The Wrestling Figure Thread

[Saint553]

Dude, here's some little known facts about wrestlers:

1. Height and weight are ALWAYS exagerated on bigger guys. I talked to a wrestler who did some recruiting for a school in central illinois and he said they'd probably list me at 6'5 or 6'6, 235-250. I'm only about 6'1, 220.

2. Taller wrestlers will usually wear lifts. Kane does (he's shorter than Taker). But wrestlers always appear bigger on TV. I'm actually taller than RVD. I was surprised when I met him.

I know that but I wouldn't think he'd use lifts. He was already tall.

How tall is RVD anyway??

 

[Saint553]

Dunno. But I remember being surprised that he looks a lot smaller in person. I think HHH even uses lifts.

I'd be a cruiserweight at best. I'm 5'9" 1/2 without shoes.

Well, don't bulk up. I think I lost some potential height because of weight training. It's just a theory, but I just think so.

Too late. I'm tubby.

My dad, who I hadn't seen for several weeks, noticed I bulked up a bit. Trying to get into better shape for...whatever. Maybe my trip to florida, or my job for the summer.

Good for you. Get your swole on brah.

 

[Saint553]

Well, it's taken me over a year to get back to 220 from 235. Now I want to go back up to 235 in muscle mass.

Thats damn good brah. You never try out any wrasslin' school??

I have considered it. I talked to two of them. But I emailed Lance Storm at his website and asked him a few questions about training. Due to my back problems (fractured vertebrae), he said it was too potentially dangerous and probably not a good idea. I trust his opinion and advice quite a bit, so I unfortunately listened. I'm in much better shape than most of the people I see in wrestling schools.

If the chance ever comes up, I may see if a school would ever traing me to have just one match.

You fractured some vertebrae before?? Damn, how'd you manage that?? A car wreck??

My doc didn't know if it was from stress or from the car accident I was in. I think it was from a tumbling accident I had. I did a front flip off a mini-trampoline up onto a mat and over rotated, so I landed flat on my chest/chin and my back bent in such away that my feet were over my head, so I made kind of a C shape but not in a way a person is supposed to comfortably bend. My back immediately spasmed, started to burn really badly to the point I couldn't breath, and I didn't get up for an hour. My friend wanted to call an ambulance because it was so bad, but I told her not to. I ended up getting up and walking out. Damn it was bad. The next day was worse.

But it could have happened from any other number of things I've done.

Um...I guess? But it was pretty bad. In terms of the worst pain I've ever felt, it was probably second. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being unbearable please knock me out pain, it was like a 9.5.

 

[Saint553]

Ok, well, I'm off to bed. Getting tired. Hasta dude.
