Wrestlers talk a lot about longevity.

How to wrestle for 10, 15, 20+ years. How to stay healthy. How to work through the inevitable knocks that come with spending your weekends getting thrown on the canvas.

But after years working ringside in professional wrestling, I think longevity means something slightly different.

It’s not just about having a long career.

It’s about having as much choice over that career as possible.

The choice to take the booking.

The choice to turn one down.

The choice to keep going.

And eventually, the choice to walk away on your own terms.

You can’t control everything that happens to your body in wrestling. Injuries happen. Life happens. Sometimes you can do everything right and still get unlucky.

But there are things you CAN control.

How you recover. How seriously you take the warning signs. How you manage your training and bookings. Whether you deal with problems while they’re manageable instead of waiting until they make the decision for you.

This carousel isn’t really about retirement.

It’s about protecting your ability to choose.

One of my favourite things about working at PPW is that sometimes the wrestlers aren’t the only ones who end up on the treatment table. 😆

This is Joanne.

She’s the mum of one of the wrestlers at PPW, and after hearing about what I do, she came to see me herself.

She’s been struggling with restriction through her neck and wanted to see if I could help.

And I think it’s a good reminder of something I probably don’t say enough:

You don’t have to be a wrestler to come and see me.

Yes, I specialise heavily in pro wrestling. Yes, you’ll normally find me surrounded by wrestlers held together by tape and questionable life decisions. 😂

But the door is open to everyone.

Whether you train, compete, work behind a desk, drive for a living, or you’re simply fed up of something stopping you from moving and feeling the way you want to, you’re welcome.

That’s what Big John Rehab is ultimately about.

Helping people move better, feel better and get back to doing the things they enjoy.

Joanne, thank you for trusting me! 🧡

I’ll now be away from PPW for the rest of August, but I’m back in full force from September 9th.

If you’ve been thinking about getting something looked at, wrestler or not, drop me a message and we’ll get you booked in. 💪🏻

You Are 3 Decisions Away!

3 decisions.

That’s how far you might be from feeling better as a wrestler.

Number one: fix your sleep.

Before you buy another recovery tool, another supplement, or try another recovery hack — look at how you’re sleeping.

Because if you’re consistently getting 5 hours a night, you’re making everything else harder.

Your body is trying to recover from training, travelling, wrestling and probably working a job on top of that.

Give it the chance to actually recover.

Number two: stop trying to figure everything out yourself.

If you’re injured 👉🏻 talk to a rehab professional.

If you’re struggling mentally 👉🏻 talk to a mental health professional.

If your nutrition is bad 👉🏻 talk to a nutrition professional.

And don’t look at it as:

“I’m paying £X for one hour.”

You’re paying for the years of trial and error that person can potentially save you.

You don’t have to learn everything the hard way.

Number three: stop waiting until something becomes a problem.

That shoulder that’s been annoying you for three months?

That knee you keep saying you’ll get looked at after the next show?

That back that always hurts after wrestling?

Stop normalising it just because you’re a wrestler.

I’m not telling you to panic every time something hurts.

I’m telling you to deal with things while they’re still manageable.

Because you don’t need another recovery hack.

You probably already know what you need to do.

Sleep. Get help. Stop ignoring s**t.

Three decisions.

Most people aren’t waiting for an opportunity.

They’re waiting for permission.

Permission to start the business.
Apply for the job.
Post the content.
Change careers.
Walk into a room they don’t feel qualified to be in.

They’re waiting for someone more successful, more experienced or more important to look at them and say:

“Yep. You’re ready now.”

The problem is…

that moment rarely comes.

I stumbled into professional wrestling because I saw an advert and decided to apply.

That opportunity mattered enormously.

But everything that came after it required another decision.

Show up again.
Speak to someone new.
Take another booking.
Put myself online.
Risk looking stupid.
Keep going when there was very little evidence that any of it would work.

And somewhere in the middle of all those decisions, Big John Rehab happened.

Not because I suddenly felt ready.

Not because somebody gave me permission.

Because I kept doing the things the person I wanted to become would do.

I think we get this backwards.

Confidence isn’t the prerequisite.

Evidence is.

You do the thing.
You survive it.
You do it again.
You get a little better.
You collect evidence that maybe you are capable of this.

Repeat that for long enough and eventually your identity catches up with your actions.

So if you’re waiting to feel ready…

Don’t.

Make one decision today that the person you want to become would make.

There is a version of pro wrestling everyone falls in love with first.

Then the bumps start adding up.

The recovery stops happening.

And somewhere in there, wrestling starts feeling like something you survive instead of something you love.

Most people call that burnout.
Most people call it getting older.

It’s usually neither.

Tag someone who needs to hear this. And if you want the practical side of getting your love for pro wrestling back — comment PLAYBOOK and I’ll send you the guide.

The best investment you can make is putting yourself in rooms with people who challenge the way you think.

Thank you for your time, JD Smallman . Genuinely appreciate it. 🫡

Now it’s time to put the lessons into practice. 👊
