William Regal Gives Advice to Aspiring Wrestlers

NXT color commentator William Regal took to his Twitter to offer some words of advice to those who wish to pursue a career in wrestling. Regal warns youngsters they must understand what is ahead.

“Firstly,know what you’re getting into. Pro Wrestling is a very physically demanding business.If you can’t stand pain,hard work or lots of traveling,DON’T WASTE YOURS OR EVERYBODY ELSE’S TIME!”

After advising them to enroll in a good school, he proceeds to explain that emulating is not a bad thing.

“- Make everything you do mean something or don’t bother doing it.

– Study the greats and the people who the great ones admire.Very important.
Some very wise words from Jim Ross(J.R)-‘If I were a young in ring talent in today’s world then DVD study of my predecessors would be a a regular part of my weekly routine just as is going to the gym and eating smartly. Some talents will spend more time ‘tanning,’ playing video games, etc than watching the work of stars of previous generations which is somewhat pathetic when one thinks about it’.”

He also discusses having “it” and how that can separate talent from others.

“Only one in a million has the Elvis factor(old reference but I can’t think of a better one).If you truly have that quality then you can get away with anything but the majority of us don’t so don’t take your skills for granted.I believe that that the more time you put into learning the details the better and longer your career will be.”
