It is human nature to aspire for something more than what one has. Even if each one has a different set of gifts, there is still this stain of discontentment which settles in the depth of human complexity. That is why no matter what status one is in, there is always an aspiration for something which one does not have, and this fact is very evident in this world where humans live.

And taking into account the dissatisfaction of people, there is a touch in everything which existed in the world. Just like for instance, you will see some individuals who are desperate to have riches, beauty, fame, and influence. But actually, all of these things lead to only one thing. That thing is no other than power. Such is the concept with the wrestling sport even before the history of professional wrestling took place.

Speaking about wrestling, there is nothing you can ever think of but a violent fight showing the physical fortress of the contenders. And since it is a competition, you will see an even bloodier combat. Each competitor uses his most violent attack to turn over the other. And given the inspiration of being acknowledged as more superior, you will see them showing no mercy to their opponent.

So if you ever want to watch this kind of competition take place on the stage, you must be psychologically prepared. If you are way too soft hearted, then do not even think you can finish looking at the entire competition without being drained with all your energy. You must have the disposition of the Romans before, who enjoyed looking at Christians being tortured in the arena.

To be more specific, it is like seeing two heated enemies quarrel on stage just like roosters on a cock fight. But the good thing with this is that even if the fight is brutal, there is no involvement of weapons. Both players just have to battle each other like Beowulf.

With this, can use any kind of grappling techniques just like throwing, pinning, joint locks, clinching, and any other kind of grappling holds. Actually, this sport is good for only two contenders. But at certain occasions, more competitors will do. As long as the goal of getting the superior position among the others is fulfilled, then one can become the winner.

Speaking of this, there is actually a range of styles which bear different rules. Each of these styles has been taken from both modern and historic influences. Given this, some of the styles which wrestling bears were taken into the martial arts and military fighting style since it is basically the most intuitive defense of humans.

You can attest to this due to the references it has in literature. One proven existence of this endeavor in the early years is the Iliad where Homer recounted the happenings in the Trojan War during the twelfth or thirteenth century. Actually, the origin of this endeavor has been known from the cave drawings which have been identified to have dated back fifteen thousand years back.

And this time, it has already evolved to a formidable sport and a performing art. Now, it is very popular entertainment in Latin and North America, Japan, and Europe. From being a folk sport, it became a professional sport in the twentieth century, emerging from two dominant styles which are the Greco Roman and freestyle.
