complete Match Analysis for Beginner Pro Wrestlers - Randy Orton vs Kurt Angle  Match begins: 04:00  Match Shine: 5:00 Cut off: 5:35 Heat:   Hope Spots:  7:05& 9:30 Double down: 12:02 Comeback: 12:50 Interrupt comeback into false finish: 13:20 Finish: 17:25   As a beginner pro wrestler, PLEASE study with your focus on:  ◾How many attempts did Kurt Angle do for his Ankle Lock? If you have an ESTABLISHED finisher, you can tease it in the match and create DRAMA.  ◾Kurt Angle cut himself off as the "cut-off", how many ways can you think of to "stop" yourself as a babyface? This is a good way to begin to work with less experienced people, or working on the fly. You put these "spots"/ moments away for a rainy day.   ◾Comeback's don't have to all LOOK the same. It's better if they don't. But how can you make yours stand out compared to everyone else? I started doing moves I can: A). Do to everyone. B). Not everyone does in a single match. HINT try to not use one clothesline, back elbow, or sling blade and your match will stand out!   Here is your FREE Pro Wrestling breakdown sheet for beginners:   https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z97_Y_k-FMcCJymR0YFUFcYDcJPu9SdORPEOFeYETw8/edit? usp=sharing Pro wrestling training doesn't have to just be in the ring... in fact, it's often where I learned the most!
