Can Wrestling Schools Utilize Obstacle Race Training?

By Rob Sutter


Wrestlers have to train in order to get better and I can't help but feel like that's become much more gratifying as a viewer than actually watching the main shows. World Wrestling Entertainment, for example, has NXT as its smaller promotion where up-and-comers work. They are able to train, all the while gain experience in front of a smaller audience which can prep them for when they finally do reach the main shows. When it comes to working out, though, I feel as though obstacle race training can help greatly on the matter.

Triple H had developed NXT into a training facility and I think that his own accents are visibly shown compared to RAW or SmackDown. NXT feels far more old school in terms of its approach, since storylines are given better build. They have more time to flesh such aspects out since they aren't apt to advertise shows, brands, or anything of that nature. Wrestlers also have ample time to work in the ring so that they can learn to handle themselves when the spotlight is on them.

There have been cases of wrestlers coming up too early and, as a result, missing out on the developmental experience they could have had. Daniel Bryan is easily one of the best technical wrestlers of the last ten years but even he had to train. WWE's style is very different from others, after all. Sin Cara is a bad example, seeing as how he didn't go through prior training and his high-flying, fast-paced style just didn't gel with the vast majority of people on the roster.

While this is all fine, what kind of role would obstacle race training play on the matter? I think that it would do wonders for stars that are more agile than powerful and there are a few which fit the bill if you're able to catch NXT. Adrian Neville is considered "The Man That Gravity Forgot" and you can see that through his array of high-flying maneuvers. This is just one example of someone who could prove themselves in events the likes of Spartan Race.

NXT is brimming with stars and I think that it's just a matter of time before many of them are able to work with others on the main shows we see every Monday and Friday evening. Neville is just one name to consider, though, as you have others like Bray Wyatt, Kassius Ohno and Paige to name just a few. I think that wrestling has a stellar future and it will be carried out by the stars that are able to make it to the main roster. Obstacle race training may just be one step in the process.
