    Many set sights on a future with RPW

    Zachary Fowl isn't a name that many people know across the country in wrestling circles. His name doesn't carry the weight of Eustice, Nakamura, or even Cejudo. Yet Fowl, a 121-pounder from Port Deposit, Maryland, still looks forward to his chance to win a Regional Qualifier knowing that all he wants, is a chance.

    Fowl sent RPW President Matt Case a thank you note expressing his gratitude for his invitation to the Philadelphia qualifier set for November 11th. " I just wanted to thank Real Pro Wrestling for given me the opportunity to live my childhood dream!! It means the world to me and I am very grateful. I think organizations like RPW make America a better place. Thank you for opening this door."

    For years wrestlers have toiled in obscurity to continue their wrestling careers, with little chance to eke out a living perfecting a craft that is rarely understood by the mainstream press. Now with the advent of RPW's Season 2 wrestlers across the country are signing up for one of four Regional Qualifiers with sites on both increasing their longevity as an athlete and getting the sport more recognition.

    Mike Faust an up and coming heavyweight who graduated from Virginia Tech and is now a part of the Iowa Hawkeyes program sees the potential in Real Pro Wrestling. "I think its an exciting and innovative concept that will finally bring wrestling to mainstream America."

    Matt Morkel didn't have a prominent career in college but he is still enthusiastically pursuing the possibilities that RPW offers. Morkel an American University graduate and former wrestler for Omaha Skutt a powerhouse in Nebraska high school athletics clearly sees that RPW is more than just a wrestling TV show.

    "I think RPW is great for the sport of wrestling and everybody out there. I love the sport so much and I think the exposure wrestling will get from the league will open up new doors and households. I know if people get a chance to see it, they will appreciate it and all levels of wrestling will excel. I have gained a great deal from wrestling and the more people who can learn about the sport and benefit from it the better we all will be."

    With attitudes like Fowl's, Faust's, and Morkel's, Real Pro Wrestling's Season 2 is a success in the making. The more the wrestling community sees the potential for the sport on television and in live events, the more wrestling supporters will want to support the efforts of RPW.

    Fans of wrestling have four great opportunities to see the Real Pro Wrestling qualifiers with the first event in San Jose, California October 28th, followed by the November 4th event in Mt. Vernon, Iowa. November 11th the Eastern Regional Qualifier in Philadelphia with the last qualifier occurring November 18th in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
