Organization
[edit]The name of XWC was inspired by the Extreme Championship Wrestling. The school teaches Professional Wrestling to aspiring wrestlers in the Midwest primarily in the Kansas City area. Its training programs are for professional wrestlers, managers, and referees. XWC is managed by Jordan Rogers with David Cattin acting as head of professional training sessions.[3][4] It accepts candidate from the age of 16 after and a physical evaluation.
