The PWX Academy is
the place where a career in professional
wrestling can begin!
Officially sanctioned and operated by the NWA
and Pro Wrestling eXpress, the PWX Academy has
trained athletes who have appeared on cards for
the WWE, NWA-TNA, WCW, ECW, and the independent
circuit, including Europe and Asia! In fact,
many of the athletes on the NWA East roster and
on the Pittsburgh wrestling scene got their
start in the NWA East Academy!
Pittsburgh
native and former Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt
Angle (pictured right), who began his
career in professional wrestling at the NWA East
Wrestling Academy, mentioned the NWA East
Academy as a place where an aspiring wrestler
can get a start in the sport of professional
wrestling.
"If you’re going to learn, learn the right way
and do it from someone that knows how to do it.
For instance, if you’re in Pittsburgh the NWA
East is here. You can learn from guys there,
learn the proper way, and prove yourself that
way," stated Angle during the interview on the
WWE's “Byte This” internet talk show.
The PWX Academy has a team of instructors more
than qualified to teach the finer aspects of the
sport of professional wrestling, and who have
the knowledge, expertise, and ability to
instruct the basics of the sport to the students
of the school. The PWX Academy offers students
the most fundamentally sound training around,
where students can concentrate on learning the
skills needed to pursue a career in the sport of
professional wrestling.
While many wrestling schools may charge
outrageous prices, and have a questionable track
record, the PWX Academy provides a complete and
comprehensive (not to mention rigorous) training
regimen, with a track record over ten years
long. The PWX Academy will not only strengthen
your body, but your mind and spirit, and well as
teaching the basic and advanced skills necessary
to compete in the squared circle.
How much does all of this cost?
It is actually quite affordable. A
tryout for the PWX Academy costs only $200. This
tryout is necessary to gauge the physical and
mental toughness of an individual, and requires
no previous wrestling experience. The fee for
this non-contact tryout is applied to the total
cost of the training program, if you are
accepted into the Academy. You must be at least
16 years of age to tryout, and if you are under
18 you will need medical clearance from a
physician, and written permission from a legal
guardian.
The total cost for training is $1500. When you
compare the PWX Academy to other training
centers with a similar history and track record
the value is clear. Yes, the PWX Academy will
work with you on an installment play for
payment. No, there will never be any additional
charges or fees! No, there is no specific time
period when your training will end - you will
train until you have mastered the art of
professional wrestling! The PWX Academy is a
school dedicated to creating athletes... that
foundation is part of the tradition the sport of
professional wrestling is built on! We will not
damage our reputation or that of this sport by
offering incomplete or incompetent training.
