WWE Superstar Rusev has now opened up a new wrestling school, the KECH Pro Wrestling Academy, in Nashville, Tennessee (h/t PWInsider). An interest form for the academy is also now available online.
Rusev and former WWE Superstar, Gangrel, are the school’s head trainers. Other workers at the facility include Jake Painter, who has previously appeared in TNA Wrestling, and J-Rod (aka Jessica Roden), who has worked in OVW, CCW, and is currently part of the American Gladiators reboot cast.
Rusev is currently active as part of the main WWE roster on Raw. On last Monday’s show, he was defeated by Je’Von Evans in a singles bout.
