>>10386619I think for a lot of modern wrestlers, mainly indie guys and indie guys that ended up AEW, is that they never thought of wrestling as career more of a hobby.
Not proud of this but I'm from the same part of the country as the bucks, and while I don't recall ever meeting them I was part of the same backyard wrestling circles they were in. There was no concept you were putting a match together, if you thought of a spot there was never consideration that it might not fit into the match, or that you didn't know how to set it up. Everyone had their own camcorder and we were going to flip and bash into each other until we had enough footage to show off to our friends at school. That mindset persists despite decades of real experience and being on TV. It's actually worse, cause it was a huge taboo to not catch people when they dived outside the ring.
