We were lucky to catch up with Jack Sirius recently and have shared our conversation below.
Jack, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?
I began really learning the inside of the Pro-Wrestling business back when I was 13 and began to find my way into the business by helping make and sell merchandise for the wrestlers. As time went on I began to learn more parts of the business and gain new responsibilities behind the scenes at local wrestling shows. From running the merch table, to filming shows, to selling raffle tickets, running concessions, selling tickets at the door, designing posters and graphics, and even running social media accounts for local promotions. Then after 6 years of that I finally began training to wrestle and learning more of the in-ring side of the business. I have been lucky to have been learning different parts of the business for so long and have been able to implement them into my career as a wrestler now and use these skills that I helped others with to now market myself.
Jack, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I am a 20 year old independent professional wrestler from Milwaukee, WI. As an independent wrestler I do not have a contract or major company backing me, I am a freelancer and have to market myself and my character to audiences across the world. Even though I only started wrestling in 2023 I have been around the wrestling business for over 7 years learning and studying behind the scenes and now have been able to use what I’ve learned to better myself as a professional.
What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?
I want to live out a dream I’ve had since I was a child. Pro wrestling has been the only thing I’ve ever been consistently passionate about throughout my life, and now I want to do everything I can to turn it into a full time career and make a living off of doing what I love.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
Personally in professional wrestling, the most rewarding thing is getting to bring fun and excitement to the fans coming to the shows. Being able to take them out of whatever may be happening in their lives for a few hours and give them something to enjoy is a very fulfilling feeling.
