JR comments on young wrestlers not being students of wrestling

"What if every wrestler in any training program or wrestling school were given DVD's of a specific wrestler who the students resembled, wanted to emulate or performed like in the ring? The follow up would include written exams. Gasp... you mean a young wrestler would have to actually watch a DVD and study and retain the info that they were seeing? Yes, that's the general idea. Good role models are needed in all walks of life not just 'rasslin. I know many wrestlers that are big stars today who are some of the biggest DVD watchers of any of the wrestlers. HHH, for example, is a student of classic, old school wrestling and probably has watched the great Harley Race in action hundreds of times. Same goes for classic bouts of Ric Flair. Point is that none of us ever stop learning. Stone Cold was a sponge when it came to watching the greats like Jake Roberts and Ricky Steamboat, who were two of the wrestlers Steve enjoyed watching perform their craft. I wonder what occupies a wrestler's time now days on say, an international tour - wrestling DVD's or "other"?"...More?
