Post Drug Rehab Center Training | Wrestling to Stay Away from Drugs

Thursday, 05 May 2021

Drug addiction is a serious problem not only for the user but also for society. Anyone can be a victim of drug abuse regardless of age, social status, gender, and race. There are a lot of factors that can contribute to drug abuse like the environment and genetics. However, there are ways by which people can steer clear of using drugs.

One way is by participating in some sports like wrestling. This combat sport has a lot of health benefits physically, socially, and mentally. With the right goal and spirit, wrestling can save a lot of people from using drugs. Here are 5 ways on how wrestling can help individuals stay away from drugs.

  1. Help Boosts Mental Health

One of the reasons why people use drugs is due to stress, anxiety, and negative thought patterns. Wrestling is not just about getting a strong body but also having a strong mind. Wrestlers need to be focused and alert at all times to help them calculate the opponent’s movements and to react quickly.

Apart from that, wrestling encourages and teaches wrestlers to have a healthy mindset, stay humble, value sportsmanship, and self-improvement. Wrestling also promotes feel-good hormones which help in providing steady mental health. If you have healthy and steady mental health, there is a lesser chance you’ll create negative thought patterns.

  1. A Healthy Way to Vent Out Anger and Strong Emotions

Most people turn to drugs because of the anger they feel inside. To get rid of that negative emotion, they prefer the easy way out by turning to drugs to give them the rush and euphoria that some drugs provide.

Sometimes all a person needs is a way to vent out their anger, frustrations, and negative emotions in a healthy way. Wrestling is a good way to draw out those emotions without inflicting self-harm and using drugs. Instead of lashing out to others or using drugs to get rid of the negative emotions inside, a person can train for wrestling to cool down and let out their frustrations.

  • Creates a Safe and Healthy Environment

The environment is one factor that contributes to drug abuse. When a person knows that he or she has a safe place to go to, it would be easier for them to stay out of drugs. An individual needs to have a safe, supportive, and healthy environment where he or she can always depend whenever in need or tempted to use drugs.

Wrestling training can promote strong and healthy bonds among other wrestlers. It does not only create a healthy environment but also helps people improve their social skills and promotes camaraderie. It would be easier to create easy conversation because you all have something in common.

  • Develops a Daily Routine

People who are recovering from substance abuse have a daily routine while on treatment. Everything they do is on schedule like time for breakfast, therapies, and sessions for the day, time to sleep, and a lot more. Once they are out of treatment, some may find it hard to build a routine and tend to relapse.

Wrestling training requires an athlete whether professional or not to have discipline and create a daily routine. They need to make time to attend their wrestling classes and sessions on time and perform at their best. The only they can perform at their best if they get enough rest and sleep and healthy rituals to keep them in top shape.

With the support and help of your teammates and coach within your drug rehab center in Houston, you will gradually notice that you will have lesser idle time on your hands and sticking to a schedule. Those in recovery who have a lot of idle hours tend to go back to using drugs because they have nothing else to do. By creating a healthy routine and sticking to it you’ll notice a great improvement in how your mind and body work.

  • Adopt a Wrestler’s Lifestyle

If you are serious with your wrestling training, you’ll prefer to spend more time training and getting fit to achieve your goals. You’ll see yourself doing more weight-lifting and cardio exercises even outside the ring. Going out at night to party with friends where there’s a big chance to use drugs and drink alcohol will be less enticing.

Because you’ll want a healthier lifestyle, you’ll skip sleeping late at night and grabbing unhealthy drinks and food. Healthier food options will be more appealing. Changes in your lifestyle and diet can contribute to a healthier and happier mind and body.

Whether you are a recovering drug addict or tends towards abusing drugs, wrestling training can help you stay away from drugs and prevent relapse. Training for wrestling is a good way to build a routine, choose a healthier lifestyle, practice self-discipline, improve social connections, and manage anger and stress in a positive way.

Attendance:   927
The Big O defeated Nick Brubaker with valet Athena, Justin Corino, and Bill Carr in a
Pre – Show 4 Man Gaunlet Match.

PWS Co-Owner Pat Buck informed the crowd that Sid decided to not board his flight and
will miss the show.  900+ were very vocal on Sid’s voice mail as Sid’s phone was called
from the middle of the ring. The # was then given out to the fans.  Sid has called PWS
Co-Owner Eric Tapout five hours after he was supposed to board his flight saying “Hey Eric
man, I was at the deli buying a soda and somebody stole my wallet so I have no ID”.   Buck
explained to the crowd that three additions have been added to the event to make up for
Sid’s absence.  Refunds were offered, nobody asked for one.

In an absolute shocking pairing,  Balls Mahoney pinned “The Rocker” Marty Jannetty  in a
Surprise Bonus Match with Extreme Rules. After the match Balls began vomiting as a
result of several chair shots to the head by Jannetty.

Brett Gakiya pinned CJ Esparza after a Solo Spanish Fly in a very exciting high flying match.
 The crowd seemed to love these two youngsters from Illinois whom made their first
appearance in the Tri State area.

Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg interviewed Sami Callihan whom was cut off by Reality Check’s
Kevin Matthews Matthews and Devon Moore.   Matthews & Moore are both former PWS
Heavyweight Champions and demanded to know why they were not granted a Title shot
against Sami yet Colt Cabana was.   Matthews made it clear to Sami that they have a
vendetta against him and that they will have the last laugh when it’s over.   The
Shockmaster then appeared to a huge ovation (and a few chuckles).  Shockmaster
informed Devon Moore to get out of the ring because Kevin Matthews has a match starting
now

Kevin Matthews beat Eddie Kingston after a wild brawl throughout the building which
included a mysterious guy wearing a Michael Myers Halloween mask aiding Matthews.

Anthony Nese retained The PWS Tri State Title by defeating “Yours Truly” Alex Reynolds in
an amazing technical match up

“The Instant Death Squad” Lucifer Darksyde and Devious won 4 Corners Tag Team Match
after the massive 472 pound Darksyde landed a top rope moonsault for the pinfall victory
which scored a standing ovation from the crowd.

Ring Announcer Larry Legend announced Matt Hardy for the next match.  A lot of people
waited to see whom Matt’s opponent would be as his originally scheduled opponent, Sid,
did not make it to the event (and probably had a lot of angry voice mails).
Just then Sid’s music hit and out came Jay Lethal doing a spot on Sid impersonation
complete with an over the top rope entrance and his rendition of the infamous “half the
brain that you do” promo which got a huge positive crowd reaction.  Lethal immediately
kicked Hardy in the gut and went for a powerbomb.  This turned out to be an excellent
match which went back and forth for about 15 minutes before Matt Hardy picked up the
pinfall vicotry.

The Amazing Red won an Elimination Match against AR Fox, Samuray Del Sol, Brian XL ,
Gran Akuma, and Devon Moore. This was another amazing match with tons of breathtaking
high flying maneuvers throughout.   After Red pinned XL for the win, an angry Devon Moore
and Kevin Matthews hit the ring on the attack.  Red grabbed a chair and warded them off.  
Red and XL got a great post match ovation and the crowd was very impressed by AR Fox
and Samuray Del Sol.  Perhaps the most memorable chant of the evening was “Giiilllberg
Giiiiilberg” at Gran Akuma.

The Lone Rangers with Sam Roberts retained their PWS Tag Team Titles against The
Powers Of Pain managed by The Studd.
The crowd gave a huge ovation to The Warlord and Barbarian whom hit multiple finishers
on Ranger John Silver after the match.

“The Boricua Beast” Dan Maff suffered a back injury during his bout with Jerry Lynn.  Both
of these fighters had huge crowd support throughout this back and forth match.  Maff was
immediately tended to by EMS and is okay.

The Sheik beat Masada with a fire ball after an insane 20 minute brawl all over the building
and onto vendor tables which were quickly turned into weapons. International star Masada
whom replaced Necro Butcher last minute due to travel issues had Wrestling Legend Ox
Baker in his corner while Sheik’s manager WWE Hall Of Famer Abdullah The Butcher was
guiding The Sheik with the Jedi Mind Trick from across the room.

Ring announcer Larry Legend introduced WWE Legend The Godfather whom amped up the
crowd about the upcoming Women’s Triple Threat Match.  Guest ring Announcer Angelina
Love hit the ring followed by Guest Ref Shelly Martinez.    
Reby Sky defeated Spyra Andover and Brittney Savage after Reby pinned Spyra.

“Death Machine” Sami Callihan retained The PWS Heavyweight Championship by defeating
Colt Cabana.
After the match , right on cue came Kevin Matthews and Devon Moore , only this time
followed by a guy in a Michael Myers mask. While Cabana was being helped to the back by
personnel  Reality Check began attacking Callihan a man whom is notorious for closing
events with beatdowns of his own. Jay Lethal hit the ring with a chair to ward off Callihan’s
attackers.  While Lethal was helping up Callihan, Matthews reminded Callihan that they will
have the last laugh when it’s all over.  Out of nowhere the popular Lethal hit a Finishing
combo on Callihan !   Lethal took his shirt off to reveal a Reality Check tank top matching
that of Matthews and Moore.  Matthews then grabbed the microphone and said “for years
this man was telling you to expect the unexpected, so masked man let’s see your face’.  
The crowd chanted obscenities at Reality Check’s newest member The Amazing Red as he
unmasked and revealed his own Reality Check shirt.  This is the first time ever in Red’s
entire career that he has fallen to the ‘dark side’.   As the new and more powerful Reality
Check consisting of Matthews, Moore, Lethal, and Red exited, Callihan vowed that he will
get his revenge on May 4th at Refuse To Lose 2021.
