Independent wrestling has always played a huge role in the wrestling industry. Long before many wrestlers make it onto television or sign with major promotions, they build their reputations travelling around the country, performing in front of passionate fans and proving what they can do.
Independent promotions give wrestlers opportunities to develop their characters, improve their skills and gain experience. They also give fans the chance to discover future stars before they become household names.
