WWN To Hold Tryout & Seminar In September, How To Sign Up
Today, WWN (which includes Dragon Gate USA, Shine, Evolve and Full Impact Pro as members) has released details on their tryout and seminar which will take place on September 7th in Joppa, Maryland:
The next WWN Seminar/Tryout will be on September 7th in Joppa, MD at the MCW Arena. It will be a very unique experience as the in ring portion will be conducted by NXT Coach and UK wrestling legend Robby Brookside.
We are now accepting applications for this WWN Seminar/Tryout. This is open to wrestlers, referees and managers. You must have completed a reputable training course to be accepted.
We are happy to announce that at least one participant of the September 7th WWN Seminar/Tryout will be selected to go to a NXT TV Taping as an extra (provided you complete the requested documents and tasks necessary). Badass Delray, Max Humberto (Castellanos) Shane Mercer and John Silver have each had matches on NXT TV after being selected from the WWN Seminar/Tryout. In addition, talent from the September 7th WWN Seminar/Tryout will be booked on the EVOLVE event that night in the same venue.
The September 7th WWN Seminar/Tryout will consist of:
-NXT Coach Robby Brookside will teach an extensive in ring seminar where you will learn the techniques you need to be successful in WWE. Brookside will share his over 30 years of experience to the class.
-Stokely Hathaway will conduct his essential social media lecture. These are the tools that can make or break your career.
-WWN VP Of Talent Relations Gabe Sapolsky will give an updated lecture on how to get booked.
-Each participant will get a 5 minute tryout match. This will be filmed in HD with multiple cameras. You will be given this footage to distribute however you want.
-Sapolsky and Brookside will be scouting the tryout matches for the potential NXT and WWN Family bookings.
-You will receive an evaluation after the Seminar/Tryout with strengths to build on and weaknesses to improve on.
We are very proud of the positive contributions the WWN Seminar/Tryout has made to the independent wrestling scene. Over 50 wrestlers, referees and managers have been booked on WWN Family events after being discovered in a WWN Seminar/Tryout. Several have also earned contracts and full time jobs in EVOLVE. Alex Garcia is the latest example of a talent who was discovered in a Seminar/Tryout and earned a booking on SHINE 52.
The WWN Seminar/Tryout is designed to be much more than an opportunity, it is a premium learning experience. You will get a complete education from in ring techniques to how to get booked to social media etiquette and other outside-the-ring tools you need to be successful. These are the keys to success!
Thank you for your interest.

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
