Tag Team Wrestling vs Singles
I feel like singles competition would be to put a match together because in tag team seems like you have so many other components that you have to see? So take last night on Raw The Judgement Day vs Brie & Paige, you had so many different part that you have to put together. So put that match together would be difficult. Which brings me to another question, do you have producers on the Indies to help put the match together?

I have been toying with telling my wrestlers to make a story out of themselves because sometimes all I see is them doing a match and it doesn’t have to make sense.

Why Some Wrestlers Get Booked Over Better Talent
If you’ve been in pro wrestling long enough, you’ve probably seen it happen. A wrestler who may not be the most athletic. Not the flashiest. Not the most naturally gifted. Yet they keep getting booked over “better” talent. Why? Because promoters are not just booking moves. They’re booking reliability. They’re booking professionalism. They’re booking people who make their lives easier. In this video I break down: • Why communication matters in wrestling • Why being easy to work with matters • Why professionalism beats ego • Why reliability gets repeat bookings • Why drama can quietly kill opportunities A lot of wrestlers believe talent alone should carry them. But talent is only part of the equation. Professional wrestling is a business. And promoters remember the people who help the show run smoothly. Talent gets you booked once. Professionalism gets you booked again. https://youtu.be/QGHGQJiiPAU

Especially being a media company based operation, I look for wrestlers who can tell a story and do decent promos. I’m not booking the Ultimate Warrior in every slot, but they need to know how to promote themselves so they can get a draw without me having to do all of the work.
No Off Season
Every year around this time, you start to see the same pattern in independent wrestling. Late Spring into early Summer. Some promotions start slowing down. Some “tax return season” companies run out of money. Some towns get harder to draw in because families are traveling, kids are out of school, and schedules change. And suddenly… A lot of talent starts saying: “Bookings seem slow right now.” But here’s the reality: Pro wrestling does not have an off season. The people who stay consistently booked usually are not the people waiting for opportunities to magically appear. They are the people: • following up with promoters • sending updated match footage • improving their presentation • posting consistently on social media • networking at shows • staying professional • staying visible • staying useful This industry rewards momentum. If you disappear for 2 or 3 months, the business keeps moving without you. That’s why this time of year matters so much. Summer can either become: • the season you lost momentum OR • the season you separated yourself from everyone else who got complacent. Question for the group: What are YOU doing right now to make sure bookings continue through the Summer months? Are you changing your outreach? Updating gear or promos? Posting more content? Traveling more? Learning new skills? Building relationships? Drop your strategies, plans, or goals below. Somebody else in this group may learn something from your answer. Because talent gets you booked once. Professionalism keeps you booked. Poll Question: “What are you focusing on MOST this Summer to stay booked?”

The main thing I have been working on is getting a job to help fund my projects. I had one for a week but the company closed. Iowa WORKS is helping me out a lot.
