Unique Training/Tryout Opportunity With Jim Ross And Jerry Brisco

Posted: Apr 11th 2011 By: CMBurnham

This is to inform you about a unique training/tryout opportunity taking place on Friday, July 22nd at the Five Sullivan Brothers Convention Center (Oklafan Editor's Note: The Five Sullivan Brothers Convention Center is in Waterloo, Iowa). This year, longtime talent scout for the WWE, JERRY BRISCO will be on hand to evaluate talent. He will be there as in an official capacity as a WWE employee. Also on hand to evaluate talent and give pointers will be JIM ROSS. This tryout is for experienced professional wrestlers only. It will have the following format.

At 3PM on Friday July 22nd, there will be a live show for a few VIP fans and other invited guests associated with the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame. This ?show? will be the training session. You will have a match in full gear in front of a crowd and will be watched by Jerry Brisco and Jim Ross. AFTER the show, Jim Ross and Jerry Brisco will give individual evaluations on what you did well and what you need to work on.

In addition certain regional promoters have been invited to watch as well giving you hard-to-come-by exposure to promoters you would like to wrestle for.

The cost of the tryout/training match is $125.00. If you have someone you would like to wrestle in particular, you can sign up together. Otherwise an opponent will be chosen for you. Due to the nature of the session, and the tight time schedule of the events for the day, spots are limited to 18. As of April, 10th 2011, only 10 spots are still available. Payment is due by July 15th.

For those of you with no wrestling experience there will be a training session starting at 12:30 PM July 22nd. This will cover basic wrestling moves and be more of a fantasy-type camp. The cost of this session is $50 and includes a ticket to watch the afternoon training session show and also the evening Impact Pro Wrestling show featuring Jim Ross, Jerry Brisco, Baron Von Raschke, Terry Funk, and HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN TO WRESTLE! Many more legends of the sport will be on hand as well.

To join either training session, please contact Troy Peterson at wresshow@yahoo.com. If you are signing up for the advanced camp and we are unfamiliar with your wrestling experience, we may ask for additional information before allowing you to sign up. Thank you and whether or not you plan on training, you should take the weekend of July 22nd and join a great wrestling weekend. It is a wonderful chance to network and just have a good time.
