Hilarious.

All this just for fake fighting.

Is that Dale Torborg at 1:08 ?

@TerryKoss32 Yep.

I'm a worker in this business and what they say is true, I've only been working four years and this business is not for everyone. The bumps, bruises and everything that comes with this business I proudly wear as a badge of honor and I'm proud to be apart of the professional wrestling business.

Paying dues is the hardest part but everything pays off, just like in life.

@Juggalo972 I agree, very true indeed man, you have folks who try to take the easy way rather then the hard way or get into it for the wrong reasons which is a shame. I always feel better when i know i gave something that i enjoy doing 110% but thanks for sharing that.

[Juggalo972]

@CuttaCrosby29 Thank you brotha! Respect from North Texas!

[CuttaCrosby29]

@Juggalo972 Hey no problem Carlos, take care man!

@Juggalo972

sorry but thats crap, the more knocks you take and give out the more you should be considering that wrestling is NOT for you. otherwise you just end up with another goldberg, looks great fans love him gets loads of good fights.......... and in real life he is causing injuries and ending people careers because he is such an awful wrestler, he quit because of this but NOT until it was far too late and he had already put alot of people out the business. sorry but true.

[Juggalo972]

@airfaith You're wrong on one part in this business. In a match you're always taking care of one another and what he did to Bret Hart could've been avoided but in this business sometimes injuries happen and can't be helped.

Unless you're working with someone reckless then you don't work with them because that's how people's careers get shortened. Goldberg botched one move and ended Bret's career. But look at Droz too, it was accidental and it ended his too.

[Juggalo972]

@airfaith Plus, bumps and bruises are apart of this business. If you're not willing to take those bumps and bruises, pay your dues and learn the psychology then it's surely not for you. Wrestling isn't just body slams, punches and kicks and putting people through tables. The biggest portion of it is the psychology, where you make it make sense

[eugene680]

Here's my question. Can any of the graduates actually wrestle? The school focus so much on strength and stamina but less on wrestling technique.

[haroldcoxly94]

@eugene680 bret hart also said that after Bill Goldberg (a WCW Power Plant Graduate) ended his wrestling career (until recently)

[HimanshuDoi]

@eugene680 Yeah, that's what I always thought about the Power Plant. I mean yeah, you need to be strong and must be agile, but being very fit and knowing how to take bumps is not the be-all end-all of pro-wrestling. There's so much more involved, like holds, combos, selling, psychology, character development etc. I don't think the Power Plant taught any of that.

Sarge is doing well -- busy as usual. He was a very good friend and wrestling brother of my husband (Nightmare Ted Allen -- RIP - 1955/2010).
