That's why I respect the hell out of Justin Credible. He's not just a performer, he's a fan.

That's Crazy.

Its shame that one of the most informative channels gets so little views. This could easily become the "Art of Wrestling" of KZread, knowledge, interviews and cool stories. PJ if you see this, stick with this program. I look forward to it every week and so do others. I'm sure you're not needing advice but I highly recommend spending some more time on here interacting with the fans. Almost every video I see has questions going unanswered. I'm sure you're a busy guy but those fans are reaching out to you brother! I want to do anything I can to make sure my favourite web show continues for as long as possible.

Justin Credible You're best kind good sir! If I'm ever lucky enough to get a chance to meet ya, I'll be sure to introduce myself and shake your hand.... I may have to ask for an autograph though haha * Sorry, that made me think of a question. What's the general consensuses on "marking out" backstage at events? Does it happen? Have you ever seen talent ask for autographs backstage? **And this is a strange one but I guess I'd never know if I didn't ask. Let's just say: Justin Credible, Danny Doring & Tony DeVito were working a local event nearby. Would you guys trade knowledge for page services for a poor ass fella who loves wrestling? For real man! I would literally work for you if I could just sit there and listen to you.

Love the fact that after all the years Funk has been in the business he still loves it and still cares about it - he's a legit legend.

Leaving aside wrestling, this is good life advice. If you want to get anywhere in life, you listen to and learn from your elders. You treat people with respect. You look them in the eye and speak up, in a respectful manner. If you can do that, they will respond in kind. If you do that, they will be willing to impart their wisdom. If you want to learn, you have to ask and get someone to show you how it's done. Respect and enthusiasm go a long way to accomplish that. You also give them your full attention when they are giving you that wisdom; you don't stare at your phone while a text comes in, or surf the net while they speak. If you have to leave or take care of something, excuse yourself and explain the situation and ask if you can pick the session back up in the future, at their leisure. That will bring you success. It's also a heck of a lot faster way to learn than trial and error.

Justin, I've been a huge fan of your since your "enhancement" days, and I want to say thank you for your dedication! My son is 11, and wants to be a pro wrestler more than anything in the world. He already has his plan. Graduate high school, go to college and work on his degree (he wants to be a cop also). He wrestles for his local rec club, and when he gets to middle school wants to wrestle for his school. I will support anything my son wants to do

So if you have an opportunity, could you please give me some advice for a few tips on what I can do to help him and encourage his dreams until he is legally able to train.? And is there ANYTHING I can do, other than show him every piece of wrestling I can get my hands on for him to watch and study? My son is 11, and he doesn't "watch" WWE or TNA, or ROH, or CZW ( we live 10 minutes from where CZW is based out of in Voorhees, and that is where he said he wants to train). He STUDIES them. Thank you again for anything you can offer. I have been showing him your ECW stuff, and loves it, and he wants me to ask you how he can get your autograph. He wants to be a heel, he practices drawing heat from his friends when they are out on the trampoline every day! Thank you again sir!

@@MPHswayze actually I do. My son started moving away from police work, but wrestled throughout high school. He fell in love with filmography in high school. He was on his HS’s tv crew, and won an actual Emmy award for his film direction work in a live stream high school sporting event. He goes to Rowan University in South Jersey, majoring in Radio, Film and TV. He is currently interning for Matt Tremont’s promotion in Williamstown, NJ Hardcore Hustle Organization (H2O Wrestling) and IWTV as a live stream film director and hard camera operator. He also helps with the music selection, sound engineering, editing the events to be ready for distribution. He also helps the company film their vignettes for upcoming events as well. And finally, he said that he wants to start training with Matt, and possibly step into the ring as a talent as well. So that’s the latest update.

I am very happy with Justin Credible for this video because he is spot on 100%. Thank you for the reminder it is humbling.

This channel needs to blow up . Straight from the source right here. Respect.

You can apply this to any workplace setting, family setting, public setting.. etc

This is good advice for any job or business. Learning to treat people with respect is key.

This got recommended to me seven years later, but it's still true in almost any line of work. When you're respectful and observant, you will learn more, and be remembered. If those are the only two things someone important who barely knows you can recall when you get brought up or there is an open spot, you have opened the door for yourself. Being respectful and observant won't guarentee anything anywhere, but being a dick who doesn't seem interested is guarenteed to hurt you.

Its why I like Justin Credible.. He loves wrestling.

Hey Mr. Polaco. I'm a long time fan of the business and the few times that I was able to see you work, you were a heel. I COULD NOT STAND YOU! But having said that, just goes to show that you were an inCREDIBLE worker when it came to honing your craft! A bad guy was what you were supposed to come across as and MAN, did you deliver! I've always been a face type of fan but when it comes to pro wrestling, there has got to be a fan favorite and a hated opponent in the ring at the same time or the match will be boring. You controlled the crowd and gave them what we wanted, night after night. I may have not been a fan of Justin Credible but I am truly a fan of Peter Polaco. keep up the awesome work, we need more people like yourself in the business. Thank you for your time, Sir.

These are wise words and apply not just in the ring but also in the office and common etiquette

something tells me you were hitting some kind of angry nerve talking about the 2009 reunion. It's good to know some people still have that much passion for the business. I regret not knowing this channel sooner. haha

He was awesome as Gillberg.

I love the "because we love the fucking business" line towards the end. I just discovered this channel today and am very enthused with everything you're doing. Thank you Justin.

That handshake thing is so simple, yet I am sure goes a long long way. I have had friends who were Indy guys, they said anytime that Raven was at an event he would work around nude constantly in the locker rooms LOL.

Tony Soprano once said "Those who want respect give respect".

Great video. This deserves more views! Spread the word!

very nice.I remember Aldo Montoya....How time flies!

New subscriber 👍🏾What can I say Justin I missed you and ECW I’m so glad you educating guys like me who is a fan I’m glad you’re still here thanks man

You did make the superkick famous. The entire Japanese population had never seen it before until you knocked out the Great Sasuke with it! When they first saw you knock him out with that move, Japanese people in front of the screens were looking at each other and thinking, WHAT IS THAT MOVE?! I'VE GOT TO DO IT THE NEXT TIME SOMEONE TRIES TO PICK ON ME AT SCHOOL!

Thankyou for your hard work justin

good stuff. If I where young again and had it to wrestle this is the place id be to get much needed knowlege

I just discovered your channel today, but so far I find the videos very informative and well spoken. JC, without naming any names (unless you want to), what is the most blatant example of wrestlers violating locker room etiquette that you've witnessed or experienced?

These videos are gold. I wish I had seen this before. As a wrestling fan for over 25 years, it's refreshing for someone to be honest. Too many "stars" in the business today won't acknowledge anyone else outside of the bubble they operate in. People hate on Triple H, but the guy isn't afraid to do what works. When Batista was getting pushed, Triple H put him over three pay per views in a row. That's how to help someone. Triple H isn't in the spotlight now to promote himself, he's there for the bigger picture of getting guys like Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns over. Thank you so much Justin for your honesty. If young indie guys would listen to vets like you, it would make a world of difference. Thanks man.

These videos are amazing. I like the shit talking/gossiping of shoot videos but this shit is waaaay more productive. Great job!

Digging your videos dude I'm currently going to a wrestling school and training to become a pro wrestler and I watch your videos all the time and they are turning out to be helpful

Watch

Thank, you so much for posting this sir!

2:25 going to use this at work

The superkick is becoming a very common move. It sucks, but the guy should probably just start establishing a new finisher

THANK YOU!! For this video everything you said is 100% true I been in many wrestling looker rooms and I have seen this for myself there's no respect anymore and there's a lot of drama at times and even some wrestlers leave right after there match and get payed

Excelent video!

Justin, thank you for this. I’m new to the business and my trainers are big on etiquette. We follow these rules at our organization and if we don’t we can be reprimanded and even kicked out.

Awesome vid Justin. Updated video maybe 😉

without even seeing the video I was already in the thinking of: if you want to use a specific move ask if it's ok. i'm in the process of starting training soon and of course I already fantasize on moves, signatures etc I always taught a leapfrog bulldog would be nice, and I have recently Seen Kenny Omega use it, my first reaction was: well I better find a way to eventually reach to him and ask if I can use it. these videos are really interesting i'm just discovering them, a good binge watch for sure.

Even when Harley Race was a multi-time NWA champion, he still shook everyone's hand in the locker room, no matter where they were on the card.

Love it. Keep up the good work and content bubba :)

He’s right about the locker room stuff. It was tedious, but you had to introduce yourself to everyone in the locker room. All the indie guys did it, some of the names did...most didn’t.

Just got another subscriber Justin. I'm a wrestling fan for over 40 years. I watched it with my grandpa as a little kid. You may know my dad also named James Myers. George The Animal Steel?

good advice. gave a thumbs up.

Awesome advice, my man. And really applicable to almost anybody.

If I was a wrestler and wanted to know what NOT to do in the business, I'd go straight to my copy of Dynamite Kid's book (Pure Dynamite) and avoid the pitfalls as they read out from page to page. Talk about a delusional and self destructive megalomaniac. God bless Jacques Rougeau.

I thought that this was about what it was like in lockerroom for pro wrestlers. You know, like men snapping towels and trying on their performance underwear, etc.

Very good!

hey Justin thanks man

great videos justin!

So why is it some guys see the kids as having an ulterior motive for being "overly professional"? case example what happened to leroy kincade had been brought up the right way in the business (mentored by alex shane). acted in a professional manner but had the blockers put on him because some people thought he had an ulterior motive.

LMAO if Strangler Lewis were still alive everyone would be coming up to him asking "So... uh... can I do the headlock in my match tonight?

How have I just found out that Justin Credible has a KZread channel??

How about a Pro Wrestling video talking about ways to avoid backstage heat and if you do end up getting heat then what we do in that situation?

A good example of what he's talking about is JBL and Scott Hall. Before he went by 'JBL" he went by just Bradshaw (teamed with Ron Simmons and they had a kick ass tag team) and he used 2 of Hall's moves. the fall away slam aka the sack of shit and the back suplex from the ropes. When WWE brought back the nWo JBL out of respect for Hall stopped using those 2 moves.

Nice shooting JC, gotta be said

Great video.

Superkick…. I think of Chris Adams (WCCW) as really making the superkick a serious move.

Very fucken well said. Same the majority of young guys don't have this view.

WHEN YOU FIRST SUPERKICKED THE GREAT SASUKE, IT WAS LIKE WHEN RYU DRAGON PUNCHED SAGAT TO WIN THE FIGHTING TOURNAMENT IN STREET FIGHTER 1! NO ONE HAD EVER SEEN THE MOVE BEFORE, BUT EVERYONE WAS TALKING ABOUT IT AFTERWARD!

Real Talk!

I've got a (probably stupid) question for ya: do wrestlers prefer to be addressed by their working names or their real names when interacting with fans? Or is it situational, in that if I see you at the venue when you're working, I'd call you Justin and if I bump into you at the grocery store, I call you Peter (or P.J., as I see in some comments)?

So relatable

got it!

Why haven't you uploaded any videos to KZread in the last 4 years? Dude I think you're awesome. Wait a second I apologise I see a video from 4 months ago. My bad!!!!!

didnt even know this still wrestled? i remember him though. What happened where did he go? I follow Monster Factory,New Japan Wrestling and WWE even though WWE is so lame now. I follow Matt Hardy forgot werer he wrestles now LOL.. The Hurricane and some other older guys from WWE are where Matt is now. This video is good stuff though.

I'm currently in training and I don't have the pleasure of being allowed in the locker room to watch the matches, so I went to the promoter and asked if I could do ring side Photography. If you want to watch matches and can't, take the initiative to find a way to do so so you benefit both yourself and the promotion. Easy stuff guys!

Holy hell the shake hands would be the first thing I would do! I'd be marking out so much I wouldn't be able to help myself :3

Would you go back to WWE and if so which show would you go to?

I've got a question about choosing wrestling names (for people just starting out). If an Indy wrestler (that's no longer wrestling) influenced you a lot, is it disrespectful to use part of their name as part of your characters name? Or is it best just to ask the specific Indy wrestler who influenced you (if possible)?

@bradnimbus4836

10 жыл бұрын

Definitely not! As long as you don't copy the name chances are they wouldn't mind at all! Most of the character guys would appreciate the respect you are showing by asking that question in the first place. (May I ask what you're thinking of?)

Justin Credible hi

And now the bucks have burned the superkick out so bad I never wanna see it again. Especially how bad they do it. And the leg slap is soooo obvious when they do it.

The worst I've seen is when a guy will leave right after his match; No excuse or nothing. He just came in, did his thing, got his pay and left... It was a long time before he got on one of our cards again.

Just curious...are there any people who don't want to shake your hand when you're doing your rounds? Do you just skip over them? How would you handle a situation like that? Just curious. Thanks for all the great info!

Thanks for the tips, you left out if your new don't talk a lot in locker room

Hey Justin wasn't your finisher during your 2001 WWF run in fact the Superkick as a matter of fact you and X-Pac tag team finisher was a double superkick named "X marks the spot" i remember that anyway the one thing i don't like about indy wrestling now is the blatant move stealing like you said show some respect to the guy that made the moves famous and popular and by the way beside Shawn Michaels your on the list of guys that execute the Superkick the best in wrestling history

I thought this was going to be like, when you're in the locker room with other naked dudes -- don't look at their packages. Just go to your locker, put on your clothes, and leave.

Credible is happy to be a jobber for life and being the outsiders bag boy 😆 that's funny

By the way, with how you're the owner of the Aldo Montoya character, don't you think it'd be a clever business move if you went into an advertising deal with our Aldi supermarket chain here in England? It seems like a match made in Heaven! You could make tons of money together! ;*D

some of the stuff he says i absolutely agree with... BUT some of it should just be called wrestling POLITICS. and then, this is just me, but what if you just hate the shit that some guys do in the name of "wrestling" nowadays and you just want to stick to the karl gotch, billy robinson, lou thesz, larry zbysco, iron sheik, etc.? i guess you're best bet would be to quit. otherwise you better stick to jobbing, and it's not just gonna last 4 months.

By the way, I'm sorry for telling you to stop swearing, Justin. I know you'd probably snap me in half in real life if I asked you to stop swearing! ;*( David Schultz probably would've killed me if I'd asked him to stop swearing! And New Jack probably would've killed me, brought me back to life, killed me again, brought me back to life again, then slapped me on the cheeks and said, "I'll let you off this time, kid!"

Do you have to swear??????!!!! You should try to reach that higher level of cleaner speech!!!!!!! ;*D Speaking of locker room etiquette reminds me of when I was trying to make a name for myself in the illegal underground fighting tournaments back in the effervescent eighties, and because I was considered too much of a "pretty boy" for them to let me fight at first, all they'd let me do is stand by the ring with a bucket, and wash the willies of all the veteran fighters! But one time when I was buying soap at the local Aldi supermarket, I accidentally bought a highly toxic roll of sulphur instead of soap (because they look alike), and as I was washing the willy of a 7'8" fighter with it, he started screaming in pain as his willy was shooting out green bubble from the sulphuric roll! Then he said, "THAT'S IT, YOU AND ME IN THE RING NOW, WILLY WASHER BOY!" And that's how I got my big break as a professional fighter!

Don't blow another man's spot
