The Wrestling Agency Secrets to Breaking into the Pro Wrestling | Page 13

WANT TO BE COME A PRO WR ESTLER? You see them throwing each other and cursing their guts out on the ring after which they smile all the way to the bank. Surely, this must be the easiest career on the face of the earth, right? Wrong. Wrestling is one of the toughest jobs you can ever do. No wonder it is a reserve for the chosen few. The training, making a name for yourself, maintaining a high level of fitness, dealing with wresting agencies—it’s all just cumbersome. Good news? It is a highly lucrative career. Look at John Cena, for instance. This guy racks in $8.5 million annually by acting stupid on the ring. This is exclusive of his merchandise sales and event appearances which can go as high as $4 million. Obviously, not all wrestlers achieve such high levels of success but still, if you play your cards well, you can blow money like you never did before.
