Wrestlers, have you ever been told to change the way that you present yourself in order to be more accepted/successful? Give an example if you're up for it.

❗️MAJOR NEWS OUT OF NEW KENSINGTON, PA❗️
@eeloneal
has ended the 720 day reign of
@wantedmv
to become the third Wrestlers' Laboratory Champion. Truly, anything can happen no matter where we experiment. What will The Lab be like under the reign of Eel O’Neal?

Name an independent wrestler who's never made an appearance for a major pro wrestling company on national television who, in your mind, is 100% TV ready.
You're not a bother.
You're not a burden.
You're not annoying.
You're not imposing.
Your feelings and struggles are valid. There are people out there who will miss you. Please, don't go.
You can reach out. 24/7. RT this if your DMs are open for anyone who needs to talk/vent.

Shout out your carloads/favorite travel partners! This could be extremely helpful for promoters to see to know who to check out if they're interested in booking you.
If you "knew" or worked with Patrick Shea, don't blame yourself for ANYTHING. You're not at fault for putting your trust in him, and you're not at fault for being deceived. You're a human being, which is more than anyone can say for him. Do what you need to do to heal from this.
Labradors,

📄 Official Wrestlers' Lab Code of Conduct 📄
If you'd like to be a part of or attend a Wrestlers' Lab event in the future, this is absolutely required reading. We're not perfect. We're trying our best. Transparency. Accountability. Action. Thank you all.
Ready to kick 2024 off with some mayhem?! The Lab was overdue for a stop at THE MECCA, so we need all the Labradors to come out and show your turtle power! Costumes/cosplays encouraged. Let's make this a sequel that the wrestling world will never forget!
@RealHannahLori
We are among the endless parade of companies that won't ever book someone like you. Trans people who are trying to live happily DREAM that they won't have to ever cross paths with bigots, and yet here you are being the absolute worst. Sorry, but you don't deserve your dream.
A lot of emotions after
#SHOWABUNGA2
. Mostly, feeling validated. Thank you all for welcoming us back to The Mecca in such a grand fashion. The energy was EVERYTHING. Extremely surreal to see and experience the crowd that we had today.
Joshua Wavra will not be involved in, or welcomed to attend, any Wrestlers' Laboratory events. The funds donated to sponsor them for ALCHEMY have been rerouted to The Trevor Project.
If you work with us, we don't want you to be anything other than yourself. In the ring. In the locker room. It doesn't matter. This is not the promotion where you have to pretend. This is not the promotion where you can't speak your mind. This is not the promotion to feel rigid.

@ziggyhaim
returns to The Lab to face the debuting
@Delilah_Doom

Did a little independent research and learned that Doom has been a dream opponent of Haim's for years. If this could be Ziggy's last year, let's do it right.
🎟
ATTN: Wrestlers, refs, managers, broadcast & production folks, photographers, etc.
Please do not just tag along/show up to
#ChemicalMV
unless it's been cleared with us. We're trying to be very deliberate about the headcount & are keeping tight records of vaccinations & testing.
Racism.
Homophobia.
Transphobia.
These things have no place in the world, no place in wrestling, and no place at Lab events. We have a strict Code of Conduct pinned to our profile.
We don't care who you are. Fan. Worker. Crew. Even our own staff. It will be dealt with.
Zero tolerance for abuse.
Zero tolerance for harassment.
Zero tolerance for pestering.
Zero tolerance for pressuring.
Zero tolerance for grooming.
If your presence creates unease in any way, shape, or form, you are not welcome in our locker room. Plain and simple.

For the first time, The Lab brings the experiment to The Steel City in full force, and it's gonna be a PARTY. 🧪🎉
Lab staples. Major debuts. 3 championship bouts! Wait...3?! 🤔 Do not miss it! 🤳 🎟 Order now!
Choosing your name must be such an empowering feeling. Maybe it's the reason that pro wrestling resonates with the LGBTQA+ community so much. The concept of deciding who you are and putting it on display even when you're nervous. Working through that. Gaining strength. Admirable.
Experience doesn't excuse being a prick.
Potential doesn't excuse being a prick.
A contract doesn't excuse being a prick.
Popularity doesn't excuse being a prick.
Being a promoter doesn't excuse being a prick.
Influence doesn't excuse being a prick.
Don't be a prick. Simple. 👍
If you're unable to wear a mask properly for a two to three hour wrestling show out of respect to your fellow fans and the talent and crew who badly want to entertain you, you are unqualified to experience it live. Stay home. Watch it online. 'No Mask, No Entry' is a no-brainer.
🥷🐢 DEBUT ALERT! 🐢🥷
'The Babe With the Power' arrives in The Lab on 5/13 at
@H2OWrestlingCtr

Normalize everyone in locker rooms being friendly to one another regardless of experience level. Normalize people in the business talking about pro wrestling like the fans that we are. Normalize maintaining professionalism while being open to creating friendships & a family vibe.
😈 DEMON VS. DOOM 💪
On Sunday May 26th at
#OHMYGLOB
, 'The Kick Demon'
@Janai_Kai
makes her LAB debut against 'The Queen of Aerobic Style'
@Delilah_Doom
! Don't miss out on this epic, first-time clash!
🎟
Don't let whether or not you're booked this week define what you've accomplished, who you are, or who you will be. Remember the circumstances. Remember the sacrifices. Keep doing the work that you can. Bend yourself, but don't break yourself. Be kind to yourself. You can.
Hearing talent and crew express how much fun they had, or how comfortable they felt even as they met many people for the first time, means the world to us. Make moments. Make memories. Make something meaningful by doing something different.
Thank you all. 💜
Here's a good look at the brand new Wrestlers' Laboratory Championship. The turnbuckle equals signs represent open-gender, equal-opportunity competition. The hearts carried over from the previous belt design. Thank you to our amazing fans.

Any talent who comes through our door in the future, just know that our goal is do whatever we can - even if we only book you once - to lend our platform to your eventual superstardom. We don't need to be a chapter in your autobiography; just a sentence will do. 🌟🤩🌟

The debut episode of
#ALCHEMY
.
The Lab debuts of four of independent wrestling's best up-and-comers. Who will make an impression in their first experiment?
With the amount of talent and awesome matches you'll see on July 24th, $15 per 🎟️ is an absolute STEAL.
If you've ever been to a professional wrestling event at the Knights in Ridgefield Park, NJ, there WILL be something on this SEASON TAPING that you'll enjoy. DM for info!
Everyone at wrestling events should be wearing masks. No question. That was our big mistake. Fans were required to, but talent was excused if vaccinated.
As long as COVID is still out there, we will require vaccinations AND negative tests for talent/crew. Masks for EVERYONE.
PSA: Going forward, our events will feature fewer matches. We've always hovered around 8 or 9; trying to jam-pack every inch of card space bc the list of wrestlers we respect, admire, &/or are intrigued by is long, but for 2024 and beyond, it's consistency & longevity above all.
Wrestling is Gay and shall be Enjoyed Limitlessly, for there is No Hook more well-suited to grab our attention than this Action Clash. This Battle Club that we've joined to escape Violence X Suffering; a Synergy of chaos and community. This Magic binds us to the squared circle.
Why does pro wrestling have to take so many hits like this? We don't blame anyone for having trouble being fans or performers. We don't blame anyone for walking away. This is not supposed to be painful. We're supposed to be having fun.
Consent is not a joke.
Consent is not a *wink* moment.
Consent is not a concept available for heat.
Abuse is real.
Rape is real.
The trauma they cause is real & nightmarish.
If you take advantage of that, you are a piece of shit. Point blank period.
