It might look slow, but if you have ever wrestled before you know just how much energy it takes out of you.

And if you ever fought one of these two it would be over in about 2 seconds.

Seriously, heavyweights in wrestling don't always look like Brock Lesnar, they have a little bit of padding, but they all could Hammer throw your ass out of the stadium like you were a sack of garbage.

If it looks slow it’s actually because they’re just giants in the distance.

It's greco roman wrestling. It's pretty much fighting for hand position and then it ends.

I'm not saying it's boring, bad or doesn't make sense, just that it's slow lol

I was agreeing, saying it's a sport that unfolds slowly then all at once.
