Are you interested in a career in professional wrestling?  Is it your dream to compete in the squared circle?  Let the MCW Pro Wrestling Training Center (MCWPWTC) help provide you with the necessary fundamentals to succeed in the world of professional wrestling.  
 
Recognized by WWE  Hall Of Fame - Class of 2014 Inductee Lita during her acceptance speech,  MCW PRO WRESTLING and Owner Dan McDevitt were a part of Lita’s training and development at the beginning of her career.
 
The MCWPWTC also helped train other pro wrestling stars such as current NXT referee Jessika Carr, Current NXT Superstar Velveteen Dream (Patrick Clark), and 2016 Ring Of Honor Top Prospect and current WWE NXT star Lio Rush, WWE referee Darrick Moore, and former WWE Diva's Champion Mickie James. 

 
The MCWPWTC trains Male & Female professional Wrestlers, Referees & Managers/Valets. The cost for training is the same no matter which area you wish to train in and all students must complete all 3 classes in order to graduate and receive your first professional match with MCW Pro Wrestling.

Training at the MCWPWTC is broken down into 3 phases; the Beginners, the Intermediate, and the Advanced/Finishing Class.

The Beginner's Class is designed to determine if you have the intestinal fortitude and athletic aptitude to be a pro wrestler. It is open to anyone who wants to find out if they have what it takes, and to give the student a grasp of the basics of the sport. This 12 week pro wrestling "training camp" will challenge you and your body. The Beginner's Class meets every Tuesday & Thursday from 6:00 PM until 10:00 PM at the MCWPWTC located inside the Joppa Market Place.  At the end of the 12 week course, you will either decide that professional wrestling is not for you or you will decide that you are going to enroll in the Intermediate class. In the event you feel like you are not ready for the Intermediate class or possibly missed too many sessions because of other obligations in your life, we would allow you to re-take the beginner’s class.

Beginner’s Class
 
Tuition for the MCWPWTC Beginner's Class is $2000.00 to be paid in full by the first day of your scheduled class. Keep in mind that classes are limited to a certain number of students. If the course is full those wishing to enroll will be wait-listed for the next available session.
 
These classes will be cardio intensive to get you into “Ring Shape”. They will also go over the basics in the ring, chain wrestling, bumping as well as safety and how to protect your opponent and yourself in the ring.

Intermediate Class
 
Tuition for the MCWPWTC Intermediate & Advanced/Finishing Classes is $1,500.00. After successfully completing the Beginner’s class and establishing your foundation in your training MCW will work out a payment plan with you for this class. These classes will get much more involved with in ring training as well as the basics of ring psychology, putting matches together and taking your training to the next level. As you progress this class will fine tune your move set, ring psychology, perfect interviews, assist with character development.
 
During the Intermediate Class you will train with many of the stars of MCW Pro Wrestling as well as other local and national talent. You will basically be taking all of the pieces you have learned through the beginners class and putting them into a functional use. 

The Champion’s Discount
 
If you have enough belief in yourself and you know that quitting for you simply is not an option and want to pay for the beginners, intermediate, and Advanced/Finishing classes upfront. Then we believe in you enough to offer you a “Champions Discount” of $500. Instead of a total investment of $3,500 by paying for each of those two classes separately the total cost will be $3,000 if paid all together at the same time.
 
Requirements to start the Beginner’s Class
 
• Class tuition of $2,000.00.
