[quote="sepia"][quote="Abangyarudo"]I know some people think its a juvenile interest but I like wrestling. I was wondering if there was any wrestlers with AS who wanted to talk about how it is wrestling with AS or just some other people who enjoy wrestling as much as I do[/quote] i love wrestling. there is a mixture of strength, theatre, martial arts and probably clowning. my ex-housemate used to wrestle and also set up (very am) wrestling matches at our house. hehe those were some very entertaining days tho![/quote]

But the strength and skill required perform these matches (i.e lift a 250 pound guy over your head and slam him down or to execute one of those flying acrobatic jumps off a turnbuckle) is very real.
