Mr Hughes never looked like he was trained himself. Hes brutal.
Sorry for the long post

Wrestling training and who've you've been trained by is a weird one within the realm of the business.
Looking at it on the surface you would naturally think good wrestlers would produce good wrestlers and bad wrestlers would produce bad wrestlers. Sometimes that's true and sometimes it's not true. It's quite the "contradiction" for the lack of a better word. On the surface
On one hand you have a guy like Mr Hughes who never set the wrestling world alight with his career. Yet if you look at his CV he wrestled (starting notably from 1990) in wcw to WWF (1993) ECW (1993-1996)
Then back to WWF for 2 short stints in 1997 and 1999.
That says right there he was a decent hand. He knew and could pull off the fundamentals with good effect.
That's the weird thing about wrestling training too on the surface. A newbie or inexperienced person could look at Mr Hughes and think "what a loser no way am I training at his school" - yet he could teach you far more than Joe random at Joe Randoms school of wrestling.
Also, at the same time as a contradiction, even the most terrible of trainers can "produce" a tremendous wrestler (which in reality is nothing more than that person that being above the rest)
Yet you'll often find Joe random never did anything.
Confused yet? Lol.0 -

Just to add to that, Jeff and Matt Hardy didn't recieve any training prior to starting in the business. They mostly taught themselves by setting up their own wrestling promotion and copying moves they saw on tv. They were later trained by Dory Funk Jr but that was after WWE signed them. Of course that being said, Jeff wasn't exactly known for his wrestling ability but they still built a career out of the stuff they did in the ring.
Also, Lance Storm and Chris Jericho were both trained at the Hart Brothers Wrestling Camp but the Harts never even trained them. They were trained by Ed Langley who was a referee and a local wrestler named Brad Young.0 -
