Each student will be required to sign a waiver stating The XWO Asylum and its affiliated companies assume no responsibility for injuries. All students are required to attend all XWO events as security personnel. The Basics The objective of your training at The XWO Asylum is to become fundamentally sound in all aspects of pro-wrestling. This includes knowing the basic rules of performing maneuvers, learning the correct way to take bumps, ring positioning, timing, how to build a match and how to pace it, and above all, protecting yourself and your opponent. Students start their training outside the ring, working on basic holds with a veteran student or instructor. Strength training and cardio-vascular conditioning are also emphasized. They then progress to taking unassisted bumps in the ring, entering/exiting the ring properly and learning the correct way to run the ropes. From there, they join the rest of the class performing drills to help refine the elements to a well executed wrestling match. These military-style drills have been designed to improve conditioning, reinforce principles of applying holds, and performing the most common maneuvers in short, quick bursts. The confidence built through drills carries over into matches, and teaches timing and ring positioning. With experience, students are able to build their matches and improvise sequences of moves on their feet. Normally, students begin working on their own matches after just two months of basic training. The camcorder is an essential learning tool at The XWO Asylum. A video camera is fixed on the ring and tapes every class. You can see your own progress and gain input from both instructors and other students on your strengths and weaknesses. Character Development No, we are not talking about your “wrestling persona”. A neglected aspect of the pro-wrestling business is solidly built into The XWO Asylum training program – your performance outside of the ring. High levels of discipline, respect, honor, and confidence (not ego) are essential in the wrestling business, and most schools do not care or bother to add “character building" elements into their training. Lessons learned later on, are often learned too late. At The XWO Asylum, you’ll learn ego cannot control what you do in the ring or how you think and approach this business. The performances you see on TV can only come about through teamwork and cooperation on camera, and behind the scenes. At its best, the violence portrayed in our business is executed through the harmony that exists in the ring and backstage. A word of advice: winning or losing doesn’t matter because pro-wrestlers work for one thing - the crowd’s reaction. Environment You'll find the training environment at The XWO Asylum to be tough and intense. Students tend to be both competitive and helpful, which maintains a high standard of learning. Some classes are more relaxed but no less serious, where we let students have more input, and improvise their own spots. Former students now signed with The XWO Wrestling Organization come to The XWO Asylum regularly to practice and work on matches. Our policy is “everyone works together”; which means new students get to learn alongside XWO veterans and receive their insight and knowledge about performing and other aspects of the business. No question goes unanswered, and there is always someone willing to help you with your training or show you something new.
