Me and Hornswoggle!The internet wrestling community is a unique place because there are no rules for it and there's nothing that you have to know to join it. It's just for people that want to read, write and talk about wrestling for one reason or another. Some people have been a part of it for twenty years. Others may be new. No matter your age or where you're from, you are a part of it as much as we are. I've been writing online about wrestling for the majority of the last 15 years. From 1999 to 2003 or so I was writing a lot on various websites. For the next five years I wrote a lot less. Life got busier. I just didn't enjoy it as much. Once 2009 hit, after I moved on from a job I didn't like and I just started writing more and things kind of took off from there thanks in part to Facebook & Twitter as well. A lot of it was because I was writing at a big site like rajah.com, which then led me to doing my own blog and site that is now tjrwrestling.com where I still write weekly Raw and PPV reviews. I even wrote for JBL's site LayfieldReport.com for about a year before this opportunity came up. Eventually people took notice, things started to grow and people were even taking signs to WWE shows in support of me. It's very humbling. My weekly writing requirements here at WhatCulture.com sees me writing about the product daily which can sometimes be tough if your mind isn't in the right place, but I have been able to do it consistently in the six months I've been doing it. While some may say I'm "lucky" to be in a spot where I get paid to write about wrestling for a living, I'd like to think that I put in the work to earn the job. What's cool about WhatCulture.com is that anybody can end up writing here if they have an interesting voice with interesting things to say. Not only that, but they can get paid for it too. I'd say that over 95% of people writing about wrestling online make nothing from doing it. You can here. It's an awesome opportunity that anybody should explore if they like writing about wrestling. This isn't going to be about me personally. It's about writing on the internet and the things I've learned over the years. With that in mind, here are seven things I've learned from writing about wrestling for fun and for a living.
