Setting new standards to make pro wrestling better!
Welcome to the The Superior Pro Wrestling Training Center (SPWTC). The SPWTC was founded in 1991 by Neil Superior, who tragically passed away in 1996. In 1997, John Rambo took over operations of the school by request from NWL Owner/President Dick Caricofe. At that time, the HOUSE of PAIN Wrestling Federation (HoPWF) was established. Unlike any wrestling school around the globe, SPWTC Instructor John Rambo offered students the opportunity to put what they have learned to immediate use in the HoPWF. Since that time, many schools have adopted the practices and training methods developed by John Rambo. There is no "learn how to wrestle, then go out and try it" here. You learn techniques and skills, then get right into an actual wrestling match (before a capacity crowd, each and every Tuesday and Saturday evening). No other school offers its students the opportunity to actually wrestle on a minimum 102 shows a year! This "on the job" training provides a tremendous advantage to a newcomer because, when your training is completed, you will already have had a good number of matches. That's where the real learning actually begins for a rookie. The HoPWF is rapidly closing in on a total of 1500 shows in the record books. Check the facts and see which school was the first and still the only school to offer weekly "hands on" experience in the ring along with free matches for the fans to enjoy. Many wrestling schools try to imitate the NWL's SPWTC/HoPWF, but they cannot duplicate the progress and success found at the SPWTC/HoPWF! Bottom line, new standards of training have been established at the SPWTC/HoPWF which are becoming common place at other schools around the globe. That alone is a major accomplishment in the professional wrestling industry.
Over the past 20 years, our graduates and students have wrestled actual matches against top names such as:
| Afa & Seika, The Wild Samoans The late Yokozuna Headshrinker Samu Fatu Mankind Honky Tonk Man The late Kerry Von Erich King Kong Bundy Rock & Roll Express Hacksaw Jim Dugan Rasta the Voodoo Man Bam Bam Bigelow The Fantastics Iron Shiek Ivan Koloff Marcus Buff Bagwell Jerry Lawler Gangrel Virgil Gillberg Sal Sincere Paul Orndorf B. Brian Blair |
George The Animal Steele Outlaw Ron Bass Cowboy Bob Orton Kamala the Ugandan Giant Larry Zybisco Terry Funk The Headbanggers Cousin Luke Sgt. Slaughter Big John Studd Matt Borne Jimmy Superfly Snuka The late Rick Rude Kevin Von Erich Brutus the Barber Beefcake Al Perez Doink the Clown Buddy Landell Nicolai Volkoff Scott Putski The late "Fly Boy" Rocco Roc AKA Cheetah Kid |
| ...and many other big name stars | |
The Tuesday and Saturday night NWL/HoPWF shows offer the best independent wrestling entertainment the business has to offer at a price that can't be beat! Former WWF/WCW/ECW stars stop on occasion at the SPWTC/HoPWF, and former 3 time WWF World Tag Team Champion Headshrinker Samu makes "guest instructor" appearances. In addition to the weekly HoPWF events, the NWL was the first independent wrestling league to offer actual "shootfighting" to anyone interested (HoPWF shootfight matches are scheduled by request only). If you're looking for a wrestling school that leads the pack in creativity and originality, the SPWTC/HoPWF is the school for you!
At the SPWTC/HoPWF, all lessons are conducted by John Rambo (23 year professional wrestler with 38 years experience in various forms of Martial Arts) and training also includes Martial Arts and shootfight lessons for any trainee interested in these forms of self defense. The school is open seven days a week, allowing any interested prospect the opportunity to fit the training into his or her schedule. Rates are very reasonable, with the option to either pay in full with a discount, or make a down payment with monthly payments. Never before has quality professional wrestling training been so easy to obtain.
What will you learn and how long will it take you to achieve the level of readiness needed to make it big? First off, you will learn everything there is to know about the business. Business politics, business tactics, psychology of the business, the actual wrestling/mat skills, wrestlers, lady wrestlers, referees, managers, announcers, valets, commentators, microphone skills, interview skills, tricks and tactics of television wrestling, making contacts, promoting yourself, overseas wrestling tactics/techniques, extreme and hardcore techniques and all the way down to the best tips/tricks/secrets to saving money while on the road going from town to town paying your dues as a newcomer. Basically:
"IF I DON'T TEACH IT, YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW IT" ~ John Rambo
The recognition and exposure you will receive while attending the NWL's training center is second to no school. John Rambo's reputation in the business draws much attention to the NWL and HoPWF. As the instructor for the SPWTC/HoPWF over the last 5 years, Rambo has already established new ideas and training methods that can't be matched by other wrestling schools. Many future stars will be graduates of the SPWTC/HoPWF and they will join a long list of present stars that got their first real breaks in the business while wrestling for the NWL. The NWL has helped start the careers of such stars as Cactus Jack A.K.A. Mankind (first championship belt Mankind ever held was the NWL heavyweight title belt in 1991), Neil Superior, Super Destroyer Doug Stahl (former ECW tag team champion), Gangrel, Axl Rotten, Sal Sincere, Cheetah Kid A.K.A. Rocco Rock, John Rambo (defeated Ivan Koloff for 1st ever NWL heavyweight title, 1989), and many more.
The length of time training takes depends on each individual. Everyone learns at a different pace, so there is no set amount of time on how long until you earn your completion of training certificate. The student's determination, attitude, discipline, desire and willingness to deal with all the BS that comes with the business, and the amount of time spent on training, all play an important role in a trainee's progress rate.
Can this school get me to the television leagues? No school gets you to those leagues. You must do that yourself, no matter which school you choose to attend. My job is to teach you how to be the best professional I possibly can and I am very good at my job! Do I have connections in the business? Check my profile page and see for yourself. I know a lot of people in this business, but it's your abilities and talents that are going to get you recognized. If you are a good wrestler and have something to offer to this business, you'll get spotted regardless of which school trained you (and I am strictly speaking about respectable schools). Basically, I can teach you how to be the politician, but you have to run your own campaign. It is on the independent circuit where you'll develop a character and make a name for yourself. This is how you start your way to making it to the television leagues, by learning the proper way to wrestle and then going out and hitting the indy circuit.
The SPWTC/HoPWF also offers an international training program for anyone interested but living in another country. John Rambo and NWL president Dick Caricofe will have all arrangements set up upon arrival at BWI or Dulles International Airport in Maryland. Transportation from the airport to the training facilities, room and board accommodations, and access to various employment opportunities (a job is a must for any wrestler waiting for that break) make it all possible for overseas prospects to attend one of the finest training centers in the world. Contact John Rambo for further information.
