Niether. After doing backyard for 3 years and small time pro for 6 months i've noticed that they both equally suck. I'm not saying I want to make it to "the E" cause I could never make it being 5' 3", I just want to get to the point were I'm making money. And to Mr. Ohlson don't plan on getting paid unless you go to a nice school. I have met people who have been in the "biz" for 13 years and never seen a dime


I wouldn't say the Pros "suck". I will admit it has its down points and its not all of your friends in the backyard having fun. But! I would say it is a lot more rewarding then backyarding. Backyarding what? you make a match put it on youtube, put it on GBYWN, get some comments and thats it. But the Pros Doesnt matter if its 20 people or 200 people, being cheered and being booed is one of the most satisfying things in my opinion and to go home knowning that you made that little kid look up to you or hate you, is an awesome feeling. Also just calling yourself a Pro, and knowing you are one, is just all around so much better then being...a yarder.

and Nathan, Matt Sydal is 5'7, Rey Rey is 5'5. If you REALLY wanted to you could make it dude, plus your what 16? your gonna grow atleast an inch.

Small time pro? thats what people should focus on.

So BYW for me out of those two options, here is why:

BYW would honestly probably have just as many people watching the show as a small indy promotion.

BYW is more free, politics on what you can or cant do in a match are minimal to non.

The people are way cooler to hang with, its funner to hang with people with ambitions over some busted drugged up loser.

The crowd is WAY better, the crowd understands the moves more than what a small indy would draw so one person in a BYW crowd equals 100 in an indy promotion. Id much rather get 30 people going nuts chanting my name banging on teh ring apron when i did a cool spot then 100 people going "oh" followed by some dead clapping.


Ive wrestled both and big time BYW kills small time indy.

Don't get me wrong I love being a pro, I just don't like working with small crowds because then I feel like i'm right back in my backyard

i think we are all forgetting something. not everyone makes it.

id rather BYW, if only for the love of wrestling. In Pro, also, there are alot of limits.

sure pro may pay, and if theres and opportunity, take it.

however id just byw, and get a regular job
