9. Attend One Local Show Per Month

If diving into the history of Japanese wrestling feels a bit overwhelming and impersonal, then why not give a promotion closer to home a try? There are more companies and events happening each week on UK soil than ever before. If you live in the US, the same applies; independent wrestling is a booming industry in 2018.

Watching every episode of Raw, SmackDown and NXT and following stories/feuds in another company may feel like overkill, so it might be wise not to attend too many shows. Much like with any new year's resolution, the best plan would be to take things slow and be kind to yourself. Don't make promises you can't hope to keep when little chunks are more manageable.

Each month, take the time to fit in just one local wrestling show. You'll be surprised by how professional the set up is, especially in promotions like ICW, Progress and Defiant Wrestling. UK wrestling has come a long way in a short time, and you'll thank yourself for becoming part of the scene.
