Lance Storm Explains The One Quality He Looks For In Young Wrestlers

Lance Storm explains the one quality he looks for in young wrestlers, noting that unselfishness is a trait he looks for.

Lance is a former wrestler who has become a coach in the world of professional wrestling, as well as being a producer for TNA.

While speaking to The Wrestling Classic in a new interview, Lance Storm was asked about what the one quality he looks for in young wrestlers.

“I think the biggest things are those that you can tell also put a lot of effort into making their opponent look good, and it’s that hidden quality of the, what they’re doing while the crowd is looking and cheering at the other guy, and I, I always use Rob Van Dam as an example because everybody knows all the great, amazing, creative offense that Rob had. But go back and look at all the insane, amazing bumps he took to make other guys’ stuff look good, and I noticed that. You notice the guy that changes the crowd emotion when you’re not even looking at him, or allows the camera to stay on the other guy because it’s the other guy’s time, and it’s those that see the big picture. because when, you know, your first year or two, you’re like just trying to… I need to succeed. I need to get somewhere I need to, and it’s like, it’s, there’s a lot of eyes in there, my friend. When you realize that it’s not all eyes and we need the we’s and the us, and this is needed for the company, this is needed for my opponent. That’s when you know, okay, these guys really get it.”

Elsewhere in another recent interview, Lance noted that a part of him is glad he never got to compete in an Ultimate X match. You can read more about that here.
