What Is a PUSH in Wrestling? | How WWE Builds New Superstars

What does it mean when a wrestler gets a “push”?
In this video, I explain one of the most important concepts in professional wrestling: the process of elevating a superstar’s status, visibility and momentum inside a promotion. A push can transform a career — or fail completely.

You’ll learn:
• What a push really is
• How WWE and AEW decide who gets pushed
• Signs that a wrestler is being pushed
• The difference between a small push and a mega push
• Why crowd reactions matter
• Examples of pushes that created iconic stars

A push can turn an underdog into a main-event player, reshape storylines, and change the entire direction of a company. Understanding pushes helps you understand how wrestling storytelling works behind the scenes.

This episode is part of my “WHAT IS…?” series designed to teach new fans the foundations of pro wrestling.
