Wrestling

Wrestling is a combat sport involving physical competition between two individuals who try to gain control over each other through grappling techniques. It typically encompasses both striking and non-striking moves and can be contested in various styles, including amateur wrestling, professional wrestling, and folk wrestling. In amateur wrestling, which includes formats like freestyle and Greco-Roman, competitors aim to score points through takedowns, reversals, and pins. Professional wrestling, on the other hand, is characterized by scripted matches with predetermined outcomes, focusing on entertainment and storytelling, rather than purely competitive aspects. Wrestling has a rich history and is an important cultural activity in many societies, often featured in the Olympics as a traditional sport. It emphasizes strength, technique, endurance, and strategy, making it a physically demanding discipline that requires athletic ability and skill.
